Television and rodents.

[tortoisegirl]

Hey! LJ is offering this free holiday cookie v-gift, so does anyone want a v-gift? I can send five free ones. Digital cookies for your profile!

I finally got to watch the finale of The Walking Dead yesterday (I missed the airing on Sunday) and I have all sorts of thoughts that I want to type out. I should be focusing on my finals at the moment so I'll hold off that until next week, but the longer I wait the more long-winded and rambling I'm likely to get. It's nice to be watching an actual scripted TV show again. It's the first non-cartoon, non-reality TV show I've gotten into since Lost, and as frustrating as cliffhangers and long waits between seasons can be (arrrgh no season 2 until next Halloween) it's fun getting pulled into a large, drawn-out story & world like this.

In a complete non sequitur, there is a mouse living in my kitchen, and my cat is being COMPLETELY USELESS. He sits and stares at the gap under the stove and...gets bored and wanders off. No matter how much I point at the kitchen and yell "Get it! Goooo!" \If he actually saw the mouse scurrying around I think he'd either RUN AWAY, or keep staring. That mouse has gotta be laughing at us at this point.

I got one from an anonymous person and it made me feel good inside, so sure, I would like one :)

Sure thing!

Is it the star cookie with the colored sprinkles? I'd love to get one! :)

Sadly, I don't have any free vgifts to give away. :(

No, it's an animated one with cookies on a plate. The latest news post says everyone can send this one free one because there was some contest involved with it, so in theory you should be able to send it free even w/o a paid account. (Unless you mean you already sent your 5 free ones, in which case disregard this XD)

Of course you get one :)

YAY!!! Thank you! :)

I sent you free cookies too, but you don't have your virtual gifts turned on, on your info page.

Eeee, thank you! <3

When you were here, the cats were staring under the stove, weren't they? It was right around that time, anyhow. This went on for two weeks, but they finally got their prey! CONSTANT VIGILANCE!!

But oh yeah, your mouse is totally laughing. He'll get his comeuppance!

Yup, I saw their early mouse huntings. Maybe my cat will surprise me someday, prove that he's still got that feline prowess. Can't let that mouse make a mockery of him for too long.

yay cookies! I'll take one if you have any left =p

haha your cat is hilarious. I've actually been thinking about getting a cat sometime in the future when we get an apt in order to help prevent and catch mice (well, except for the fact that shawn hates cats). If I ever do that I hope my cat does something! lol

[tortoisegirl.livejournal.com]

Sure thing!

Oooh, you should get a cat! (Shawn can learn to like them, haha). I definitely think they help scare away mice and keep them from settling in in the first place, so certainly useful! And cute, of course. :)
