Part of my Gumby Collection
I suppose eventually someone around here is going to point out how unprofessional it is to have these hanging in my office.

Part 1: Short Stories I’ve been going through my “library” of science fiction books, looking to reread old friends that I haven’t visited in too long a time. I’ve read Holdstock’s Mythago Wood, which was a more difficult and intricate read than I remembered. I’ve worked my way through LeGuin’s Earthsea books, and have just…
We’ve Come a Long Way, Baby

Mr. Squirrel comes to call.
I get the impression that Mr. Squirrel pays far more regular visits to the balcony than I was aware of. The cats seem to have Mr. Squirrel’s routine down cold though, even though I don’t. It was the Professor who noted yesterday that Mr. Squirrel must be paying a repeat visit, because the ACfH was…
Dang it all.
It’s pouring. The lights are flickering. I still have about 25% of my paperwork to do. I can’t put it off until tomorrow – I have tomorrow off for yet more doctor’s appointments. If we lose power I’m going to be here forever. And it’s been that kind of day.
A stroll in the park.
No, hardly a stroll, I fear. This was three hours of climbing straight uphill, then heading straight downhill, only to head straight uphill again. It was good exercise, and I enjoyed myself immensely, but sheesh, haven’t those guys ever heard of “switchbacks”????? The Professor and I spent the day at Susquehannock State Park, which is…
Ballooning.
So my MELD score dropped from 22 to 18. Apparently, according to my lab work, I’m getting healthier. Yeah, right. All I’m getting at the moment is more bloated; I gained four and a half pounds over the last two days alone, and I suspect all of it is fluid. My elastic-waist slacks now serve…
Charley Pride? Far out…
i thought about training my Daisy…but she shows no interest. i firmly believe you *can* train cats, the problem is that they are not as easily manipulated as dogs. That, and cats just don’t care.
your training sessions with the cats made me smile! lol.
i got a cat yesterday, myself–one made of wood. it will always be sitting.
sorry about your aches 🙁
yeah! cat’s seem to love that tartar control pounce. my mina comes when i ask her to…your CW reminds me of her.
So you’re coming to Nashville! I’ll have to keep my eyes peeled for you – even though I’ve only seen you from the eyes up! Anyway, I had to laugh at your saying you’d have to check out the "finer local restaurants"… we’re not known for our great restaurants… but there are a few good ones. My favorite is The Medditeranean Cuisine on 21st Avenue South (just south of downtown). Also good is Calypso Cafe (in 2 locations). August Moon is okay for Chinese food; it’s in Green Hills (about a 10 minute drive from downtown). If you’re staying in town, a good one down there is Big River Grille & Brewer Works on Broadway (that’s where S and I had our very first date!). Hope you have a good time!
Sugar and Chocolate??? How did I end up with Beer and Vanilla LOL!!!
I have a friend that goes to a vet conference every year. I’m thinking it was hmmm on the East Coast last year and Hawaii the year before. Same conference? They always turn it into a sight seeing trip and seem to really enjoy themselves.

It’s HPS alright?
Geez, what would a Space Cadet know about diseases, anyway? Eh? Eh?
Hmpf!
I have never heard of Sugar Gliders before. I want a pet like that! With wings 🙂 yay!
Oh, and I wanted to have ‘cur’ as my username, because it’s always been my online nickname, but for some reason I couldn’t have it, so I chose NooNoo. I got the silly nick at Angels in the Night chat :). You can call me cur, if you prefer. Most people do :).
Love,
cur
sugar gliders as pets? i didn’t know that.

Hope you are feeling better. I enjoyed reading your entry today.

I was alway envious of Gumby because he had a horse and I didn’t. Cool collection!
Oh No Mr. Bill….thanks for bringing back some good memories.
