Casa de kitty

Last night was a relaxing evening at JR's, where we had a celebrity sighting of John Carroll Lynch. I did not know his name, but immediately reconized him, he plays the killer in Zodiac, and Drew Carey's brother on the Drew Carey show, plus a million other things. He's in season 2 of Carnival I think. Anyway, he was hanging out with 2 other guys with the same build and baldness, and a kid we predicted would grow into the same mold. I never see famous people, and this was very random. We came home for more Venture Brothers, and I made a good bye card for Lisa in the shape of a purse. I cut it out of paper and sewed on some orange fabric to the front and back, and stitched on a "zipper pull" from a bag of crafty goodies Christine nabbed me from her work. Lisa's moving to Shanghai next week, and I'm really going to miss her lots at work :( David and Elwood cuddle in the flower blanket and try to keep warm. I took Elwood to the fancy ear specialist vet in Malibu - practically out to Zuma beach. This is very sad, but as his ear refused to heal and keeps becoming infected after his polyp surgery, he is now going to have the whole inner part of the ear removed. This means he'll be deaf in one year, and while he'll still have his "ear" there won't be a hole, it will be smooth sewn up skin. I am pretty freaked out by it, but there's nothing else to be done about it. The poor baby has no idea, and I just feel awful.I have set up a space now in the workroom for my sewing machine and craft stuff, and am happy with it. It's nice to have a place to keep the craft mess, and keep it out of the rest of the house. I like my table up by the window and I have a little view of the front porch, green shrubs and the glimmering sparkle of the auto auction decorations.I forgot to mention that i finished my little green pillow with the embroidered iron on transfer of a happy pitcher full of strawberries. I appliqued on roses from an old teeshirt that I decided to recycle here. it's a nice little pillow and I like to hug it white watching movies.Hopefully tomorrow doesn't bring rain, and we can go on a hike at last.
