Reading Update
The Ever-Running Man by Marcia Muller. The latest Sharon McCone mystery is a compelling read – I thought I had things figured out more than once, and I was wrong!
Final Payment: A Posadas County Mystery by Steven F. Havill. It looks like Havill has written quite a few mysteries set in Posadas County, New Mexico. I picked this one up because it featured a cross-country bicycle race, but I might have to check out some of the others.
“Alpha and Omega” by Patricia Briggs, in On the Prowl. This short story focuses on one of the tangential werewolves from Briggs’ enjoyable Mercy Thompson series.
Recently, Amy gave me some good-natured grief about helping her find some wonderful Day of the Dead goodies. 😉 What I didn’t tell her is that I saw the Day of the Dead nightgown at Target while I was buying some black kitty cropped lounge pants for myself… Tragically, the matching black kitty shirt was not a good fit for my body type.
“My goodness, these kitty beds come in no end of shapes and sizes, don’t they?” -Mayhem
“Are these black kitties?!” -Chaos
“You are so right, big kitty! Hmph. Doesn’t Mom have enough black kitties already? I mean, she has me, um, us.” -Mayhem
“Really smooth, May, really smooth… not.” -Chaos
“Ow!” -cat on crop pants, under paw…
Aw man! Those are so cool!!! I wish we had a Target up here… 🙁 The drawstring will be perfect for you… you’ll need the comfort.
Those cats are nuts. You must put the stuff to photograph on the spot on the carpet where you spilled the two pound cannister of catnip…
? But the shirt would look so good with the pants! Are you wearing these things out instead of to bed? Who’s there with you?
Well, as long as we all have our obsessions!
At least you got the pants!
I got a Day of the Dead project bag from Piddleloop. So cute. Love the pants!
Silly kitties. Great pants.
Hehe 🙂 Those are pants for black kitties not black kitty pants.
I love the pants. Very cool.
Cute jammies!
Cute cat pants!
I once made a quilt with lots of Day of the Dead fabrics. Time to get that out soon.
I think Java would be jealous if I brought black kitty pants home.
Goofballs! Seriously, did they pose themselves or did you have to tempt them?
I might just need to visit Target and get my own kitty pants;)
One black kitty on each leg of the black kitty pants! How’d you manage that?
Cute jammies. Target is the best source for that stuff. I’m with Marina, who cares what your jammies look like, or is there gossip you haven’t shared?
Chris- One can never have enough black kitties.
Avon has a black kitty that when you press the paw, it plays “Black Magic Woman” and the tail moves.
Jewel told me.
Cute pants!
(((hugs)))
Dear Chaos and Mayem – Please alert the people at Target that there are also ORANGE kitties in the world and that we demand equal representation in the kitty pajama arena.
Respectfully,
Tigger
cute pants!!!
Cute pants! Too bad about the shirt but the pants are great. It looks like they also make perfect twin kitty beds. 😉
Too cute! I may have to go swing by Target now for either the pants or the shirt (or both)…
Though, sadly, there are no real live black kitties who will be climbing on mine.
Those pants are the cat’s meow, Chris!
Great lounge pants! Maybe it’s the angle of the photography, but May looks almost as big as Chaos.
One catchen per leg! This amuses me. Too cute. 🙂
Boy, the black kitties on those crop pants are VERY realistic!
Unfortunately, after owning black kitties for years and years, I seem to have moved onto grey. My last black kitty disappeared almost two years ago now. I’m still in mourning. They are special, aren’t they?
I definitely need a pair of those.. and the price is right too! I have been meaning to drag the husbeast to Target to see if they have the Halloween stuff out yet anyway.
So now your kitty pants are even talking to you. At this point I may start to worry…
I totally expected to see Mayhem in some black pants — other than her usual attire, of course.
Those are very cute. 🙂
LOL! What fun! Too bad the shirt wasn’t a good fit though.
Target? How is it possible that those are in Target & I don’t know about it…..Hrumph. I guess its back to Target I go.
Damn. We don’t have a Target here. Those pants are *da bomb!*
The black cats seem to like their new black pajama pants/bed! One on each leg? How long did that take?
Can never have enough black cat & accessories!
That nightshirt is awesome; I’ve always wanted to get a day of the dead skull tattooed on me.
Those pants are awesome.
That’s a great post title! I think it’s hilarious that there’s a cat on each pant leg. The last pic looks like twister, in a black cat sort of way. Did you see the day of the dead doll pattern that was in the summer 2006 knit1 mag? It’s something I’ve been thinking about making (along with about eightyninetybazillion other things).
OMIGOSH!! I was reading the title of the post on Bloglines and scampered over here because I thought you had PANTS on either Chaos or May! LOL!
Marcia Muller is really one of my favorite mystery authors.
I *love* your photo with one cat on each pant leg. I’m sure they sleep that way even when you’ll be wearing them, right?
heh, the black kitty designs are always there waiting for you, you just don’t know it till you see them !
Oh I love the way they have one leg each. Too funny 😉
