I kept thinking, geez, I really have to update, otherwise my readers (ha ha ha) are going to think Gwen died.…and then today, she did. To be fair, she made it through surgery. She did really well, actually. There was one day where she was very, very uncomfortable, and then she improved quickly. I have… Continue reading Gwendolyn Stacy, Kitty of Valor
For some reason, Gwen has taken up residence in the bathroom. I apologize for the hair. We change out the bath mats and wash them regularly, but she’s a very sheddy kitty. It’s no secret that Gwen has about thirty things wrong with her. She’s put up with a lot for such a tiny girl.… Continue reading On the Sickly Sassico
This is one of the songs that takes me back to my teens – specifically my early teens. I remember sitting on my back porch playing it on repeat while pining over my first real crush.
So, my sweet, sweet boy took the above screenshot from Mass Effect 2 this evening. (It’s the remastered edition, and I HIGHLY recommend it.) Maybe he has a crush on Jack? Who knows, tough tatted up biotics might be his thing. But here’s the rub: *I* don’t know how to take screenshots in game. I… Continue reading Vizzi Knows More About Technology…
I’ve been in a very “set fire to all the things!” kind of mood. Not literally, of course, but I’m just itching to get rid of things we don’t need anymore, and trying to look in those nooks and crannies that usually escape my notice. Well, today I ran across the vet records for the… Continue reading Out of Time
About a month ago, I bought a pillow. Little did I know, I bought a pillow for Aeris. She has completely taken it over, especially at night. Her nighttime routine used to involve her snuggling up between Matt and I for a little while before relocating to a more comfortable location. But now that pillow… Continue reading Aeris Conquers All
Maybe you’ve kept up with my tear duct saga, maybe not. So here’s a brief recap: With increasing frequency (once every few years, now at least once a year), my eye has gotten very watery/has had some gunky discharge, indicating that my tear duct is blocked. So I’ve tried medicated eye drops and antibiotics and… Continue reading It’s Gonna Be Surgery Soon
When we got Aeris, she was more of a handful than I anticipated. I remembered our quiet, docile, elder cats. I had no idea what I was getting into with a six week old kitten. She was, and has remained, a rambunctious scratcher and climber. When she was young, I threatened many times that if… Continue reading Throwback: On Declawing
Matt bought a wobby stool. Intentionally. Sometimes I think that my husband just hates being comfortable, but he says that it’s supposed to ease pressure on your joints and force you to make micro-adjustments while perching on it that help (kinda) build muscle strength over time. As I said, I think he just hates being… Continue reading Of Wobbly Stools and Busy Days
