Sundays with Tabs the Cat, Makeup and Beauty Blog Mascot, Vol. 184

March 25th, 2012 by Karen 17 Comments

Tabs for Illamasqua Feline Fundamentalism

Someone left the house intending to go grocery shopping this afternoon, only that someone then got sidetracked on the road somewhere near the Novato movie theaters. Then, that someone — I’m not naming any names here; we don’t judge — went to go see The Hunger Games for the second time.

Wow, I like movies, don’t I? I see a lot of movies. Some of them even twice! 🙂

Actually, this was the first movie I’ve seen twice at the theaters in years. I can’t even remember the last one.

In other news, Mad Men! I did end up doing my grocery shopping after the movie, and as soon as I change into my jammies and whip up something quick to eat, I’m gonna watch the season premiere.

It’s weird. Mad Men has been on hiatus for 17 months. That’s what I read somewhere. Dang, that’s a long time. 17 months? The actors have to look a little different after that much time.

Tabs is in charge of the remote tonight, so I better go prepare his gravy. He had a pretty busy week of kitty modeling. He worked with China Glaze, Illamasqua, MAC, Rouge Bunny Rouge (actually, an affiliate of theirs) and Urban Decay.

Who is Tabs the Cat? About four years ago I befriended a stray, flea-bitten tabby cat with a bad case of worms. I could see he’d fallen on hard times, but his profound knowledge of high fashion and department store cosmetics led me to believe that he was more than meets the eye. We became fast friends, and now he’s actually my boss (and a successful kitty model). 🙂

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

P.S. Tabs is a firm believer in striking while the iron’s hot, which is why he’s trying to do as much kitty modeling as possible while he’s in his prime. To see the rest of his extensive body of work, you can also browse through the archives here.

    Wheee you saw it for the second time already! I might if a friend wants a movie buddy 🙂 Remember a while ago you said you’re team Peeta all the way (that was before I finished the first book I think)? Guess what? I AM TOO!

    I am once again amazed by your kitty modeling career, Tabs! Fat Tabby Turkey Feast? That’s just genius :p

    I love movies too! Saw two this weekend, A Separation and Hunger Games. And is it crazy that I want to see Titanic when its rereleased? Love that movie! As for Mad Men I like to wait for the DVD’s so I can watch them all at once!

    How was seeing Hunger Games a second time? Did you caught any details you missed the first time?

    I read Mad Men had a long 17 month break too. I saw an interview clip of the whole cast. Everyone looked really good.

    I thought the Rouge Bunny Rouge affiliate would be Rouge Kitty Rouge. Maybe he should work for with them next time? 😉

    Some of these posters are hilarious. I don’t think assistant gets nearly enough credit.

    I’ve been looking forward to the Mad Men Season 5 too. Can’t wait until it airs (UK).
