Vogue
Thank you for your individuality, your loyalty, and for all the stories you’ve starred in. Your people will miss you greatly, but you left a cat-shaped hole in other hearts as well.

I just received this e-mail: > Just announced on the radio … > The U.S. has asked that everyone step out on their lawns tonight at 10:30 > (10:30 EASTERN TIME…. 9:30 Central, 8:30 Mountain, 7:30 Pacific) and > light a candle. They will be taking a satellite picture of the U.S. and > posting…
I’m discovering that the Little Black Shit has gotten rather good at finding non-food sources to eat. She has always been an incorrigible plastic bag eater, and we have to make sure that any plastic bags/wrap/etc. are thrown away immediately in a covered trash can.
