missroseroseMade breakfast. Dyed hair. Petted cats. Wrapped ribbon. Bought groceries. Cleaned house. Vacuumed floors. Cleaned kitchen. Doing laundry.
Saw Beauty and the Beast in 3D, which was beautifully converted and entirely spectacular. It always was my favorite from the Second Golden Age of Disney, and I'm glad to say the presentation felt like an extension of the original rather than a desecration of it. Not that I expected any less; Disney knows where their bread is buttered when it comes to their classics.
As a side note, it was a bit of a trip realizing that I was the same age as my friend's daughter the first time I saw that film. Time marches on.
Found supplies for a nifty sewing project at Wal-Mart, of all places. Which makes me very pleased; I've been wanting something to work on with the nifty new Singer I got for Christmas, but had been stymied by the lack of craft stores in the area. Now to see if I can figure out where I put the iron. And to trawl thrift shops for an ironing board.
Also, for those of you who aren't on Facebook and haven't been hearing about the adventures of the theoretical new kitten - we have a new (non-theoretical) kitten. He's still very much in the adjustment period, so we're waiting to see if he'll be a permanent addition or a temporary one a la Fiona. But we're hopeful. He's younger, and a lot more laid-back. Also, he has three legs.
Pictures of both the new hair and the new kitten scheduled for tomorrow. Stay tuned.

...yeah, time for me to go to bed.
