Rainy Days = Photos Of Cinnamon!
"What are you doing down there, human? I don't think you should be doing whatever it is you are doing."Still on day five of drizzle. Am I ever going to get out to scout for woodcocks for next weeks trip?? I'm having some non birding friends over for drinks Monday night...maybe I'll get them hammered and take them out. They'll never know they went birding.
On the upside, we did wade our way through the mountain of receipts that is our taxes and it was a great movie weekend--Vertigo, Les Parapluie de Cherbourg (takes me back to high school french class--thank you Madame Theobald, where ever you are), The Quiet Man (that red head is no lie), The Great Escape (lotta hot men in that movie--mmmmmmm), Radio Days, Singin' in the Rain (I think I'm going to talk like Lina Lamont for th rest of the marriage), The Big Lebowski (movie responsible for my continued use of the word "dude"), Amelie, and ...Midnight Madness (that was more great for Non Birding Bill than it was for me). Hmmmmm, probably would have made it through the taxes a lot quicker without all that tv. Oh well, need something to ease the pain of trying to read dates on faded thermal paper.
FYI - A reader alerted me that there are some red-tailed hawks hanging out in Greenwich, CT. They're looking for some names and thought blog readers might have suggestions. Got any good names for a buteo, send 'em here.
And for the record, Cinnamon would like everyone to know that she in no way endorses or approves the above red-tailed hawks.
Rainy days are also good for gettin' in some good old fashioned bunny lovin'. Can't have a rabbit with velvety soft fur and not rub her ears for a good ten minutes.

"If we could bring some joy into your humdrum lives..." What a great collection of movies, including my all-time favorits, Singin' in the Rain! Isn't Jean Hagen a treasure? Donald O'Connor is also a fave. I just saw a very good film this weekend, Everything is Illuminated. If you liked Great Escape, you might also like The Dirty Dozen (this might be more up Non-Birding Bill's alley). Give 'em a shot!
I look at that first picture and the phrases that come to mind are...
"Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries...
I fart in your general direction...
Go away or i shall taunt you a second time..."
did she, at any point, start tossing cows, chickens and other farm animals at you?!!!

Archi Ann: I saw Monty Python's Spamalot a few weeks ago. Delightful to hear those lines in person (c:
Sharon: Heartily concur on "The Great Escape."
I agree with former posters; Spamalot (and Monty Python) provide a lot of good lines for Cinnamon.
Pippin "flopped" on the couch today. Why does he do that when I don't have my camera available? And why does he jump up, nose pumping anxiously, when the camera appears?
Good luck lushing up your non-birding friends. My non-ringer friends are just as ignorant when drunk.
Wellthe only thing that I'd add would be the fact that you should have watched Mel Brooks "Silent Movie." That is my rainy day ( or in our case snowy day ) option.
Zoey -
You are a person of my own heart--I love Silent Movie and I so rarely meet people who have seen it!
Mel Brooks rocks!
