Welcome, Shaun!

Thanks to everyone who’s already captioned in the “Caption Me, Baby” Contest! You can caption along until 6 pm CDT, March 11 – aka today.

Alas, no updates on my car yet – the shop is crazy busy because of all the cold weather we’ve had.

Love this lolcats, of course. :)


I recently received a lovely package from MrsPao. From center bottom, two discs/coins (prosperity and longevity) for Chinese New Year, some items from the British Museum related to Egyptian cats (more on that momentarily), a cute card, an amusing vintage pattern book (you’ll see more of that in the not-too-distant future, I’m sure), my beloved dark chocolate covered rice cakes, gluten-free Jaffa cakes, and a fabulous Shaun the Sheep knitting kit. Thank you, MrsPao!!

I’ve mentioned my fondness for Shaun before. Apparently Mayhem’s fond of him, too…

Nom nom nom nom.” -Mayhem

Chaos was curious about prosperity and longevity. But wait – what is May up to now?!

*sniff sniff* “Longevity I get. That’s a good thing, because we have to keep you company in your dotage, Mom. But what the heck is prosperity?” -Chaos

*sniff sniff sniff* -Mayhem

“Nom nom nom nom.” -Mayhem

“I think prosperity means that if you get treats, we should get treats.” -Chaos

Please note – no Shaun the Sheep knitting kits or small Egyptian cat statues were harmed in the making of this post, although it was a close thing!
