I guess I haven't updated lately because my updates would be limited to:
1) Lab
2) Writing (which I don't talk about much anyway; I just kind of do)
3) Fandom squee
Well, today something happened. Since I don't have anything to do in the lab on Tuesdays, I started volunteering at a small, no-kill animal shelter. Walked dogs up the canal, cleaned a lot of litter boxes--basically what I do at home, on a much larger scale. I love the kitty room! :3 The kittens used me as a climbing tree, and a pretty blue calico named Gracie kept riding around on my shoulders. This tabby-white cat named Traveler kept climbing up my chest and chewing on my necklaces, and a cute little dilute tabby named Tiny kept meowing at me. A few of them have the runs, so their fur around/under their tails is filthy. I tried to wash the worst of it off, but they did not like that. My neck and shoulders are dotted with claw-marks, but totally worth it.
This review seems pretty much 100% accurate, even though I never actually sat through the movie.
Also, I jumped on the brony bandwagon and started watching My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, thinking, hey, if it comes highly-recommended from trusted friends, maybe it's actually good. And it is. It's adorable, fun, charming, smart, just awesome. I guess Hasbro's marketing machine is working on my supple mind, because those FiM pony-lumps of plastic are looking pretty cute...
