December 2012 mom visit

my mom is visiting and we are having fun!
thanks to mister Smorg's recommendation
we went on Saturday to the Handel's Messiah
sing-a-long with the San Diego Master Chorale

it was lovely! (mainly 'cause I didn't sing)

and yesterday we went on a 3 hour walk
to Balboa Park, around and back

it's good to have a fun healthy mom
to walk with!

Halloween

another American Halloween!
I like this dark holiday
I celebrate with my cats, and at work
and even better, this year, I watched
the original Halloween film
from 1978
spooky low budget film!
some pictures to share

Franken-Herr-Gato, grrrrr

Frau Kitty and the Little Witch:
"Please be my black cat tonight!",
"But I am a tuxedo cat, not a black cat!",
"It's OK, a half-black cat will do..."

from a sunny Sunday walk

Jiro dreams of sushi

very lovely film, not to be missed!
and this documentary is not only about
the seemly delicious sushi that Jiro cooks,
but about his attitude toward work and life,
that makes this documentary and splendid piece
