Reading Update
I know, all the vampire books lately – started out reading one series (the Sookie Stackhouse books), then wondered when the heck the Anita Blake books had gone astray, then people kept recommending stuff… ‘Tis the season, right?!
Undead and Unwed, Undead and Unemployed, Undead and Unappreciated, and Undead and Unreturnable by MaryJanice Davidson. A vampire series that takes place in the Twin Cities! Betsy (Elizabeth) Taylor didn’t want to be the queen of the vampires – she just wanted to own really expensive shoes. We can’t always get what we want… Another fun vampire series – once again, Peeve knows her vampires!

As I mentioned yesterday, Deb of Chappysmom is having a maybe contest – show her pictures of what your November calendar page(s) look(s) like. Here are mine – the first is a knitting calendar that hangs in my kitchen.

The second is the calendar I have at work.

And the third calendar (also in my kitchen) isn’t going to surprise anyone…

Remember this picture? Here’s a new picture of May for size comparison – even I can tell she’s getting bigger!

*glug glug glug*

“See, Mom?! I told you I was getting bigger! Look out, big kitty, I’m going to be big enough to squish you soon!”

  1. *sniff* They grow up so fast!

    I’m a calendar junkie, I have 3 at my desk here at work, 2 in my kitchen and 2 in my living room.

    (Hey, I just noticed we have the same placemat for the kitties food dishes!)

  2. Calendars? What’s that? Would a picture of Benkei’s calendar count? 😛

    They’re cute ones though! I love David McEnery, I think his name is, of the catchen picture fame.

    May! Sooooo cute! Just add water, she expands!

  3. Wow, she is getting bigger. Soon she’ll be dating. 🙂

    I think that I’m at a personal best, both my calendars have already been switched to November. They weren’t switched to October until around the 17th.

  4. I’m a calendar junkie too. I love ’em. Dave always gets me a Beatles calendar for Christmas and it hangs in our kitchen. It’s the one present I look forward to the most, coming from him (mostly because the rest of his kind of lack in the ‘good’ department…he has troubles finding decent presents so resorts to dollar store jobbies, usually). I really like the knitting calendar pic — it looks kind of retro.

  5. you’d think that cats would stay kittens longer, for all the trouble they are… I mean, really. I don’t think mine were done being kittens until at least 4 years old.

  6. Great knitting calendar! I love the old illustrations. May really is growing up – she is so lucky to have won your heart 🙂

    No calendars here, except on the laptop screen — I never seem to know what day it is anyway until I log on 😉

  7. I wondered what was wrong yesterday………Bloglines isn’t pickup up my feed for some reason…..

    Oh, well. Mayhem is just too cute! And, you’re right, she’s truly getting cat-like big.

  8. I must be boring, my calender has no pictures, its just one of those big monthly ones with everyone’s schedule on it. Wow May is getting big, watch out Chaos!

  9. Great calendars! Do you know, I’ve seen that knitting one three times today? It holds the record, so far, of duplicates. Which is good, because I think that picture is great.

    And wow, BIG kitty!

  10. Shocking surprise that all your calendars aren’t black cats. Or purple. 😉

    Oh, Mayhem. I don’t think you’re going to be squishing Chaos anytime soon but you’re so darn cute!

  11. I love your knitting calendar. “Little” Mayhem still has to deal with all that pecking-order stuff. ‘Fraid Chaos won’t give up her top-dog status easily.

  12. Oh oh, those eyes, so emploring…must resist cute kitty stare…must…fight…urge…to…visit…animal shelter! Hey Chris, pop on over to my blog and check out MY cute kitty picture.
