青い空 から！

Here I am again, out of the blue. It seems I only update when I need to procrastinate. Well, not really "need" so much as have an uncontrollable urge to do something other than what I'm supposed to do.
I bought my first actual digital camera! And like anyone else, the first pictures I took were of my cats :P I mean, seriously, what kind of cat-owner doesn't? Now you have to endure stories of my dearums.

Jet looks so forsaken. I've been away for so long now, I'm surprised he even remembers me.
But he still has an unrelenting urge to lick my toes.

And here's Jade, also quite mellow. She's kinda schitzo, actually. One minute she's all "loveme-loveme-loveme" and the next she thinks we're trying to kill her. She also utterly loathes Luna, which I can't understand for the life of me. He's a very sweet and passive cat; I don't have a pic of him yet though.


Then there's Jasper. I always knew he was mischievous, what with figuring out how to open doors and all, but then he really started acting up and spraying in the house. We've started letting him outside, and I think it's helped him calm down a bit. It's certainly helped him slim down.


And of course Felix is still around. Grumpy ol' coot.
I'm pretty sure he's the one who taught Jasper how to spray.

And now...

a random Green Lynx Spider that happened to be chillin' on the laundry yesterday.

Time to get back to work, I suppose. This weekend is the Heartland Conference in Kansas City where I will be presenting my summer research yet again. I'm still nervous
