Syd's recent updateyness has inspired me to write an actual update too.
We have secured mortgage prequalifications from 3 different lenders!  House hunting is still in progress.  Money should be here by the end of the month.  Of course, that's what I was told last month too.
We have a new kitten named Miles.  He is black & brown stripey patchy.
We also have a new kitten named Mikey.  He is black & white with extra toes and no tail.
Both of these were Sheila's doing WITHOUT consulting me!  So yeah, now we have 6 cats.  At least they're cute.
We also have a fresh, new lovebird named Teej.  (aka TJ, aka Turd Junior).  Be is a black masked blue.  Also Sheila's doing ;)
Last night, Alice and I saw The Brave One.  It's really good.  See it.  I cried so much at the end, but I still can't figure out why.
Then we went to Denny's and blew bubbles in our drinks.  And got sundaes and brought one home to Peaches.  And watched an episode of South Park.
I think we're going to a K-Wings game tonight.  The first preseason home game of the year!!!  :)
Some fun pics I've taken recently:


Barnie!



Barnie with Harold's fat head in the foreground.



The dapper gent himself!



Teej

Still Teej



Chaz.  I like how there's a horse jumping out of his head.



Again, my sweet pansy dog :)



Miles, in his black & brown stripey patchyness.



What would YOU call it?



Neeners, of course, is just a Neeners.



In case you didn't get enough Dapperness.  He won't let Barnie help him with his pin feathers :/

I haven't gotten any good pics of Mikey yet.  But just visualize it... a kitten with thumbs and a bunny butt!  Mikey and Pork have become fast friends.  Pork really likes kittens, but I think one of them got him on the nose the other day.  Right on the front, the most sensitive part, he's got a scratch.  It looks really painful, but I think it is going to be okay.  It's been there a couple days and we're keeping an eye on it.  There's nothing you can put on a cat's nose that won't be licked off in 2 minutes anyway.

I'm sure you don't need me to tell you this, but be *very* careful in taking out your mortgage. Suze Orman has some really fantastic tips on what to look for. I'd hate to see you guys in a foreclosure situation like so many people out there are now. Unless it's a fixed rate, do not sign. Don't fall for the "we decided you don't qualify after all but we can offer you a variable rate." It's BS.

seeing your wall and your sink and your chair... Hmmm. Reminds me of your apartment and your apartments staircase and maybe this is creepy but it reminds me of the smell of your apartment building and how much I miss that, and how comforting it is to be with my friend.

ALL of them are adorable, but Harold is amazing...he looks like a hawk in a parakeet's body - such a tough guy! And Miles is verrry elegant.
