G'bye
This is just to inform the non-existant reading audience that the ownership of livejournal account, "that_darn_ninja", has been transferred. to some guy, I'm not sure who, but he(?) gave me fifteen bucks for it. Anyway, I'm off to set up a bunch of squatter accounts on domain names that will be big business in the terrifying dystopian world of the future. | | Friday, June 9th, 2006 | | 3:03 pm |

Well, I guess I've learned not to just start adding supplements to a planted tank. The cyanobacteria is everywhere, and while my instinctive response -- changing the water aggressively, closer monitoring of water quality, feeding the fish less, and minor gravel-cleaning after every feeding -- seems to have brought the invasion to a standstill, it has yet to make it retreat. Some of the people I've asked about it say to use antibiotics, but that sounds like more trouble in the long-run; I sure as fuck don't want to go through cycling the tank agin, especially not after I've stocked the damn thing. My cat's stitches came out last week, and her eyelids are finishing fusing together. It looks pretty weird, but not so much since her fur has started growing back. Oh, and her name ins't really Odin, or Woden, or whatever -- but people have been calling her that anyway. | | Wednesday, April 26th, 2006 | | 1:36 am |
My poor little Woden
My little cat has had an eye removed; the vet just said there was advanced glaucoma and melanoma in it (with no explanation whatsoever for why he had failed to diagnose a long-standing condition in years prior), and that it would have to come out right away. She -- the kitty -- is home now, and the swelling has finally gone down. She's gotten to the point where she accepts the fact that she will be wrapped in a towel twice a day while antibiotic medication is forced into her mouth... she used to growl with fantastic menace and fight like a wild thing. And the eye, jesus. It's stitched shut, and now that the inflamation is gone, looks like a failed drum -- just a sunken, empty hole covered loosely with shaved skin. Looking at it too long makes me feel as though I am about to cry. She spends most of her time hiding, though today I caught her curled up on the bed, purring loudly as though nothing had happened. She is also starting to take more interest in her food. The vet sees her again in a few more days, and will share the results from the blood tests and x-rays, and maybe the stitches will come out then. He also said that she has been basically blind in that eye for a while now (again, how is it that this escaped his attention for so long?), so any changes in her quality of life will be minimal -- or maybe even a positive change, as right before the surgery, her eye had swollen considerably and was causing her obvious discomfort. He's probably right; I certainly want to believe. Poor kitty. Poor, poor kitty. I don't think this can be said enough. | | 1:35 am |

"Beware the Fish People..."
It's like Frank said. "It's mainstream art, not art you have to look at to try to understand, or have an art degree to know whether it's good or not[.]" ITS FORS THEM WHAT CANT THINK GOOD ITS REAL MURRRCAN ART | | 12:24 am |
Pointlessness
Today, as I drove to work, a hawk of some kind downed a pigeon in the middle of the my lane -- traffic was moving, and that little bird had no qualms about diving right into it. He sat there, looked me stright in the eye, and dared me to run over him, knowing full well that I could never bring myself to try; after a few minutes of this staredown, I opened the driver's side window and waved in an attempt to shoo him and his meal out of the way. It did work, but the hawk left his pigeon in the road. During the wait, the light had turned red, so I got to sit there for a bit and feel horrible as the pigeon lay there and gasped for air -- the hawk had been waiting for his dinner to die enough to make carrying it off possible, only I had fucked things up. When the light turned again, I drove around the dying-dead bird, hoping that the hawk would come back for it before some other driver crushed it flat. On the way home, I completely forgot to check and see if it did. And then I ate a cookie. It was delicious. Current Mood: stupid pigeons | | Monday, February 20th, 2006 | | 1:32 am |

The exciting world of plants
So, while out at the local hardware/home improvement box-monster for lumber, I make the mistake of skimming the plant section. That store must have had some connections, because I have never seen stuff like they had in a big-box garden section before. In the end, I caved and walked away with three new plants: ( I HEART FREAKSHOW PLANTS ) | | Monday, February 6th, 2006 | | 2:12 am |
