My poor, poor pusscat. He was in a fight with another evil neighbourhood kitty and now has an infected wound as a result of his labours. So today poor puss had to get packed off in a cat carrier with no breakfast and is at the vet’s to have an operation to have his abscess removed…!!! Ugh, that evil cat that gave him a wound - apparently canines (as in the teeth, not dogs!) are very dirty and that was what put a hole in my poor kitten. I’m peeved to say the least.
I went out yesterday to a fabled dumpling house in Melbourne town with one of my oldest mates and we stuffed ourselves stupid. Had fried pork dumplings, mushroom and vegetable dumplings, spring onion pancake, and finally steamed miniature pork buns. Afterwards we took a trip to a local music shop and bought soooo much stuff (as a result of it being about 25 bucks for the two of us to have lunch, we felt we had money to burn, hehe).
I bought Blur’s Leisure, Gang of Four’s Entertainment, The Knife’s Silent Shout, the Tiga DJ Kicks compilation, and The Good The Bad and The Queen’s self-titled album. I almost bought Joy Division’s Permanent 1995 but put it back seeing as I have Substance. ‘Twas a hard decision though!
That’s not all. During the week at work I ended up buying The Postal Service’s Give Up and Radiohead’s Hail To The Thief (can you believe I haven’t had a copy since now?! Insanity!) and mclusky’s mclusky Do Dallas.
I also had a bout of depression haulage…ordered some lovely fragrances from the fabled Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab - descriptions are as follows - The Candy Butcher: dark chocolate with a heavy cream undertone; The Parliament of Monsters: dust, incense, wet tobacco, and a curl of opium smoke; Eat Me: three white cakes, vanilla, and red and black currants; Bordello: bawdy plum with amaretto, burgundy wine and black currant.

Sorry I didn’t see this at the time!How’s kitty going, love? I remember when Misha had an abscess, it freaked me out!
Whoa, so much music going on! I need me some new music…I keep listening to The Shins, Supergrass and The Stone Roses…some of my absolute favourite bands, but I need a change! I bought my cousin’s album the other night…hopefully I’ll get it on Wednesday.
Mmmm, lots of BPAL yummehness….Candy Butcher was odd on me at first, but I think it’s aged nicely as last time I tried my decant it was quite nice. And I love Eat Me!!!

Kitty is improving, he doesn’t have the drain in his chest anymore so it doesn’t look quite so scary but he looks a little sorry not having fur on most of his chest.
Oh my, The Candy Butcher is just heavenly on me and I love Eat Me! Actually I love them all that’s why I got bottles of them. A male friend commented that he wouldn’t mind a flagon (!) of The Parliament of Monsters. It might be nice on a guy. I need to do another blog post because would you believe I bought yet more music! Ay, can’t be stopped.
