Oooh, I like this. Plus, I needed to start another show because I'm only in the middle of a few hundred of them.

First day at my new job today. Of course, I'm up and ready to go with about 45 to spare.
At least it beats 45 minutes late....
How'd the first day go?
All in all, really good, considering it was mostly first day stuff. Real work starts tomorrow.
Woke up this morning to discover we have an infestation... of cats. At least 9 kittens were on our deck. We have no idea where they came from, and though they scattered upon seeing us, they slowly came back. I... am not sure what to do.
My daughter is delighted.
We are not cat people.
Contact an animal shelter, quickly, before anyone becomes too attached.
The lady across the street has a lot of cats, I think. I might go knock on her door first, to determine if that's the source? I've met her exactly one time, so... "hey, are these your cats?" is kind of an awkward second time, but I'll do what I gotta.
"If they're not... do you want them to be?"
Give them to the Wreisners. One of those twisted people actually like cats.
I did not see the band "Hairball" on Saturday night. Rain was threatening (they started fireworks 15 minutes early), and the whole day just turned out differently than originally planned, so it really wasn't in the cards.
I am not disappointed.
Seeing a reference to "Hairball" in the LTE following the discussion about kittens struck me as amusing.
Standings update!

Ben Mendelsohn is terrific in that, Spooky. The series also captures that unique vibe that exists only in the Florida Keys.
I'm a fan of Mendelsohn's work in general - have Slow West queued up for this evening.
Yeah, what bootsy said.
Also, don't start the third to last episode until you have time to dive head first into the breach.
Ooh, that's the one with Coach Taylor in it. I've been meaning to watch that just for him.
Went to Ant-Man yesterday with the Mrs. Loads of fun.
I suppose we could talk movies since we haven't in July...
Maybe someone could post something tomorrow.
I can do it if Spooky's otherwise occupied.
We went to see Mr. Holmes.... Much more depressing than I needed.
That's unfortunate? I hadn't heard it was depressing, but anything's going to be more thoughtful than the Downey, Jr. versions.
Re: Mr. Holmes - does it stay true to the canon?
Did anyone see on the Twitters that Smokestack is apparently a birther?
Yesterday, Gleeman had a screen grab. It was....something.

Holy cow! Tulo and LaTroy to the Jays for Reyes and minor leaguers.
Listening to Ben Bernanke talking about sabermetrics right now. Interesting.
