The powerline of Darwin compels you! (courtesy

I left work at four sharp yesterday and dashed home to take the kitaens for
their first vetting. Their copious sloppy poo is apparently quite normal and not a
worry as long as they're their normal crackbaby selves. They got their first shots,
worming and Advantage, which you can now start cats on at eight weeks. Neo weighs
1.4kg (about right) and Madam weighs 1.1kg (tiny, but as long as she's healthy and
active there's nothing to worry about — though it'll make spaying her difficult before six months). Claire at the vet's appreciated the story of Neo's name. I got them home, kissed
redcountess, squared the circle, moved a mountain, made ITV 1 watchable,
brought about lasting peace in the Middle East, cleaned the litter tray, fed the
kitties, called
arkady and left for our date. Aaand exhale.
Arkady and I wandered Soho and Covent Garden far too long in the futile search for somewhere with edible food and drinkable beer that didn't have a fifty-minute queue. We gave up and went to Camden to hit Belgo Noord (Belgo Centraal having had the queue problem) and the Dev.
This morning I went to the dentist to get the permanent caps for my front teeth ... my appointment is next Thursday. Duh. Drool.
Tonight I was considering a quiet night in with Liz and the kitties. However, Liz has emailed to tell me that (a) one of the bags of sugar in last night's groceries had burst and the dustbuster's battery is flat (it evidently loses its charge on the bedpost overnight), (b) Neo has been using the storage space in the back of the bathroom as a toilet, so everything will have to be taken out, cleaned or thrown out and lemon cleaner or lemon juice spread all over the affected area. (That would explain the residual odour). w00t. I'd rather be thinking about the movie, really.
