So, why did I not sleep past seven either day this weekend?

Cats. Motherfucking cats.

Saturday, Jack and Tori decided to chase each other, as has been known to happen. Only after three passes through the house, they decided to take the route that ended with them on my ankles. I don't know which of them landed there first, but it was enough to wake me at seven.

Sunday, at Five Fucking AM, Jack decided to attempt the amazing feat of jumping from the nightstand to the bed, a whole six inches away. Naturally, he missed. Naturally, he grabbed for anything in range, including my arm. I woke up with ten pounds of cat dangling from one claw embedded in my arm. Not fun.

Anyone know a good taxidermist?

As to links:

1. The Forbidden Kingdom Trailer is up! Yes, I know it might suck, but I still want to see it. Jackie Chan and Jet Li together, just like in High Risk (only with Jackie himself, instead of Jackie Cheung doing an incredible imitation).

2. The Kevin Smith Casting Chart, in case you were wondering which regulars were in which films.

3. Tomorrow is Darwin Day, when good little boys and girls dress up as evolutionaries and try to scare candy out of Ben Stein.

4. Ellen Page in a horror movie directed by Sam Raimi? Oh, yes!

5. Planet Earth, inverted. Nifty!

6. The Tragedy of the Commons, explained with Smurfs.

7. The Boskone Preim Schedule is up!

8. Maureen Johnson is holding a contest. It involves literature and zombies.

9. [livejournal.com profile] douglas_clegg on the value of giving away free fiction.

10. Vanity Fair's Hitchcock re-creations are damned nifty. Seth Rogen in North by Northwest and Charleze Theron in Dial M for Murder are my faves.

11. Finally, Yendiopolis needs residents.

I lock our cats out of the bedroom at night. I don't get enough sleep as it is; its just too important to leave to the mercy of the furry kids.

Yendiopolis is also have very slight problems with unemployment and crime btw. All those new residents must be troublemakers. :-)

Why a taxidermist? I tell mine that I'm in dire need of a nice pair of slippers. Or gloves.

Our cats do the landing on the ankles thing to my husband all the time. They usually get threatened with mitten-dom.
