Sunday
Bowling and breakfast were good last night. and her husband joined us. : 137, 170, 183, and —/124 (ironman). The left lane game ended in the ninth frame… and I have no recollection of my score, other than it was 100-something.

<edit>
just informed me that the left lane ironman score was: 154

Breakfast was good. I made shakes for and and waited on the prep line for more shake tins to become available (so that I could make mine). The restaurant was a tad crowded/busy, so I got a few odd looks from other patrons who just saw me standing there looking bored. I found it amusing.

This morning’s sleep was again interrupted by cats. Both of them. Which, on one hand, is a good thing (Xena is getting back to normal); on the other hand it’s not so good (having my sleep interrupted twice).

  • The first time was somewhere between 6:30 and 7:00 this morning when Sissy decided to go climbing in my closet. I’m used to her lying on the comic book boxes in there, so I didn’t think too much of it when I first heard the noise. But it didn’t stop. So I roll out of bed to see what was going on. She was nowhere in sight. *boggle* Then I heard her moving around again. I looked up. She had climbed up to the recently-cleared top shelf. I told her to come down and she did. I had to give her points for ingenuity and creativity, though.
  • The next awakening came around 9:30 when Xena decided that she wanted to sit in the windowsill. This involved her getting past/through/around the blinds. Noisily. Then she wanted to move around between the window and the blinds. Noisily. *braincramp* I took that as a sign that I should get out of bed. I decided to play on the computer. That was short-lived. I wound up curling up in the big comfy chair in the living room. I slept until a little after 11:00.

After returning to the Waking World, we headed to Borders to meet someone (More on this in ‘Toasters). After the meeting, I started on a new drawing. After that, it was off to see Shrek 2 with and . It was fun. And funny. A very good sequel. We went to IHoP for post-movie snacking.

  • Some of you already know this, but here’s the big announcement:

    *** We had our bid accepted on a house! ***

    We met our real estate agent at Borders to sign the offer/counter-offer acceptance. We’ve been looking for a couple of months. A couple of weeks ago, we had an offer in on one that we liked… but it wasn’t accepted; the owner got three bids on the house and someone apparently bid the full asking price. (It was a nice house, but there were a few things that it needed to have done and thus made it not worth quite that much.) If all goes according to schedule, we’ll be moving at the end of June. Details to follow as they become available. But, this means that I’ll have an all-new HALO Command Center… and maybe, just maybe, my ‘Mech. I need to measure the yard and see if it will accommodate it. Of course, I could always just go Yard’Tech scale; there’s plenty of room for that.

  • William Shatner may be coming back to Star Trek. Whether it will be as Capt. James Tiberius Kirk remains to be seen…
  • The theme from Hawaii Five-O and women’s underwear.
  • : Justice League: “Starcrossed” will air on Cartoon Network on Saturday, May 29, at 7:30pm Eastern and Pacific Time.
  • A Modest Destiny
  • There was a trailer for Shark Tale before Shrek 2. It looks promising. And funny.
  • While she doesn’t look as much like Martha Stewart in this picture, Sue Storm does not look very happy. Not even a little bit.

I believe that’s about it for today. Until next time…

Namaste.
