Vesper tagged me and so I'll cooperate, but in order not to perpetuate this any further than it already has to be, I'm not tagging you! But feel free to just do it if you want to. No strings attached.

I love the kitty's. My three love to use me as a pillow at night...
Have A nice evening.

Catv, nice meme. I have been everywhere you have listed, though I skimmed Europe through the Mediterranean. Stopped in Greece and Italy, on the Isle of Capri watching on Italian tv when they walked on the moon in 1969.

(Sorry, I got carried away!)
I've never written a novel, but it seems to me that if I did, after all the sweat equity put into it, it'd be the last thing I'd want to read.
Loved this one Cat.It reminded me of how much I loved a visit to Ireland 10 years ago and how much I loved reading Anais Nin for the first time,
Linda
The many 4's are interesting compilation.Good Idea!
Your cats are gorgeous Cat, they look so comfy in the photo. (I presume they're yours).
Great list: I love grilled salmon too (had it yesterday) :)
But keep maple syrup away from me :P
Good luck with your novel. I'm sure you'll write it.
Jesus Christ Superstar is great! We actually saw a live production with the guys who played Jesus and Judas in the movie.
Your cats are beautiful and adorable!
Absolutely love your cat photos! (okay, so I'm biased). I have lots of reading to catch up on your blog, and am very much looking forward to it. It reminds me of visiting the house down the street where the most interesting lady in town lived.
Hi Tony!
Christopher, Ah Greece...still have yet to get there. What a great place to see the moonwalk!
Marion! Great that you did the meme here! You know I have never heard of Mark Twain's Joan of Arc, but now I am highly intrigued. She's one of my archetypes as an INFP herself. Every once in a while, I have to channel her. You'll see what I mean soon enough because I'm about to blog it. Thanks for doing the meme!
JR, LOL! You got yourself a point there JR! Ok, scratch that off the list and put Mark Twain's Joan of Arc there instead.
Linda, Cool!
Jason, OMG, you were in the same room with 'HIM'! Ted Neely was very special to me, yup, one of 'those'. And the Judas guy could sing like nobody's business, my god!
Mojo- Welcome! Hope to see you back!
Colleen, Thank you, we two are cat lovers huh? The orange one in the picture is Marlow as a kitten. He lives with me now. The other cat, Oly, lives in California with my mom now. I miss him sometimes, he is such a sweetie. But he and Marlow don't really, um, relate...
Rick! I hope you enjoyed the trip through my past posts. I just saw that you posted something and I have to catch up too! Always so great to see you here.
Speaking of Marquez- i got Living To Tell The Tale from calcutta this time. it is an amazing book, certainly unlike any other autobiography i have ever read...
Okay, I have to say this... your movie taste is weird. :D :D :D
Though I haven't seen any of them and can only imagine what 'Jesus Christ Superstar' would be like. Would see it. :P
You did good by going through with the tag. :)
Cat, have you read the book, "Pope Joan" by Donna Woolfolk Cross? It was a mind-blowing book which I've read more than once. If you haven't read it yet, you'll LOVE it!
love kits !
Love your choices and seeing how many things we share. K. Lawson-Gilbert tagged me, so I'll do this one in a bit.
Hey Cat - wow....I loved that movie, too - Passion in the Desert! Wasn't the ending so sad?
Great list!
I love your meme. I can't do them well myself, but I love reading other peoples'. I guess I just love "sneaking a peek" into other peoples' lives (aka I'm nosy). Hee hee.
But yours is great, and I feel like I just got to know you a little better, which is very cool. Your travels are awesome. I wish I could go! You could definitely write a novel. When you do, I want to read it!
