Caturday: Cat-pile edition.

I love kitties. This is a well known fact. It should therefore come as no surprise that I especially love PILES of kitties. Let the cat-pile photos COMMENCE!!

How did this even happen?? LOL.

Sink pile! Awwww, I love brown tabbies. *3*

Neko nabe, aka cat pot!
Look how lined up their heads are! Another case of "how did this happen?!"

HOLY CRAP SO MANY KITTENS!
I like that loner one that climbed onto the carrier. :)

Eleven kittens! That's so many kittens.
That little rascal in the front is awake during naptime, aww.

Cat-amari, get it?! Lolol.

And now, since two cats does not really equal a pile (a pile of two cats....it's like a pile of one faces. Just...don't ask.), here are some photos of donut kitties, aka one kitty wrapped around another kitty. :3

Awww they fit perfectly in that cat bed!

I LOVE CAT DONUTS.

The kitty in the front is a Bengal! They're so awesome~
And that nice fluffy kitty in the back is giving it ear licks, cuuute!

While these photos are just random ones I had saved on my computer, if you'd like to see many, many more cat-piles and donut-kitties (aka actually primarily kitten-piles and donut-kittens) take a look - or a LONNNNNNNNNG STAAAAAAAARE - at The Itty Bitty Kitty Committee, aka LIKE MY MOST FAVORITEST BLOG OF ALL TIME. Soooooo manyyyyy kittenssssssss. :D

Forty cakes

That's as many as four tens!

And that's terrible.

There's a hurricane coming through!

This is (obviously) a photo of Hurricane Irene, taken by an astronaut from the International Space Station. Badass.

This chart was printed out and taped to the door of the grad student office where my desk is located. Needless to say, I was very pleased by this new decorative addition to our office. It basically summarizes my life.

(In order to see the full size image - which I highly recommend so that you can see all the pictures better - please click here!! Clicking the image itself will only enlarge it to about 3/4 full size, which is an insufficient degree of enlargement. That's what she said.)

I think my favorite is PI as seen by postdoc! Or PhD student as seen by postdoc, lol. OR POSTDOC AS SEEN BY POSTDOC LOL AWW THAT POOR DONKEY.

Pink houses pink houses piiiiiiink houses yes yessss

Delivering on the promise contained at the end of my last awesome houses post from exactly a month ago, here is a post full of AWESOME PINK HOUSES. Obviously, I want to live in ALL OF THEM.

First off, here are some Victorian-style houses in nice pastel shades of pink with white trim. Pretty tasteful, no?

Now for some pink houses with heart motifs going on! Somewhat less tasteful, lol.

Here's a weird hobbit-y pink house! It's pretty cool.

And lastly, here is a house that is not pink, but is still adorable.

Weren't all those houses super cute? Aren't you totally judging me now for wanting to live in them?? Yes and yes.

What day is it?? It's CATURDAY!!!

HELLLLLS RIIIIIIIGHT. In honor of this, this most glorious of Caturdays, I bring you: CAT GIFS. Awwwwww jyeahhhhhhhhh.

Let's start off with some very familiar YouTube cats. If you haven't seen these before then WE ARE NOT FRIENDS.

Infamous teddy-bear-hugging-cat. Awww!

Here is another clip for which I know the Youtube video source. It's a super cool video - they recorded the cat doing the double-jump shown in the gif, and they slowwwww it down realllllll slowwwww. (Credit to Porter Porter Andrew Porter for showing me this video! :D )

Damn, so badass! I wish I could do that.

Probably the most amazing collection.

I am pretty sure that Christian Dior's Spring 2007 couture collection is the most incredible and memorable one I have ever seen. Especially as a whole; there are plenty of collections where I really love some - or quite a few - of the looks, but I rarely like an entire collection. But I liked this entire collection. Some looks are really weird, and not even very pretty, but ALL of them are so creative and intricate that I can't help but like them anyway. Also, it doesn't hurt that they are Japan/Asian-inspired. -3-

Here are some of my favorite looks from the collection. (As you can probably tell, I tended to like the white/cream looks the best, lol.)

Man, John Galliano is a freaking fashion genius. (But also apparently, and unfortunately, a bigot. Sad times.)
