New cat claw caps prevent him from scratching the couch to get attention in the morning. Now he just pounces on my chest. Devious bastard.

Hmm… Fosters Freeze is on the walk back from here… Methinks I want a Twister.

Boozy weekend continues… finishing up the sangria at Pitfire Grill after a nice bit of supper. Thanks to Nancy Olson for the heads up.

by Craig Ferguson, an autobiography

I thoroughly enjoyed this book in unabridged audio format, spoken by Mr. Ferguson himself. It certainly added to the charm (reading the book for a bit at the bookstore was interesting, but it can't hold a candle to the audio).

This is worth the read, and definitely truly worth the listen. 

Let's face it, I am a big fan of Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. I can still recite Jabberwocky from memory (and sometimes I sing it the way the Disney animated movie's Cheshire Cat sang it). So I was nothing if not stoked to see how this was going to pan out.

Tim Burton's take on a sort of sequel to Lewis Carroll's Alice stories doesn't feel like it goes far enough in one direction (the sheer lunacy of Wonderland, or in this case, Underland) and goes for a kind of cop-out in another direction by making it basic fairy tale with a fairy tale ending.

It's not bad, per se, but it just wasn't my cup of tea. So I regret to say, it wasn't a very frabjous day for me.
