I was glad to hear from so many people who wear seatbelts after yesterday’s post! Thanks for all your comments. The accident is definitely something I think about around this time of year.
Not that you can tell, but I’m plodding along on my very large super secret project. Such projects are the death of knitbloggers, aren’t they?

Stephanie of On the Needles is having a stash sale you might want to keep an eye on.
What would Photoshop look like in real life?
It’s Litter Week over at ModernCat. They’ll compare natural litters, discuss various litterbox gadgets (watch for giveaways), and even talk about toilet training your cat…
Who can relate to this lolcat, eh?! Hmm, I think this one was enacted in my home when Mayhem arrived.
If you’re a fan of The Matrix (the first one – you know, the one that was good), you’ll probably get a kick out of the spoof – If The Matrix ran on Windows. (Depending on how your browser is configured, the video may very well start when you click on that link.)
Reading Update
Weddings from Hell by Maggie Shayne, Jeaniene Frost, Terri Garey, and Kathryn Smith. Four solid stories about weddings gone paranormally awry…
Necking by Chris Salvatore. Very enjoyable vampire chick lit.
What Dreams May Come by Sherrilyn Kenyon, Rebecca York, and Robin D. Owens. Three pretty cheesy stories about “magical romance.” No Dark-Hunters here, alas.
Reflections & Dreams: Reflections / Dance of Dreams (Stanislaski Saga) by Nora Roberts. Hey, I had this in my queue at the library when I was on my big Nora Roberts kick and it just showed up.
Really Unusual Bad Boys by MaryJanice Davidson. They are pretty unusual, but not very bad at all. They might even be a bit more cuddly and well-mannered than bad, actually.
The Vampire Shrink (Kismet Knight, Vampire Psychologist) by Lynda Hilburn. This was very well-written (if a bit uneven at times) and had an intriguing premise – I have the next book in my library queue already. Please note that this book is absolutely crawling with vampires. 😉
The Wolfman by Nicholas Pekearo. This posthumously published novel is very dark and intense. Recommended – but don’t expect it to be an easy read.
“Hmph. That big kitty thinks he’s such a badass, just because he can leap like a real panther. I’ll show him badass.” -Mayhem
I’ll be interested to see in Modern Cat reviews that horrid, horrid corn based litter that caused me to slip and fall last year…*bad memories of smell too*
Oh, I can relate to there being no snooze button this morning all right…
Ophelia is my wake up call and she does do snooze!!
Mayhem is suffering from Chaos envy? It’s ok, May. You have other attributes.
Get over May! Besides, ladies don’t lead, they “glide” through the sky! It’s much more feminine.
Hysterical Matrix link!
Love the matrix link!
And that is why I feed Mel in the evening.
Of course, there’s also no snooze button on kittehs who want to play…
The ferret is adorable –
hmmm. Someone ought to collect pictures of adorable animals in bibs.
hmmm.
Some time ago you posted about a woman who was looking for knitted fish for a blanket. I made a couple, now i can’t find her. Do you remember, and if so, can you email me? thanks.
Poor May, she clearly needs mommy to pay for some jumping lessons 😉
Great LOLcats link! Seen that one more than once.
just remember May, real panthers just “know” they can leap
About yesterday’s post: thank goodness you were OK. Seatbelts make all the difference! (I bet Princess Diana’s family would agree to that also. I felt so bad when she died).
Hugs to May — looks like she’s having a Monday on a Tuesday.
Chris- Panther or no panth, I’m going thwimming.
The Matrix video could not have been more timely – we just watched the movie last night!
The video was great!
Well, I want to see Chaos leap like a panther!
I have to say, my new Kindle has increased my reading of supernatural romance/mystery style books. Seems like they’re are big in the kindle library. I’ve been plowing through the “Kitty” books, the Dresden Files, Kelly Armstrong books and I just started Twilight. Most of them sell for paperback prices and I can get the next one as soon as I finish one I like.
That real-life Photoshop picture is totally cool.
Love the second LOLcats. The cat in the first LOLcats is awfully pretty.
Hilarious Matrix link! I sent it to #1 and #2 sons, who both loved that movie.
I love the Photoshop picture! Too cool.
hmmm, me thinks that May got pounced.
The birds must be gone for the winter, and Mayhem is already feeling the blues. Chaos must be showing off. But can he fetch as well as May?
Very cool linkage today. I HAZ LAFFS.
Ah Mayhem. I think you’re a badass.
See that’s why I feed everybody before I go to bed. I love the Matrix link!
Hey I thought Chaos was a panther. 😉
I’ve worn my seatbelt ever since Princess Diana was killed in that car crash. The sight of her sons walking behind her coffin was enough to convince me that I never wanted that to happen to my kids!
Thanks for mention my stash sale! 🙂
That Photoshop thing is AWESOME! And “Necking” is a great title for a vampire book… 😛
I *love* that photoshop link!
And who would ever have imagined you could bib a ferret?
Very scary pics of your Neon down there. I’m absolutley religious about seat belts for me and my passengers. I sure am glad you’re here to tell the tale…and I know Chaos and May are too!
