Ridiculous Thoughts

Bathtime

Spooky had a bath today. She didn’t go willingly. In fact, this lolcat pretty much sums up her feelings about bathtime: She was pretty pissed off at us for most of the afternoon. But now she’s all soft and fuzzy and smellygood. Since we came back from Montana, I decided to give up on keeping [...]

Shmoop

Tonight the kidlet and I watched the original “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” movie, with Kristy Swanson as Buffy and Donald Sutherland as her Watcher. Wow.

Nutcrackers and mice dance to the clash of violins and electric guitarsSlow, as a child climbs a Christmas treeA woman in a ballroom gown waltzes on her own to 4/4 timeAnd all the merry while, a tiny battle rages on the pianoFingers flutter as the stage’s lights flash bright white and brighter coloursShowing Father Christmas [...]
