she's mine, but she lives with my mum still

what's her name

cookie! :)

how old

hmm...

she must be at least 6 now

http://lmfao.org.uk/images/IM000234.JPG this is my favourite one :)

you can't tell, but she's got black and brown patches on her back so she looks just like a chocolate chip cookie

welcome back!

are you not allowed to have pets in your flat?

nope

plus she's lived at my mum's house since I first got her, I don't want to disrupt her

hi again joan!

nikki - my photosite page is down so cannot at the moment post a link

I love your cats patterned tail - very distinctive

she's daft though, if you scratch a particular point on her back, she'll lick you madly.

and if you don't let her, she'll lick whatever's close-by

our henry goes into a trance if you pick a particular spot on his back. I can't usually find it but Jim can

aww!

Cleo just likes being stroked, but if you are reading in bed and she wants fussing she will push the book out of your hands

apparently cookie likes to sleep between my mum and her partner, on the pillows

and once I couldn't find her, but there was a suspicious bump in the bedcovers...

turns out she'd climbed *into* my mum's bed

I'm lucky there - they both like the bottom of the bed. Thomas, my best cat ever who died 18 months ago, used to sleep on the pillow just above your head

aww!

hey did you notice - cat talk without muz and his puppies

shh!

you'll summon him!

I've noticed there's a lot of fondness for cats over here, which is good ;)

we all love our cats here

and a rat person

you can't help that - it's a genetic abnormality

haha

:p

I think my mothering instinct went a bit wrong, I don't like babies but I adore cats

and my idea of soothing is a purring car

er

cat

same for my paternal instinct

not car, I don't like those either.

oh no - I couldn't be without my car - it means independence

I loves my car

I couldn't afford one anyway, so it's just as well :)

mind you it is only an N registration Astra with 113,000 miles on the clock, but it still runs nicely

I'll buy a Lada the day I've finally paid back all my student loan

It's the only brand which works effectively even at -25C temperatures

I have 1992 Landrover Discovery, its lovely, even if it like breaking down at the worse times

student loan - bah - we didn't have that in my day

cars always break down at the worst times - like in the middle of a roundabout

bah, cats are better than cars!

Joan_W: In these modern times, you have to start your debt-circle early ;)

agreed

to both

I posted this a couple of nights ago, but I'll link it just for Joan's amusement (since the terrified look on her face is prolly worth seeing for every cat person): http://bast.ath.cx/pose.jpg

hi yllona

hi joan'

TOD yllona

juhae: is that you?

'lo juhae

nikki_: Yes

:o

your hair is so long :o

Something like 1m I think.

I saw that the other day when I was reading back over the chat logs. A very intelligent looking cat - I like long hair on a man -probably a throw back to my youth

however, my hair is longer

maybe - I can't see how far down juhae's back it goes

mine used to be long enough to tuck into my underwear, but I had it cut because it had so many split ends

now it's just past my shoulders

Joan_W: When sitting on a chair, I can almost sit on it. Around to the level of my hips or so.

nikki - I was thinking of doing the same - but haven't yet got round to it.

I'm thinking of just doing the lazy option and dreadlocking my hair so I don't have to cut half of them because of split ends. ;)

juhae - mine is about the same - but whilst that is okay at your age, I have to put mine into a pleat or a bun if I go to a business meeting

MingVase is now known as MartinRudat

Joan_W: So far I've always kept my hair in a pony tail when at work

hey martin!

hiya yllona.

It has been "clean enough" ;)

I used to have mine plaited, but it got too much hassle

hi martin

I had my hair cut again on thursday, so I'm back in the "wow! it's so short!" mode again

front door just opened - husband back from pub - good, that means he will be making a cup of tea and I could do with one

MartinRudat: that's the plan. i *love* short hair. so easy

it's much more comfortable at night too - in summer, long hair is very uncomfortable at night

Long hair is pretty uncomfortable anywhere if kept open and the temperature is even a bit hot

It's like an oven in your head

I used to twist it and wrap it around itself until it was out of the way

yep. and humid weather becomes a nightmare

juhae: 'specially if it's thick

especially if your hair is curly

well, not as curly as it used to be

nikki_: Add a slightly atopic skin into that and you're off to the wonderland of my scalp ;)

mine too. :)

both cats have just arrived in this room -probably to tell me that their dad is back and is making a cup of tea - they know they will get a snack if I go downstairs

I had better do as I am told - will be back later

so now i have thick curly grey hair, and grey hair i s a whole new phenomenon

give the cats a stroke from me!

I shall

this tea after an evening at pub must be some sort of british custom

http://img83.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dscf001... me with plaited hair

grey hair? kids? >:) =)

kitty love kitty love

juhae: proper brits drink tea whatever the time, whatever the weather!

wicked mud!

mud: :) i had my hair the same way back in the '80s, mine was blue though. the reddish was too close to the color of my skin

awesome, but i figure those braids must be a real hassle to work on

with hair growing straight and all

juhae: just add a little texturizing mousse, and straight is easy to braid

i like the beads, too.

used to take ages to get it done, it was red purple pink and blue, but the red overwhelmed everything when it was plaited

when i had corn rows in college, it was 18 hours to brid my hair :)

*braid my hair

usually people have ended with braids or 'locks after their mohawk has just outgrown out of laziness, i've noticed from my group of friends

since when you spike your hair and just leave them be, they'll dreadlock quite nicely. and if you put any effort into it, you can also plait them pretty easily

juhae: yep. the only way to deal with a mohawk as it grows out. hair length is too uneven for anything else, uless you want to shve your head

*unless you want

Okay, the cat is signalling me it's time to head to the bedroom so she can come sleep on my stomach again. :)

Nights all.

g'night
