Calendar, Cat and a Pink October
Happy birthday to Smilla, movie star diva cat #1! She is 3 years old today (!) and she told me that she sends her love to everyone who watched her movie debut and commented so kindly. Fun fun fun!
Inspired by Tracy’s calendar pages I drew September in my journal last month and all the little squares are now filled with doodles and words. I’ve never liked the calendars you buy because they are so gray and boring or too big or too heavy or… something else. Instead I want to print my own when I need them, though right now this simple overview is all I need.
My drawn calendar shows just enough of the future for me to handle. I made October while watching Jacky Chan movies this weekend!

- Buy a friend a book week starts today, October 1st. But I really think it’s a bit too commercial. Buy new, buy buy – bye! I’m having a Give a friend a book week instead. Look through your shelves and give away a book for no good reason at all! [found via lifehack.org]

Happy birthday to Smilla, it’s great that you can go for a walk with her like that, my cat just goes down the balcony and into the bushes, whoops, she disappeared!… She would go mad if i tried to put a leash on her.
Yeah, and Jackie Chan’s films rock! ^^
