"We found Calleigh in Reinette's stomach." "Where'd we find Reinette?" "Outside." | | |

"I pooped out my two apples, and I pooped out my candy..." --David, on why he should get dinner and more candy now. (Followed by the Pinky and the Brain theme song.) | | |

"You are a freak, Batman." --David, apparently channeling Ray Kowalski

We're absolutely heartbroken to see ember_reads deletion :( Hope you're okay, sweetie. | | |

Hello everyone, For those of you who don't have Steff on your f-lists, here's the current cat situation at our house if you'd like to check out what we're trying to do. | | |

Steff fixed my laptop screen ♥ ♥ | | |

Well, unless there is a delayed surprise, we have six kittens. ::grins:: I got to sever umbilical cords, got to watch little heads and feet come out, got to clear membranes from babies and got to clear airways for breathing and hear the first little cries of every one. I'm seriously happy right now. Obviously :D So! Pictures. I took a ton as she went, so here's some in order from the very first kitten. ( Huge kitty imagesCollapse )She's slept a while and is awake again, licking her babies. She's perfect. | | |

At about 10:15, Reinette, (my cat for those of you not on Steff's flist), just had her first kitten. Zie looks black or dark grey, is breathing, is mewing. Momma's water broke with a couple of little cries, and about two minutes later there was a leg sticking out.
More to come <3
ETA 10:53: kitten number 2, strawberry blonde, maybe ginger?
ETA 11:18: number 3, black one with a big ol' voice
ETA 11:44: number 4, another ginger, this one more chill at first but finding hir voice nicely now. At least one more to come from what we can feel.
ETA 12:33: 5, and she's a calico! Steff thinks there's another to come.
ETA 12:48: 6, another ginger! Dunno if any more. (Edit: There's almost definitely another in there. Steff says the vet is a hack. Definitely... not just four.)
1:21: It looks like she might be done; she's sleeping, so we may just have six. <3 | | |

Title: Mary Fandom: Due South; Arch to the SkyCharacters: Myra Turnbull, Renfield Turnbull, Mr. Turnbull, Margaret Thatcher For: podfic_loverTimeline: Circa 1981, and then canon 1996ish Rating: G Words: 2966 Notes: podfic_lover generously gave to help us with the costs in getting our cat, Mike, checked out; she asked for Turnbull having or wanting a pet of his own. So I did both. (Kind hat-tip to Terry Pratchett may be found within. Points if you find it.) Myra had begun spending more time in her own flat, and she was abruptly starting to suspect this was having some adverse affect on her brother. ( This, this, this is like being nibbled to death by... what are those Earth creatures called? Feathers, long bill, webbed feet, go 'quack'...? ... Cats! I'm being nibbled to death by cats.Collapse ) | | |

me: OMFG. I just went upstairs to take off my shirt and chuck it in the laundry. I'm standing over the laundry, looking into the dark bedroom, when I fucking realize my foot is against a BODY. I jump out of my goddamn SKIN, and fling aside a shirt to see NATALIE HAVING BURIED HERSELF IN THE LAUNDRY AND FALLEN TO SLEEP Aaaaaaaah OH MY GOD those few milliseconds were the creepiest of my LIFE ::breathebreathebreathe:: Okay. Reading and writing. Okay. SteffWatson: LMAO!!! me: ::BREEEEEEEEATHE:: SteffWatson: You should post that on LJ. It's brilliant. me: LOL I WILL | | |

In the car today, Natalie wanted to know why we couldn't name a new cat Ray since our Ray died Friday morning. Steff: "No, Natalie. There's only one Ray." Natalie: "That's not true, there's a bunch of Rays in Due South!" So... thanks, Paul Gross et al. ::laughs:: Steff-lady put up a post taking commissions so we can try to offset the financial hit of Ray's death and the checkup we had to give Mike, her brother, to make sure he wasn't going to die too. If you feel like helping and maybe getting some art or some fic, please go see <3  By my sister, Jenny. | | |

Title: Serpensortia Co-Author: sl_walkerFandom: Due South; Wizard!VerseRating: PG Characters: Renfield Turnbull/Ray Vecchio Summary: "I have been sent by Reinette Favager, sire of Guy Laurent, on his behalf," I say, falling back upon the formality of my kind. Even if I don't really think wizards quite worth the effort, I respect my sire. "He and Chase are currently underground in Canada, preparing to help refugees to cross the border."( Chapter 2Collapse ) | | |

Title: Sonorus Co-Author:: sl_walkerFandom: Due South; Wizard!VerseRating: PG Characters: Renfield Turnbull, Guy Laurent, Mike Chase, Myra Turnbull Words: 4085 Summary: Turnbull gets unexpected backup on a particularly explosive call. I apparate into the quiet street. Snow falls around me. What light there is is soft, warm, faint. This is the Wizarding village of Upper Wingate, tiny and hidden by Tobin Lake. It is early in the morning. Most residents are long since asleep. My wand-tip adds to the faint light of the street; it would be unwise, perhaps, but stealth is not part of tonight's call.
