Friday Petblogging

Slurm
Last time I posted a picture of Slurm, it was still sleepy from a months-long nap in the fridge. Here you can see it’s much more lively. Even, dare I say it, frisky.

Spread the Serenity Love

Via SAP and Shakespeare’s Sister, respectively, comes news of two Serenity-related events.

First, June 23 is Serenity Day–a day on which fans all over plan to buy Serenity to demonstrate to Universal the purchasing power of the Browncoats (the goal, of course, is to get them to greenlight a sequel). Own it already? No problem; donate it to charity, send it to the troops, use it to convert a friend, or whatever.

Meanwhile, there’s going to be a whole bunch of benefit screenings of Serenity, with the proceeds going to Equality Now (Joss Whedon’s favorite charity). It’s a lot of fun in a very good cause.

Not I, certainly. One more from the DeYoung: an ancestor skull from New Guinea. Pleasant dreams!

Deborah, I Swear I Didn’t Break It

Happily, Property of a Lady is back from its little vacation in the land we call Broken. And it wasn’t my fault.
