I've been so neglectful

I guess a few things have happened since I last wrote.

1. I bought the Pure Beech sheets that Laura recommended in a previous blog. NICE. We're loving them. Along the modal fabric theme, I also bought some modal/cotton blend towels (best I've ever used), and a few modal/cotton shirts from Gap and Old Navy. Love it all.

2. We've seen a couple more movies. Miami Vice was good but a bit slow in a few places. Overall, I'd recommend it. The Da Vinci Code I really liked. I read the book awhile back, and I wasn't disappointed by the movie. (Plus for $3 at the cheap theater where you can eat pizza and drink beer, how can you complain.)

3. We visited a couple of cat breeders today. First we met a guy who raises all sorts of exotic cats--Bengals, Savannahs, Caracals, Bobcats, Lynx. He also had a couple monkeys and lemurs. Craziness. All of his cats were really pretty, and it was the first time we'd seen Savannahs and their Serval relatives. Absolutely gorgeous cats. We walked away without a kitten though. Then we met a lady who breeds Abyssinians. We didn't walk away from there empty-handed. Yes, we got another cat. He's 12 weeks old and breaks the female streak in the house, so Marc's not the only guy anymore. We're keeping our yet unnamed baby away from Manga and Miji for awhile. If you know anything about what we've gone through with Manga freaking out at other cats, you understand why. If you don't know about Manga's fits, you don't want to. She can get ugly, and the wild cat in her really comes out. Anyway, we're really excited about our new cat. We're trying to decide on a good name that starts with "M" for him--to keep the naming streak alive. So far on the list we're considering Maxim or Maximus, Marmot, Marcello, Mugato, Mojito... If you have any good ideas, let us know.
