gummy bears

I love gummy bears. gummy worms. gummy colas. gummy anything. But especially gummy bears - so these really perked my interest when I saw them. Not enough for me to buy though...500 bucks for all 5! I always liked the green bear the best..

and we're home...

I got home yesterday afternoon, and came home to two crime scenes. I can't even fathom how they happened.. but here are the pix.
Yes, that is CSI: police yellow tape. I know, we are dorks to have this in the house.
This mirror is like 57 tons. I can barely move it, so I am suspecting that both kitties were involved in this scheme. I guess it's good that the mirror didn't shatter all over the place...

♥ing kitteys..

I don't have much to offer today in terms of blogging, so I will share a picture of a kitten I played with at an adoption fair yesterday. There were tons of kitties at this fair (which I thought was rare, cuz lately there's more older cats than kitties), and they were ALL SO CUTE. I miss my baby kitteys so much. I can't wait to see them tomorrow!

Baby Taro

I'm actually still in Ann Arbor, extending my 4th of July weekend till Tuesday, since my parents are coming down to Chicago then. Of course, that is thanks to a wonderfully understanding husband who drove all the way home by himself so that I could enjoy a few extra days with family :)

I wrote earlier that I was seeing my nephew, but he's actually my cousin's first child, so that would be...my first cousin once removed (I just looked this up on WikiAnswer). How confusing.

Anyway, since I didn't bring my USB cable for the camera, I can't upload the pictures. BUT, I had the brilliant idea to sit the baby in front of the laptop and use photobooth to take a few pix. Here's me trying to force Taro to laugh for the camera. hehehe.
No forcing necessary after awhile though. (He likes buttons and keyboards)

My tribute to MJ

There's nothing that says you're a fan of MJ like a stop-animation video of Lego people performing Thriller. awesome! Now have a great weekend, for real!

Happy Independence!

I'll be heading up to Ann Arbor, Michigan for 4th of July weekend. I'll be seeing my soon-to-be 1 year old nephew. I can't wait. He's freakin' adorable. Pictures to follow next week. Have a good weekend!

You're going to sleep there?

This was Kuro's choice of location for his morning nap. It's been a bit cold in Chicago (it was a high of 63 ! what? where did summer go?), so I think he was looking for a warm place to snuggle. What better place than between two laptops? One Kuro sandwich coming right up!

Robots in disguise...?

I couldn't even tell that was a Tranformer because of the sneaky disguise. Forget turning into a car or truck; put on a moustache, and voila! they become robots in disguise!
