Jun. 16th, 2007 07:13 pmI have a new cat. I have two new cats in fact.
James' work has an internal notice board, and someone needed good homes for her cats. She was moving to a new house where pets weren't allowed, so wanted to know if anyone would take them. I wasn't sure. One, I had my heart set on another rescue cat. Two. After what happened with Moffet did I deserve another cat. Three. She didn't want to split them up.
But, they desperately needed a home, and we had room in our hearts for them.
We went to see them yesterday, and they're gorgeous. The lady was broken hearted at losing them, but I told her we'd treat them well, and send pictures so she knows they're happy.
They're both black and white. Milo is a boy, he's got a long snout and is really heavy. He also friendly, curious and very laid back. Already he's got stuck behind the fish cupboard and thinks he's at home. Tinker is a queen, and is very quiet. She hasn't moved much, right now she's sitting on the corner of my desk and has been there all day, but I know she'll come around in her own time.
Tex is rather bemused, and Freesia made a point of turning her back on them. I think they'll be okay though. I hope so. In a way it feels too soon to have another cat, and if they weren't desperate for homes I wouldn't have got one yet. But they were, and they're gorgeous. So we're now a three cat family. I'm in danger of turning into a crazy cat lady.
Corey is at his school camp right now, so James and I have been spending some time out together. We decided to head to the cinema to see some of the higher rated films we never get to see. We ended up seeing Fantastic Four which is a PG. We couldn't help it. The plan was seeing it when Corey comes home, because he wants to see it too. But when we got there, the pull was too strong. Super heroes! We had to go see it.
Talking of which. I was at the Metro Centre today and found the Mutant X season 3 box set, and I want! But it's £80, which no way can I afford. But still. *grabby hands*
Man. I still have 15 minutes before Jack. Jack! Have a meme.

turps33. It feels like I've told this story a thousand times, but my nickname is turps. My brother started it. Terri = ter = turpentine = turps. The 33 is because I used to belong to a load of e groups and someone was already using turps, so I added on random numbers and became turps33. I've been that ever since.
2. My journal is titled ____ because ____.
I don't actually have a title. I have no imagination. Someone needs to think of one for me.
3. My subtitle is ____ because ____.
See above.
4. My friends page is called ____ because ____.
Them. I know! I suck.
5. My default userpic is ____ because ____.
I've only ever had two defaults, and have had this one for years. It's Chris! With braids and braces! Which is hot as hell! I think the icon sums up the fannish me nicely.
