A cat in a sweater and a cat on a hot tin roof

That is Stevens (once known as Gimli)wearing a sweater. Now, i know what you're thinking, I also think it's gross to put clothes on animals. BUT...I knit that sweater for stevens. It is the first knitting project I have ever successfully completed. Despite the fact that Stevens was ....shall we say, less than impressed with having to wear the sweater, i think it was great. I am quite proud and now hyper aware of the fact that i will be that aunt who makes ugly sweaters and then shows up and asks you why you're not wearing it and makes you put it on. that's right. and i'm not ashamed. If i spend the time knitting it with love (and/or malice) then you should damn well wear it! I don't care if it is tiny on your chubby, furry body or if you hate the colours! or maybe my knitting skills will progress and i'll become a skilled knittress (word?) .....

And tonight I watched Cat on a hot tin roof. I'd forgotten how much I love that movie. I would like to see the play. I would like to star in the remake of the movie as Maggie the Cat. and while a remake is NEVER more thana poor man's original.... a remake of this movie, now that censorship is a smidge less strict than in '58 , could put back the original language and homosexual references, which would actually bring TW's intended struggle back into the love triangle that is the catalyst for Maggie and Brick's estrangement. how much would i love to play Maggie?!?!? so much i can't even put it into words. and i put everything into words. into long, descriptive paragraphs full of adjectives and synonyms.......that's what i do!
