OK, I found this truly hilarious list of really odd book titles and had to share, because they really are that funny. Some of them are less so when you know the context; for instance, 'Bomb-Proof Your Horse' is a book I've looked at and a term in very common usage if you're a horse person. (Bomb-Proof, of course, refers to an animal less likely to spook at things and is therefore safer to ride). I can understand how it would be pretty funny to someone who wasn't horsey, though.

Still, I don't know if I want "Butterworths Corporate Manslaughter Service" or "Reusing Old Graves" explained, although I am seriously curious about "Oral Sadism and the Vegetarian Personality."

And will someone please get me "The Big Book of Lesbian Horse Stories" (Kensington Publishing, 2003) for Yule or whatever this year? I think that it's a title that I really should own.

Autumn's come. I may or may not finish writing the series of little word strings I've been messing with on this subject, but it has, and I'm happy. There's a certain quiet contemplation, a subdued sorrow with threads of joy, that comes of watching the world around me die back and come alive, awaiting moisture in the growing cold.

Fenris' absence remains painful, shocking me from time to time, and there are moments when I feel it keenly. I'm adjusting to the loss, but it will be awhile before this few dogs (only three, hah) feels normal.

The kitten is adorable, and growing swiftly, which they do. Tiger continues to parent her lovingly, which I still find completely amazing and one of the cutest things ever. Of course I can't have a kitten without photographing the process, and denying those photos would really be holding out unfairly, so here you are.
