Which would *you* choose?
« on: October 06, 2005, 04:04:13 PM »

Closeup of one: http://norroway.thelemur.net/view_photo.php?set_albumName=seattle&id=kitty

I think I'm going to get the black one, if it isn't gone yet.

In other news, though I haven't organized it yet, you can see my gallery is back up. The album these kitties are in is full of Seattle pictures, including about 8 from Cascadiacon. HOWEVER, stupid photo developer hit "shuffle" on the CD during developing, apparently, and I haven't gotten around to organizing them yet, so you'll have to search for them. I seem to have an inordinate number of EUOL doing strange faces, though. And a good one of me and MsFish.

I would definitely go for one of the two left-most kittens.

I got the black one. Or, I'm getting the black one. The little one curled up in the bowl. I'm hoping to pick it (her? him? not sure) up tonight.

See, I should never be asked to choose among kittens. I'll just take them all.

I like the rest of your pictures. Brandon is apparently a hard one to catch with a normal facial expression.

I decided not to fight it this time. I regretted not getting the funny one of you and him at LTUE, actually. Go with the funny. Much more interesting that way. Certainly makes for more interesting pictures to show other friends who don't know you guys.  ;)

When you come down, you need to get a CD of Ms. Fish's pictures that she took in Seattle. She got a lot of good ones--and several more of EUOL making weird faces. Like I commented in your gallery, I don't think I have a single picture of EUOL and me with him making a straight face.  ::) Oh well!

I'll see if I can get some pictures up on photobucket and put a link here. We need to at least show everyone the hot man we were drooling over at Wizards.  ;)

Not only hot, but huge. I think he was 9 feet tall.

And I definitely want to see more pictures from that weekend. MsFish says she has a CD for me, but I can't wait! How many pictures are there? Is your email limited in its allowance of attachments? Because I can receive very large attachments. If you wanted to pick out "highlights" and email them to me, I could post them in my gallery. This inspires me to spend my evening organizing and scanning.

I would pick the one that is mostly white, with black over its eyes.

I hope you have a big mailbox...or that you clear these out soon. I sent you a bunch. The best ones, with people in them. But there are still some more that you'll want to get from MsFish's CD--some good sight-seeing shots she took.

Nice pictures, Stacer.  I especially like the one with me looking very . . . um . . . dead in your rocking chair.  When was THAT taken?

About the time that you were reading that book to us and that double chin picture of me was taken. Will link in a little while. Kitten currently discovering home.

Speaking of kitten--he (we now know it's a he) needs a name.

He's all black with socks. Actually, he reminds me of my friend's cat Dr. Seuss. But I can't duplicate names.

Possible names:

Git
Nyarlothep (pronounced Nie-arr-loth-tep)
Black Beast
Semtex

My cat is called monty, and I find it to be sadly not as amusing to say in front of people I've just met. I heard of one woman who called her cat 'prozac' though.
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

Mogget is the name of the cat in Sabriel (the next book I'm reviewing, so I'm re-reading it). He's white, but very mischievous and unconvential, because he's not really a cat. It's kind of a cool name.

I'm liking Selendrile right now, since I just finished re-reading Dragon's Bait (the book I did review). He's a mischievous character as well.

Or Onyx. It's a black gemstone.
