cats have claws. sharp, sharp claws. my hands are composed of flesh.
flesh plus sharp, sharp claws does NOT equal happiness. my hands are shredded.
i have learned not to wear pajama pants with dangly strings around the cats. dangly strings arouse their curiosity and therefore cause them to jump and attempt to attach themselves to your crotch in an attempt to reach said dangly strings.
i saw a billboard on the way home from kansas city that had a picture of a doctor snapping on a surgical glove with the caption, "urology: somebody's gotta do it".
yzma has gone from hating the other cats to wanting to wrestle with them at all times. they're finally starting to wrestle back. they throw her around like a rag doll and she still comes back for more.
by the way, we renamed scratch fury: destroyer of worlds to yzma. didn't want y'all thinking we got a FOURTH cat...

90% of people who write "lol" are in fact, NOT laughing out loud. they just can't think of anything else to say at the time...
and since i don't have much better to do right now...

"Would I be correct in thinking that you can neither see nor hear me? Then I'd like to tell you that you smell of pee. You look like the wrong end of a dog."
i'm going to make this short and quick because my internet is being problematic and i'm still trying to figure out why.
scratch fury: destroyer of worlds still does not like the other two cats.
she goes from this when she's alone
to this when the other cats around
simply...amazing.
we had a really big full moon friday night. how did we celebrate? by going to go see twilight, of course... at the risk of losing my man card....i will say the movie was entertaining. i thought i recognized one of the actors but it wasn't who i thought it was. then i was totally blown away to find out that dr. cullen was played by the guy who played mike dexter in can't hardly wait. what a role reversal.... (-:
it's nice to know that there are still friendly and happy people in these rough economic times. just the other day, i saw a guy standing beside the on-ramp to the interstate giving everyone the thumbs up sign. i thought to myself, what a nice guy, reminding everyone that despite all our problems, everything can still be okay. so i gave him a thumbs up right back.

*singing* yes i love technology...but not as much as you, you see...
Scratch Fury doesn't hate *everyone* she simply doesn't like the other two cats. She's really a very sweet kitty one on one that likes to ride on your shoulder whilst you do your chores. :)
She will warm up to them. You're lucky. When I added a new cat the old cat walked around growling and hissing at everyone. Me, the other cats, it was not pretty.
Hey! We're doing great! The baby is due middle of February, so we're excited about that. The work at Selfville is going well and we love our new place. :) So, yup, everything is going well. :) How was Marty?
so as you have probably gathered, we have cats. but what might be news to you is that we have added a third cat to our household. but i'm getting ahead of myself.
a great many people do not like cats. i used to be this way but i'm starting to kinda warm up to them. kinda. although i have made great strides in my understand of why people don't like cats. cats are arrogant and stuck up. whereas dogs will lick your face and follow you EVERYWHERE you go, cats will sit off to themselves and look at you with disdain as if to say "you feed me AND you expect me to let you pet me?"
cats DO show some emotion and they can even be lovey-dovey, but they like to be by themselves and don't want human intruders cramping their style.
side note: kittens LOVE human attention. the little spastic furrballs are hilarious to watch whilst playing.
so we got a new kitten who is orange in color. we introduce her to chloe and lola (our "old" cats) and the resulting chaos was not good. hissing, arched backs, circling each other. the cats do not like each other. the new one seems to not like the old ones even more than they don't like her.
i learned a valuable lesson about simultaneously holding two cats who do not like each other. whereas chloe jumped out of my hand, new orange cat turned into the tasmanian devil, ripping my right hand to shreds in her murderours rage. i have now named her Scratch Fury: Destroyer Of Worlds (thank you, scott kurtz). other names have included (but not been limited to) crush, cheez-whiz, woodstock, furry, dirt-devil and the-always-useful hey you.
new cat also seems to have a cold and took awhile to figure out how to poop in a litter box. so i'm sitting there moving her claws in a scratching motion in the litter whilst wiping her snotty nose with a tissue and thinking "this isn't even my child."
the other two cats are staying away from her and spending as much time behind the welding shop as possible where there are all sorts of weeds, old cars, pipes, and styrofoam that they can play in.
side note: chloe and lola were also "fixed" this week so maybe the fact that they have shaved tummies and a shaved leg might have something to do with their grumpiness.
so it's been an eventful week here in the wells' household.
further bulletins as events warrant.

read below
for those of you who wanted to buy movies from me (see previous blog) and said you would, please let me know when and how to get the movies to you (so far "give them to X person for me" hasn't worked because they are usually people i don't see very often and don't know how to get ahold of to arrange a meeting). thanks yo.
by the way, a guy i used to know called me "claude" today. do i LOOK like a claude?!?!?!
Oh, and it's probably an upper respiratory infection. My kittens had them when I first got 'em. You have to get these drops that you squirt up their noses. Have fun with that.
They'll come around to each other - the new and old kitties, that is. At least, they might. My cats tried to kill each other at first. Then, when I moved and had them in separate apartments for a few days, they even acted like strangers at first when they were both in the same place. But they're still just as in love as ever these days.
sorry, dude. School's been crazy and I totally forgot to call you. I don't have any finals till Thursday, so whenever is a good time for you to meet is probably fine with me.
my two cats, who lived together for years and love each other very much..
HATED each other after getting fixed!
there is something similar to (especially if they are girls) going through menopause. their hormones are all out of whack, and now they have this new thing prancing around. it makes sense they are all crazy. they will all be fine within a week.
awe...some cats don't mix or they are jockeying for position in the family. We had six cats at one time when we found a mother and her babies in the woods. Then we had a house full of fleas!
love the story...cats are truly hilarious entertainment. mine gave us a scare/laugh last night when he got a plastic grocery bag wrapped around his foot. i've never seen a cat move through the house in circles so fast. poor thing!
If your adding more cats to the house then it's a really good thing you are coming to see me and my chiropractor! :o) Maybe Scratch Fury needs an adjustment also:o)
it's a good thing none of my roommates were in here because this post (and that part in particular) made me laugh until my stomach hurt. you're definitely a comedian of sorts.
please let me know what you want on THIS blog, nowhere else. that way everyone will be able to see what's already taken because i know i won't be able to keep track of marking stuff off the list.
opened movies in loved and cared for condition. all store bought. no pirated or imported movies.
$5 per movie, $15 per tv season.
and here's the special: buy 5 titles, get 1 free.
and if you live in bowling green, just arrange a time to meet and we'll get you hooked up so you won't have to pay for shipping charges.

quit looking here and just buy some movies already...
Dan the man, I appreciate your sales. You did me well with 'Donnie Darko.' Here are my purchase requests: Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Kingdom of Heaven Last Samurai Quick and the Dead The Majestic Red Eye Thanks a million, buddy! Hope all is still well.
Hey, I'm sure you've probably heard this before, but I just realized, that you look a little like John Lennon. You should really think about growing your hair out and getting a beard and some circular sunglasses.
Ok, so this is really, really weird, I know...but I saw you last Sunday. My senior class and I were on our way to the Northeast and our first stop was Bowling Green. I wanted to say hi, but knew it would be freaky to walk up to a stranger and say, "HEY! I know you; you're tu_madre on pleonast!" Haha. We were the confused peeps from Alabama.
