So I thought I'd spice things up a little bit with a video... my digital Sony Cybershot camera has a nifty video function, however, it automatically zooms in and out, so when I move it, it tends to go in and out of focus - so I apologize for some of the blurriness. But at least you get a close-up view of kittens at play... through a door. Normally, BitBit or Pip try and pull Shanks' paws, but they were only mildly interested when I was filming ;)

I'm also sneaking in a picture of the mess on my desk (the right side of it, anyway)... this is the section of my cubicle that is a temporary parking space for papers, invoices, notes, receipts, envelopes, books, oh lord - you name it! There's even a box of cereal, for crying out loud (which I disposed of right after I took this picture because it's been there since 2008 - and I couldn't remember if it has been there since November or December)! Dude, when I find the time, I need to do some clean-up!

1. My sister was in a crafty mood tonight, so she made her first two fleece-blanket-by-kits tonight. I caught her fingers in a tying frenzy!
2. Shanks, being Shanks.
3. Shanks sniffing my finger after I ate my leftover pasta with shrimp... hmmm... shrimp...
4. Pip, blinking yet again!
