Dead 60's singers and kitten names...
Looks like Mama Cass finally got her man.
Denny's dead. That sucks. Twice, even, because the one member of the Mama's and Papa's that I detest is the only one left.*heaves disgusted sigh* Whatever. Now, on to the kitten.... Jr. brought this kitten in months ago.
It's black and white, with long hair and... a total goofball.
I love this damned cat.
*rolls eyes* Anyhoo... "we" thought it was a girl and so, named her Dixie. Yesterday, "Dixie" was using my lap for a jungle gym while I was in the library, necessitating me to catch "her" once when she nearly fell and thus woulda stopped her fall herself by shoving those grappling hooks she calls "nails" into my bare thigh. Not having that.
Again.
(My goddamned legs already look like they're owned by the world's most uncoordinated six year old, for the scrapes and shit on 'em...) Anyway, cat slips, I grab... HIM. Oops.
What was that I felt BY ACCIDENT with my finger?
Was that... little tiny furry BALLS? Judging by the "goosed!" expression on the cat's face, I'd say it was. So, I checked again. Mind you, this is a LONG-HAIRED cat, so, I turned him around, blew on his ramparts to part his hair and sure 'nuff... little tiny furry balls. So, now I have a boy cat who wants to know what he ever did to me that I named him "Dixie" and a "wft?" expression on his face. (He'd probably also like my fascination with, and the blowing on of, his ass explained, but... I had to think of a new, MALE name...) I've been reading a lot of Lewis Grizzard lately.
I miss Rob even more than I miss Lewis, too. Lewis or Rob?
Hmmmm.... Well, other Suth'n boys have two first names... How about Lew Rob? Lewrob, Le-e-ewrob, Lewrob.
Lewrob, Lewrob-LI, I sang as that Irish song entered my brain. Then, my brain spits out, "RobaLew!" a la Ricky Ricardo. So, now I can't decide. Whiiiiich one? Irish or Cuban? Y'all decide.
Can ya tell I'm running outta cat names?
And, yeah, I did finally get everybody named around here. The big, fat, pure black cat whose brother is called "Slitherin'" cause that's what he does in yer lap is now Barry.As in "White", another large black guy I loved. The anti-social kitten who now won't leave a person alone long enough to even pee is Dusty. The slightly older kitten who insists on trying to bat the guy's pee streams (don't ask) is now Smokey. The little red guy is named Denny. I tried calling him Stu, as in "REDman" (from The Stand and 'cause Gary Sinise is gorgeous), but... he just looks like a Denny. So, I settle on Denny, call him that for a coupla weeks, then Dougherty dies.
Goooood karma, huh?
Poor cat. Anyway, I think that's everybody and now everybody has a name. Except the cat formerly known as Dixie... yet.

How 'bout "Bliss"? take the "B" from Robs name and the "L" and "is" from Lewis, toss in the extra "s"...Bliss? If you stretch it a bit (O.K., a lot) it almost sounds a little like Dixie, so maybe the little guy won't be so confused over his new name. ;>)
