2. The cats responded to my going to Leprecon by magically acquiring giant felted mats which should have taken them well over a week to create. Last night's brushing adventure was a lot of fun for everyone involved, let me tell you what. Also, ow. Also, I am so saying "screw this noise" when I get home from BEA/Wiscon, and just taking the pair of them straight to the professional groomer for trimming and mat removal. I am not going through that again if I don't have to.
3. My whole house is clean! Why is my whole house clean? Because my mother is awesome! Why is my mother awesome? Because she cleaned my house! The first rule of tautology club is the first rule of tautology club.
4. I get a Cat this weekend! Cat Valente is using my house as her base of operations during the San Francisco Bay Area branch of her tour for The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making. She'll be at our best-beloved Borderlands Books this Saturday; there will be cupcakes, and carousing, and all the usual wonderful things. You should totally come.
5. There will be another, probably photo-heavy post about this later, but...I got an Evangeline Ghastly doll! More precisely, I got two; the one I bought, and one that mysteriously appeared on my doorstep in a big-ass box from Wilde Imagination. My squealing, it was vast. Of course, now I have entered the dark realm of the ball-jointed doll, from which there is no returning. Which leads us to...
6. I am allowed to do one fiscally silly thing every time I do certain things, career-wise. As I have done a certain thing (more on this later), I get to be silly, and I've decided that this time, for silly, I want a resin Evangeline doll. They fit more of the clothes, and can wear all the shoes. Specifically, I want the Cemetery Wedding Evangeline, since she has the best face. If you know anyone who might be selling part of a doll collection, please let me know?
7. The new season of Doctor Who continues to delight me.
8. I have finished the Tybalt short! "Rat-Catcher" is 10,000 words long, and has been officially submitted to the market it was written for. If they buy it, I'll announce when and where it will be appearing. If they don't, I'll start looking for something else to do with a story full of Cait Sidhe. Whatever I do, it will probably need to involve gooshy food.
9. Zombies are love.
10. I am hammered enough right now that my response time is slow, and the amnesty on replying to comments on the "Countdown" posts endures. I'll still answer comments on all other posts; it may just take me a little while. Thank you for being understanding.

Eventually you might calm down from buying stuff for your dolls and buying new dolls, except...you come across a new style of BJDs.
...at least my current obsessions are well beyond my means.

I do brush him though. At least 4 days a week. For at least a half hour at a time. And then I vacuum. and then he promptly sheds clumps of fur all over the floor. *glares at Roarke*

A wonderful metaquote regarding this - "Also, Rory is now officially the Daniel Jackson of Doctor Who. That's three deaths in a season and change. Four if you count the fakeout death of last week. This has actually made me far more confident about his future safety than ever, because it's now just a personality quirk. Like how he sometimes stammers, except sometimes he dies."
He also looks surprisingly pretty with his shirt off...

Yes, he does.

Evangeline Ghastly is beautiful. I can't wait for your photos, I haven't seen much of her other than the ads run in Gothic Beauty from time to time.
I totally want to come to Borderlands! My ass is broke right now, but maybe this can by my fiscally silly thing.
Tybalt short? ♥

Your position on this issue is indeed clear. Which is why I thought of you yesterday when I read this fanfic, a chilling bit of Southern Gothic featuring a certain "zombie" Time Lord.
