Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Some things I learned after a recent viewing of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990):
Donatello was voiced by Corey Feldman.
I still don't understand how four turtles who grew up in New York have such a strong Californian dialect.
I enjoyed the banter between Michelangelo and Donatello.
The turtle costumes are passable until the turtles open their mouth.
A bit darker than I remember for a kids movie, 3 deaths and a little light swearing. Raphael is still my favourite. He's so moody.
I've now seen a movie where Elias Koteas had a full head of hair

Um does the date count as a title?
I have been woefully without much to say on ye olde blog. We have decided to adopt Herbie, so are now just looking for the right home for Mylo which I am pretty certain I am going to be devo about when it happens.
So we are now a 2 dog family which is just weird as we usually just have the one dog (and a few cats). We are looking into pet insurance which a few years ago would seem pretty weird but after all the allergies trouble we've had with our original fur baby Ebony, it just makes sense. And with Labradors being prone to things like hip dysplacia I think it's a good gamble. I wish my own health insurance was as cheap.
We are moving office as well, and now my work will be even further from home. You can imagine how exciting this is. And I end up getting resentful and petty about my boss stealing all the boxes I made up to store his own crap. Gah. So in conclusion no real reason why I haven't been posting, just that nothing much interesting has been happening.
Ah to end on a high note, I don't know how many of you not in Australia have heard of comedian Chris Lilley but I was very excited to hear this morning that his new show Angry Boys is premiering next week. You should YouTube Summer Heights High or We can be Heroes: finding the Australian of the Year if you've never seen his stuff.

And yes we still have the kittens, Luna and Norbit. Though not so much kittens anymore, Norbit is a real tubber, they're going on about 9 months old and I've had them nearly 6 months (!). Boyfriend believes the cut off to be 6 months as I'm getting (hell already) attached and we need to move them to a new carer but I really like to see the adoption through. It's happened before, not every animal is an easy one, but they find homes eventually (hope I haven't jinxed myself).
