Pirates vs. RL

Niece gingersnapps sent this series of cheery doggie pumpkins to me a couple of days ago and I must share it with you...




( More in here... )

And our Papillons, Faline and Jack, went to the groomers on Friday and have Halloween bows!








Faline doesn't mind wearing a costume, but Jack gets very depressed when we dress him up.

( Here he is in '06, when he was just a baby... )

And here's a repeat of the PotC pumpkins my daughter carved a few years ago, with niece's help...

And finally, aletheiafelinea suggested starting this Icon Squee Meme again, which was going around back in April of '08. Sounded like a good idea to me!

1. Reply to this post, and I will pick five of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of Icon Squee!

As icon squee seemed eminently desirable, I replied to hendercats's post and she picked the icons under the cut...

1. Open your music library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc.).
2. Put it on shuffle and press play.
3. For every question, type the song that's playing. When you go to a new question, go to the next song.
4. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool.

( A couple of them seem right... )

And what's that name mean, anyway? But if everyone does this, it should be fun!

How To Play:

1) Comment to the original post (by queenofthorns, who stole the idea from meyerlemon) with your username.

2) Go back to your own LJ and post the link to your comment because otherwise, no one will know to come fawn over you if you don't tell them about it!

3) Your friends will leave ANONYMOUS comments to your comment about all the many reasons that you are WONDERFUL, and then they will comment to the original post with THEIR usernames and go post the link to THEIR comments and it will be a giant big snowball of love.

4) We will all feel WARM and FUZZY and excited about the KINDNESS OF STRANGERS! YAY!!!


Here's my comment to the original post.

Whooo! Spamming the flist today.

Gakked from yoiebear:

If there is one or more people on your friends list who makes your world a better place just because they exist and who you would not have met (in real life or not) without the internet, then post this same sentence in your journal.

I'll tell you, I had no idea there were so many people in the world that were like me in so many ways.
