No, I’m not doing anything for Cinco de Mayo other than posting this photo I took in Puebla. Well, I’m baking a banana bread. That doesn’t count though, does it?

Just for the heck of it, here’s another favorite from that trip. Swine flu be damned, I wanna go back! See the whole set from that trip here.

Hmm…this should have posted automagically. I wonder if Flickr’s email to post thingy is broken.

Sometimes the sequel IS better than the original. I think that’s going to be the case with our second snow incident this year in Atlanta. It’s been cranking for about an hour and a half or so and doesn’t seem to be stopping. I’d love it if it were to snow enough to actually cover the grass. I’ve yet to see that since I’ve lived here. It did apparently snow pretty good one year, but I think I was in Copenhagen looking at bigger and better snow. Tak doesn’t seem all that excited about it, but at least she’ll go out in it unlike rain.
Last night I’m hanging out at home and there’s a knock at the door. It’s Casey from down the street. She also takes care of the neighborhood cat colony. Apparently one of our neighbors, Junebug, caught someone dumping a pillowcase full of kittens in our neighborhood. Hey, that explains a lot, doesn’t it? Anyway, he took the kittens, stuck them in his car and told Casey about them. Casey has someone staying at her house who can’t deal with the kittens, hence the knock on my door.
We went to have a look at them. Three of them and they look to be 3-4 weeks old. They aren’t feral at all. They don’t seem to be scared of people and a little rub gets their purr started right up. They all have goobery eyes, but that’s fairly typical for kittens. Mine had that problem too. So, I went home, grabbed a carrier, and brought them home and set them up in my bathroom. They’re eating fine and although I put some soft food for them down at first they really seem to prefer crunchies. I haven’t had luck getting them to use litter yet. Hey, I needed to wash the bathmats anyway. It looks like there are two boys and a girl. The grey tabbies are one of each and the brown tabby is a boy. All of them have white socks. Casey is going to take them back to her house, but if anyone is wanting cute little kittens, I know where you can get some.
