I think ginger-haired Cumberbatch needs to wear lipstick or something. His whole face seems to blend together for me that way.

Do people who eat a lot of salads shop twice a week? I am having trouble getting enough lettuce to stay good to go only on Saturdays.

I like the cherry veneer coffee table! Ours is solid cherry and amazing handiwork. Amish made custom. I'm sure it cost a fortune however umpteen years ago, but it was my parents dosh, and they gave them to us when they moved to Hawaii and didn't want to haul furniture. They are sadly abused by us because we are why we can't have nice things. But even so, they're still gorgeous.

I like Cumberbatch with the dark ginger hair I've seen on him a time or two. The strawberry blond hair he sometimes has is less appealing to me. But, yeah, the Sherlock locks? Verrrrrrry nice!

I totally prefer darker-hair Cumbermuffin. It makes him so much more striking and strange.

I can see him as a ginger, he has that particular super-pale porcelain complexion that goes with it.

Now of course, I'm thinking it would be hilarious if they did a Sherlock ep based on "The Red Headed League" and had BC go to his natural color. The meta of the other characters saying what a rubbish dye job Sherlock had would be delicious.

I also think Cumberbatch is better-looking the darker his hair is. But I wouldn't turn him down anyway.

My personal theory is that Sherlock is in fact ginger, which is why he never seems to have a beard, and dyes it to make people take him seriously. With skin that fair, if his hair were naturally that dark, he'd have a five-o'clock shadow by 2pm.

Jesse- I like to order from Overstock--almost-free shipping and I have liked what I have gotten form them. We have these: [link] And we LOVE them.

oh, man, Swifty had a mini-seizure this afternoon (after our vet office closed, of course). We gave him the valium the vet gave us after his last seizure a couple of weeks ago. And he stopped twitching and got really sleepy. He slept for about an hour then just got up. He's been walking around but his back legs seem really wea. He drank some and ate a bunch of food and his eyes seem bright. He just laid down in the kitchen and looks like a normal sleeping cat.

I'm just not sure if the leg weakness is just effect of the valium wearing off and we should just wait it out. Or if we should take him to the emergency vet.

Emergency vet is so stressful and really he's acting pretty much like he did after we brought him home after the last seizures.

Cats! Sheesh.

Yikes! Poor Swifty. Poor you!

Scrappy, thanks. I looked at the O and didn't see anything I was crazy about.
