Fergus has really come a long way since we first moved in here and he had separation issues, remember The Howling video?? Just about broke my heart. Since then he's really settled down and is fine if we leave him alone for a few hours.
To make sure he's ok when I leave, I like to occasionally set up the video camera and see what he does while we're gone. He wanders around a little, sniffs the air occasionally but mostly he sleeps by the front door until I come home.
Normally the camera is on the floor by the front door... but this time I set up the camera on the couch instead of the floor so I could see more of him as he wanders around...
This is "The Fergus" couch... a small vintage couch that needs to be re-covered... but until then Fergus has re-claimed it as his couch to snuffle, sleep, roll around on, rub himself and wipe his face on when he's feeling frisky.

Everyone is a fracking tattoo artist now...
I saw this advertised on tv a while back and I knew immediately I HAD to have it. So ridiculous and so fracking awesome all at the same time.
I ran out and purchased 2. One for me (Weeeeeeeeeeeee!) and one for my niece and nephew so they can play "Uncle" together.
I just got some photos from my sister in law and let me tell you ... we like to start them early in the Kramer family. First my brother (who has no formal tattoo training) sat down and started on the youngest. The eldest stood near by in case she had to hold him down. Tattoos are painful and kids squirm.
I think my bro did pretty good for a newbie ... and by the end of the night both kids were fully sleeved.
It will be interesting to see how their tattoos stretch as they get older.

p.s. these tattoos are not real... the tattoo machine is a toy. I'm only kidding. I'm a kidder.

Frack!
So during the holiday weekend Gerry, Fergus and I holed ourselves up in our apartment and watched the ENTIRE first season of the new Battlestar Galactica. All 13 hour long episodes plus the 3 hour mini-series. It was the best x-mas ever!!
I wasn't sure I would like it... because I LOVED the original when I was a kid, but within the first 10 minutes of the show I was soooo into it. The casting is fantastic. Gaius Baltar is my favourite character and the actor who plays him is perfect. The best part is that they film the show in Vancouver, so there are a bunch of Vancouver actors in the show and a lot of the locations are familiar. They even use a BC ferry as a set for part of the space-ship. Pretty funny.
I'm such a sci-fi geek.
They don't swear on the show, but they use FRACK instead of F**K and now I can't stop saying frack. I'm so fracking happy. Frack you! What the frack are you talking about? I bet you could even say "frack" in front of your Gramma and not get in trouble.
Try it and lemme know if you get smacked or not. :)

Whatever...
Ho ho ho... whatever.
Have a good one to all of you who celebrate. For those of you who don't... enjoy your time off. I know Fergus, Gerry and I already have our plans as to what to do x-mas day.
1. Sleep in
2. Lounge around the house in our pajamas
3. Waffles & soy sausages for breaky
4. Take Fergus for a long lovely walk
5. Hit Silver City for a matinée. I'm pushing for Rocky Balboa and I think Gerry is pushing for The Good Shepard (yawn). We'll see who wins.
6. Come home, lounge some more
7. Eat dinner
8. Watch movies
9. Go to bed early
10. Nookie

Jake
Hey Guys
Just got a letter from my pal Jake and I wanted to share a little of what he said about the letters he's received so far.
"I sat down and read them all. It took a little over 3 hours, but afterwards I got up and stepped out of my cell - it was weird. I had forgotten I was here - being caught up in the letters, stories and other peoples lives. It's nice to get a short escape every day."
Thank you to all of you who have taken time to write to Jake and the rest of The Shac 7.
If you haven't had a chance, please take a few moments today to write a quick postcard or a long letter to each of the Shac 7. If you're not sure what to write about... even just a short note introducing yourself and saying hello is a nice start.
Thank you. :)
xoxo
