Kittens! Music! Pollen!

First of all, I finally bit the bullet and adopted two beautiful, 5 week old kittens. I spontaneously named the male Titus and the female Penelope. Penny's eye was badly infected when I got her, and had to be immediately removed. She is ridiculously energetic, though, and shows absolutely no ill effects whatsoever. Sadly, she'll never drive a car, but I will save a fortune on contact lenses. Titus has eyes that are set at nearly a 45-degree angle, and is the much more relaxed of the two. He likes to eat until he falls asleep with his face in the food and then sleepily fend off Penny's manic attacks with his hind legs. They're great.

Again with the music. The War on Drugs is getting some deserved press and praise, I think we're going to be in some magazines this month and next, I'll let you know. We have some tours coming up to! Like, Europe and stuff! Woohoo..

Here's a really great video that our new friends Hope and Ben made of Adam Arcuragi and his band in New York last February. It's charming and creative.
