The Happening


I just typed that post title in because I couldn't think of anything else to call it. That is, however, the name of M. Night Shymalahamaoughimoreileyanomahans's (sp) new film. I really don't know much about it, other than the title is kind of lame. It does appear to involve some kind of apocalyptic adventure, which I'm always up for, and it opens on my birthday.

I took the kitties to Weathered Rock Veterinary Clinic this morning to get them laser de-clawed. (Thanks, Mike, for letting me know where to get the procedure done locally.) I would've told Dr. Popp you sent me, but Thursdays are his day off apparently, so the other Doc will be performing the surgery. I just hope they don't laser off a foot or something. It ended up costing 140 per feline, but I think it's worth it to put them through less pain and less recovery time.

I got a new toy (fingerprint magnet) today. The Logitech Harmony One remote. It's their latest all-in-one universal remote. I was going to hold out until they released something with Bluetooth so I could control the PS3, but I found a work-around. I also ordered a cheap PS3 remote from amazon which comes with an IR dongle. All you have to do is plug in the IR dongle to your PS3, tell the Harmony One to assimilate the cheap PS3 remote's functions, and you're controlling the PS3 with the uber-remote. The only drawback is no power on and no eject for PS3, but you have to power it on to put a disc in anyway, so it's not a huge deal.
