The weird, weird, weird weekend…and tits!

Okay, so.

The weekend started innocently enough. Saturday, zensidhe and fangly celebrated the anniversary of their creation in some sinister government laboratory and their birth, respectively; the theme of the party was “Mad Scientist,” which afforded many photo ops I may eventually get around to posting. Alcohol, guns, goth chicks, datan0de in a lab jacket…all the usual things one might expect from a party at zensidhe‘s place.

Now, ordinarily, a party at zensidhe‘s place would provide enough material for several LiveJournal entries, not to mention a couple police reports and a sexual escapade or two of the kind that creates moments you look back on later and plow into a parked car. Sunday, though, brought something that has distracted Shelly and I since, so I can’t really post appropriately about the party.


“What did Sunday bring?” I hear you ask. Well, thanks for asking! Sunday brought this:

Shelly and I went for a walk in the park late Sunday evening. This particular park is in downtown Tampa, and while we were on the back stretch of the park, we heard a meowing behind us. We turn around, and this kitty comes running at us as fast as her little kitty legs will carry her, and launches herself into Shelly’s arms, purring madly. She was skinny to the point of being gaunt and very dirty, and we didn’t have the heart to leave her. We carried her the three quarters of a mile or so to the car, and she never protested except to hiss and spit whenever anyone else walked by. Kind of weird.

Now, I was worried that our other cat, Snow Crash, would cause a big problem. We rescued him as a kitten last Christmas (what is it with national holidays and cats with us???!!), anbd he’s quite aggressive and playful. I needn’t have worried. As soon as we got home, the new cat proceeded to terrorize the living bejeezus out of Snow Crash, even though he’s eleven pounds to her five. We named her “Molly,” after the character in William Gibson’s Neuromancer.

And…and…and…

It looks like she’s pregnant(!).


Monday, Shelly and S and I went to Orlando to visit with S‘s other boyfriend and to connect with nihilus, phyrra, and some friends of theirs for dinner and fireworks. The dinner was good, the fireworks were spectacular, I got one of the very few good pictures I have of S:


And I promised tits in the title. Since everyone1 knows the only way to get people to read large swaths of text is to offer them tits, without further ado, I present phyrra at zensidhe‘s party:

1 And by “everyone,” I mean “beer advertisers,” of course.

  1. Well, Shelly apparently is attractive to pussy…cats. ๐Ÿ™‚
    And all the cats know that people are especially sensitive on national holidays.

    I’d try to take a kitten off your hands, but won’t let me have any more cats until my current one dies… ๐Ÿ™ Sad in two ways – wah!!!

    I take it she has wicked claws?

    Regarding the holidays and “Snow Crash” and “Molly”‘s origin, I suppose at this point there’s no reason not to clue you in to the truth, as it’s already too late.

    FATHER (Franklin-Analyzing Tactical Heuristic-driven Elimination Robot) calculated that your dopamine levels could be predicted to be highest during celebratory events, and that you would therefore react most positively toward a simulagent at those times. We then arranged to have the XR-41 and XR-42 Infiltrators intercept you under sympathetic circumstances.

    Everything is proceeding according to plan…

  5. Aww… !

    Molly looks a lot like our first kitty rescue, Merlin. Back when he was a gaunt stray, before he topped 17 pounds…

    And her being pregnant is probably partially to blame for her being lost in the wilderness of Downtown Tampa. ๐Ÿ™ People are teh suck.

    Anyway, she looks like quite a cutie, and Molly looks precious as well. (That’s a compliment, !)

    • Re: Aww… !

      And silly me! I forgot to mention the pic in the middle, which is also quite attractive, and shows off S’s brilliant smile!

      Thanks for sharing a lovely pic of the lady who spends most of her time *behind* the camera!

  8. Snowcrash and Molly? Could you be a little more obvious?
    Then again… I suppose non-geeks wouldn’t get those references at all. So the answer is yes. Yes, you could be more obvious. Well, cool names at any rate. ๐Ÿ™‚

    • (Nods emphatically.)

      I agree. Shot would have been better with the whole face….

      Ah! Now there’s an idea…take another shot, like that one, with the whole face in it. (Adoring fans await.)
