Happy New Year! (fanservice for the animal lovers)

[truepenny]

The take-home lesson from 2010 is: don't break your ankle.

Other than that, I'n not doing any kind of Year in Review post. Instead:


Milo, my five-year-old Holsteiner cross (he's half Holsteiner, a quarter Arabian, and a quarter Percheron), is a goofy soul. In evidence, I offer this exchange from last night, as I was untacking him:

MILO: Hey, what's that? Is it a cookie?
ME: It's a polo wrap. Purple, no less.
MILO: Is it tasty?
ME: Frankly, I imagine it tastes like a sweatsock.
MILO: Huh. Yeah, you're right. Totally sweatsock.
...
MILO: Hey, what's that?
ME: It's still a purple polo wrap.
MILO: It could be a cookie. Is it tasty?
ME: It's still gonna taste like a sweatsock, buddy.
MILO: Huh. Yeah, you're right. That's not tasty at all.
...
MILO: Hey, what's that?
ME: Purple polo wrap. Again.
MILO: Are you sure it's not a cookie?
ME: Sweatsock.
MILO: Oh, right. Where's the cookies, then?




I could not get all four cats into the frame at once, but I assure you they're all on the bed.



Left to right, that's the First Ninja, Catzilla, and the Second Ninja.

And off stage right, the Elder Saucepan does what he does best:




Happy New Year! Here's to 2011!

Oooh, horse! :-)

Also, *dies of teh cute* when it comes to kitties. Catzilla looks almost like a Norwegian Forest Cat... Is he?

Highly unlikely. :)

He's the cat we found in our flowerbed. He looks pretty much exactly like a Maine Coon, except he's about half the size.
