Great pics, HMF! Thanks for sharing. For some reason, I just love the photo of Petite Pluto gazing out the plane window!
On a sad note, my sweet kitty Emma finally succumbed to a long illness yesterday. She had hung in there with great spirits and tremendous strength but it was finally not fair to her to ask her to be here anymore. A friend and fellow vet helped me to send Emma on her way and it was totally gentle and peaceful. I'm just so sad that she's not here today.
On a rockin' note, my best friend got me a fantastically fun gig volunteering at the opening night of the Seattle Film Festival. A small group of us were each designated as a guide for one of the stars of the opening film "Battle in Seattle". Charlize Theron and her husband Stuart Townsend (he directed the film), Michelle Rodriguez from Lost (Cathie I SO wished you were here!), Andre Benjamin from OutKast and Martin Henderson were all here. Martin Henderson was my assignment. I got to pick him up at his hotel with a car and driver and escort him to the opening, walk the red carpet, hang out with the whole group at the parties before and after the film and attend the press conference after the screening. They were all fantastically nice and fun. Our extra special bonus celebrity was Eddie Vedder, who did some of the music for the film. It was definitely an evening to remember. The film is fantastic, based on the events around the protests over the WTO meeting here in Seattle in 1999, and of course it was special to see it here where the events took place.
Timothy and Cat - Congratulations on another resounding Cat-o-tar success!

I'm a newbie to your thread. I just wanted to say hi
Glad to see some others from WA state, too.
**Justin, Congrats on being the CMO!**
I'm sorry to hear about your kitty, Circusgirl.![]()
SWEET! Now that's a good friend!! 'Sounds like a terrific time! (And, Martin Henderson? 'Not a bad assignment! Was that planned?)
Oh Cat...![]()
I'd LOVE a Cat-O-tar, if you would do me the honor of creating one of your fabulous drawings. If I'm not mistaken, you have one in the works right now, so just whenever you can (IF you can)....let me know![]()

No problem - I like doing them! These instructions are good for anyone who'd like one:
Just email me a picture where I can see your face, or point me to a URL with a good shot. Also let me know what color/colors you'd like to see as your background. (cathie@cathie1.com)
Keep in mind that if you don't like my first try, you have to let me know! These are just for fun, and it won't hurt my feelings if you want some changes...
P.S. to KigerKat - just point me to one of your wedding pictures...just so I can see your features...and I'll get started!
Ok everyone.... the moment has arrived! The introduction of the mystery special guest who joined me and the group in our adventures around Epcot! Its Petite Pluto! Althought we all started calling him "Pint Size Pluto" because we couldn't rememeber exactly what it said on the card when he arrived. So anyway.....
Here is Pluto happy to be let out of the humid mailbox....

So there you have it folks..... my week summed up in a few pics.....
Poor (neglected) Skinny Minnie!!(I mean, what's a girl 'gotta do?!
)
They must have changed it then.... it first started off with smaller aquariums of other nasty guys... eels, barracudas, etc.... then you went down a small hall and on a moving sidewalk that took you through the middle of the shark tank.Hey HMF, welcome back! I'm sooo glad you got to go! Great pic of you guys at Sea World--it looks so pretty there! I haven't been since I was little. We always remembered going into a show about sharks and then the screen lifted and we were in the shark tank...or maybe that was when we walked through? Is it still like that, if that made any sense?
Hi Everyone! Boy is it good to see ya'll again....I've missed you Missy. And MadBrad and Wotruba on the Trippin' thread. We haven't had many green lights lately, if you know what I mean.![]()
Hope everyone is doing well!![]()
