Coming up next: a blue moon

[katiefoolery]

It's raining.

It's hailing.

I have the central heating on.

And may I just remind everyone that, here in the antipodes, we are currently expecting Summer to be happening out there.  Well, late Spring.  But still.  Where is my sun?  Where is my heat?  Why did I buy all those cute dresses to wear to work if it's going to HAIL??

Ah, so many questions that cannot be answered.

Other questions that cannot really be answered: Where have I been since the third of August?  Well... it can be answered, but it would most likely be full of angst verging on emo, possibly descending into very, very dodgy poetry and ending with a bonus rant about the complete dearth of orange juice and crumpets in the house.  And that all adds up to something completely unsatisfying, so let's skip it and go straight to some random photos instead.

:D

The first one's technically a screencap and it comes courtesy of talking to the Ma on msn just a few moments ago.  I was attempting to understand why Vline lists three services to Wangaratta leaving from Southern Cross at 8:13am but reaching their destination at three different times...

The Ma's response probably made me laugh harder than I should have, really.

This is a photo I took a while back when I was walking home from the supermarket.  The sunset was just gorgeous and I was grateful for my newly-acquired habit of taking my little camera eveywhere with me.

In which my cat climbs a tree and refuses all requests to get down...

And in other news, I would like to assure crazedturkey that her identical twin is alive and well and working somewhere at Forest Hill Chase.

Ah, there goes the hail again...

OMG, your cat is GORGEOUS!

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

Heheh, yes she is. And she thinks she can get away with anything because of it...

[the-wanlorn.livejournal.com]

Oh man, that's a gorgeous sunset.

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

Isn't it gorgeous? And it just kept getting better, so I was sort of walking backwards, just watching it become more and more amazing.

Why hello there dearie! It's good to see you on LJ again :)

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

Hello to you, too! And thank-you for reminding me to head over to IJ to visit you. :D

I'm going to make an effort to be around more often. I miss people...

[elfie-chan.livejournal.com]

It's wonderful to see you! I have missed you!

I think that a dearth of orange juice and crumpets in the house is tragic, but it sounds like other dreadful things have been happening to you. Please accept my commiserations on the weather--rain is bad enough when one is expecting it, but it is much worse when one is expecting summer.

Did Pickle eventually come down?

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

Aww, is nice to have been missed. :D

*squishes Elfie*

The lack of crumpets was particularly poignant this morning, since I was really craving one with peanut butter for breakfast. Ah well. And yes, life has been very life-y of late but I'm hoping it will improve soon.

Pickle did, eventually, come down, although she makes constant returns to her perch in the tree. The desire for food inevitably gets the better of her. :D

[elfie-chan.livejournal.com]

*happily accepts squishes and resquishes in return*

Regarding crumpets with peanut butter--I knew I wasn't the only one who liked crumpets with peanut butter for breakfast! Do you put honey on them, too?

Silly Pickle. I can see why you named her that.

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

Oooh, we share breakfast tastes! Splendid! I very occasionally have honey with the peanut butter, but I prefer it on its own of late. There's just something so appealing about the way the peanut butter melts into the crumpet... Mmm... I wonder if it would be acceptable to have crumpets for dinner...?

[elfie-chan.livejournal.com]

I don't see why it wouldn't be acceptable to have crumpets for dinner, especially if you put peanut butter on them. That's protein, after all!

[bethamphetam1ne.livejournal.com]

Peanut butter crumpets = win

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

And to think I believed I was the only one who liked them!

Yay Pickles!

[bathmat.livejournal.com]

Cats can be so disobedien but then, if you wanted obedience you would have bought a dog.

Re: Yay Pickles!

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

Ah, that is so very true. And she did look very cute, sitting up in that tree...

[silverwerecat.livejournal.com]

Awesome! And Pickle looks really regal up there. ;)

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

Yes, she does a bit. She also looks as though she's defying me to come and make her get down...

[silverwerecat.livejournal.com]

She also looks as though she's defying me to come and make her get down...

Duh. ;)

[bethamphetam1ne.livejournal.com]

I SO hear you on the cute dresses thing!

Me: "It's hot and I have NO summery things to wear."
*off to shops, buy some cute new summery outfit*
Weather: Raining and cold for the rest of the week. URGH!

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

That's exactly it! I had a feeling of doom the minute I got home with my stuff - somehow I just knew I'd guaranteed us all rubbish weather until about March...

It's like I need to go back and buy new Winter stuff or something.

[alankria.livejournal.com]

Bwahaha, your cat. <3

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

Hehe, I know. I love the look on her face - like she's daring me to do anything about it. And it's much higher up than it looks, because there's a sort of slope towards that side of the house.

She loves her tree.

[crazedturkey.livejournal.com]

heheh Pickle is adorable.

ALso what is with this weather?

Finally - I have a twin? *blinks owlishly*

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

You have a twin! She was at the bus stop at Forest Hill Chase the other day and it was scary how much like you she looked. Unless you came for a visit and didn't tell me...

P.S. Weather continues to be crazy. There's sunshine out there right now, but I don't quite believe in it.

[moonlitpromise.livejournal.com]

Cute cat. :3

I wish it was hailing or raining here. Not SNOWING! :[ You seem lucky to me.

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

Well yes - it's much better than snow. But it's supposed to be almost Summer here! I want sunshine!

[erinmacha.livejournal.com]

Absolutely stunning sunset. I am glad you didn't trip while walking backwards to appreciate it. :D

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

Heh, me too, especially given how clumsy I can be even when walking in the correct direction. But it was definitely worth watching!

[erinmacha.livejournal.com]

LOL...I can be clumsy as well. Knowing so, I probably would have found a nice place to sit down safely to watch it instead. :P

[naelany.livejournal.com]

*chuckles* I think your Ma's right though ^_~

*hugs* Glad to have you back again

[katiefoolery.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, she definitely has a very good point there.

It's good to be back! I'm going to make an effort to stay this time. :D

[naelany.livejournal.com]

Yay!!! *snugs*
