first of all I have to say thank you to [personal profile] phantomsgyrl for posting that gorgeous photo of Jake from Vanity Fair... sometimes it sucks being in a foreign country where american mags are about $20.00 (if I can even find them) seeing that photo made me happy!

I had such an exciting morning. I went to feed the cat, and spilled dry food all over the floor (there's a back story to this, which I'll get to in a minute); of course this was after he had woken us both up around 5 a.m. knocking things on the floor, scratching, and generally being a Pain in the Ass! He loves to play when we are sleeping - and now that we are awake, guess what Leo (the cat) is doing now? of course, he's sleeping soundly with Kitty-chan and Teddy.

so the reason I spilled dry food all over the floor? well a couple days ago, just as I was about to vacuum my room, my mom called. I guess that Leo got jealous that I was giving my attention to this piece of plastic (which was really my mom's voice), so he started to make trouble. I heard this noise, like the tearing of paper, and when I went to investigate, I found Leo tearing a huge hole into the bag of dry food, which I'd left on the floor of the closet (the closet is usually closed, but I had opened it to vacuum and forgot about the food!). Leo's done this before, and I usually put his food into another bag or tupperware container, but this time I forgot. So Masahiko put the torn bag into a huge plastic bag, sealed it and put it into a drawer for safekeeping.... Flash forward to this morning, when I went to get more food from the drawer. Somehow all of the food had come out of the original bag, and into the plastic bag, so that when I tried to open the bag, food spilled out all over the floor! Such fun!

anyway, that was a short story made long... its a fine day, so we might take a drive out to see some nature, perhaps a lake. maybe I'll have some photos to post on here when I return.

and then tonight I'll watch Moonlight Mile, another Jake movie...

happy weekend everyone!

I did that before with the dry cat food. I didn't spill a lot but I spilled some on the kitchen floor. All three cats plus the puppy was in there. All of them scrambled to get it, thinking that was their breakfast. It was funny! At least I didn't have to clean up the mess ;P

Hope you have a good day! Wish it was warm enough here to enjoy the outdoors. It's currently 10 below zero. :(

10 below zero? you poor thing *offers you a cup of cocoa and an electric blankie*

it was cold today, but clear and very beautiful. I will miss the nice weather in the winter when I move, but summers are terrible here (rain, hot and humidity)

LOL about your story - my cat helped me clean up the spill this morning, wondering why I didn't put the food into his bowl +)

by the way, I so love your icon - is that your kitty? *squeezes and pets and loves kitty* - so cute!!

Not my kitty. I got it from here: http://agentrosecotton.livejournal.com/51633.html

Lots of cute icons there :)

thanks! I put that in my memories, cause there are too many cute ones to look at!! I'm gonna have to upgrade for more icon storage, I think!

I would die without my 100 icon spaces. I still think they should give us more! lol

Naughty kitty! *g*

This is the behind the scenes on the VF Jake photo shoot. http://s37.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0C2YGM7RWE5CT1B98RU4ZM5J9Q

Oh, Moonlight Mile is such a good movie. Jake is sublime in this. :D

hi! thanks for the link to the jake photo shoot, but it didn't download properly. Is this the same from the vanity fair website? If so, I was able to see it from [personal profile] phantomsgyrl

i'm having a bad day computer-wise. I tried to watch MOonlight Mile (I downloaded both parts before checking) and the sound wouldn't work- I don't have the proper codex on my computer. do you know what to do for that? I really wish I knew more about computers...

hope you are having a great day!

Weird, it worked for me. *shrugs* But yes, it's the same Jake goodness. :D

Um...it could be the AC3. Here is a link to the codec. http://www.free-codecs.com/download/AC3_Filter.htm

*hugs*

you know I spent two hours last night trying to figure out how to get sound, and then I brilliantly realized that I could just download some free codec program - and it fixed it! I'm such a drama queen =(

but thanks for your suggestions *hugs*

Ah, I didn't respond fast enough. *spanks myself* :D

*squishy hug*

no worries (about not replying sooner) - but you are a bad girl *wags finger and asks Jake to start spanking you*
I'm sure you had a good excuse (like looking at Jake):D

and I did figure it out by myself (after accidentally uninstalling my real player - I get really overly dramatic sometimes and do stupid things... its my evil twin, though, not really me) - LOL :P

*hugs*

Guh! *fans self* *dies at thought of Jake asking if I've been a naughty girl* ;P

Oh, don't feel bad, when I feel like I don't understand something, I always get overly flustered and do dumb things too. No biggie. *hugs*

sorry to hear about the spillage of food...but yay for jake pics

yeah - luckily the cat was there to help me clean it up! he just wondered why I didn't put the food in his bowl, though *giggles*

I'm sure you cat thought you were trying to spice up his dining experience. Adding a little excitement to his mealtime.
When the food's all over the floor, it's like going to a buffet instead of just 'ole sit-down dining.
;-)

*giggles* - Hee I like the idea of the "buffet" dining - right off the floor! makes dining so much more exciting, with the added flavors of dust and floor cleaner!
