What's happening

I just finished reading Gone with the Wind. I figured I should read the book before seeing the movie. It was okay, but seemed repetitive and it's hard to stay interested when the characters are so unlikeable and frustrating.

I'm watching the unaired Kidnapped episodes on DVD. I'm still sad it was cancelled.

I saw two wonderful live shows over the weekend:

• The Wailin' Jennys -- beautiful voices and harmonies
• Liz Carroll and John Doyle -- great Irish music

Drive cancelled

Drive is gone. I'm not surprised; the ratings were bad. I was enjoying it but it wasn't as good as it could have been. I hope Nathan Fillion can find a successful and good show.

Tummy Tuesday

Today's tummy belongs to Sally. See lisaviolet's blog for more tummies!

Cat Pictures

Here are Casper and Simon before we left the house to run some errands.



And here they are when we got back.




Here is Simon in one of her favorite sleeping spots.

April Showers

aren't supposed to include snow.

I'm bummed

Andy Barker, P.I. is canceled already. I loved that show. :(

It's Tummy Tuesday on lisaviolet's blog. These are some oldies of Magellan.

New Music

Here is some new (at least to me) music I'm listening to:

Walking on the World by Jake Armerding
Never Been to Vegas by Red Molly
Waterloo, Tennessee by Uncle Earl
Over the Hills by Lucy Kaplansky

I've also recently purchased more albums by Tim O'Brien and Neko Case. So much good music.

Pet Food Recall

This situation is so sad. I feel for anyone who lost their pet.

A tree hit by lightning

This is a tree on my parents' property that was struck by lightning. Mother Nature is not to be messed with.

Who cancelled Firefly?

The story behind the cancellation.

O.M.G.

The Battlestar Gallactica season finale was amazing. I can't believe I have to wait until 2008 to see more.

Help Save Internet Radio

Sigh, it never ends. Please click the link for how to help save internet radio.

This would be so cool!

I hope it happens... Veronica Mars news

Holy frak!!

It's cold. At least it sounds cold. I'm sitting here listening to Whole Wheat Radio and the wind howling. I need to go out and buy cat food, but I really don't want to leave the house. It's been painfully cold lately and we got more snow last night. The good news is, it looks like the cold streak will finally be over tomorrow!

I also need to go and work with the horse I'm leasing. I hope the owner has been going. My motivation has been about as high as the temperatures. Maybe I'll go tomorrow.

New music

that I'm listening to:

Gary Jules' new album and three songs from A.J. Roach's new CD.

A good song

This is a plug for a beautiful song by a band I like...

All the Good Men

Hubby is such a good boy

He gave me these beautiful roses for my birthday.

It snowed this weekend. The cats wanted to go outside, but weren't fond of the white stuff.

It's been a while

The holidays were crazy (for various reasons), so I'm glad they are over. My TV shows are starting up again. Battlestar Galactica is back and still frakkin' with me. I'm hooked on 24 again and Veronica Mars starts tonight. I'm a little bummed about the news that the final episodes will be stand-alone, but that is still better than no Veronica.
