Today is the eighth anniversary of the day I received the most comments ever on DD. It’s ironic, since it is also the shortest entry I ever made. Sometimes life is like that. The site has changed, people have moved on, but regardless of where everybody is now, my thanks remains.
Sal is on Sal’s bad side, Slipperman. I’ve made a series of decisions since the end of September that have resulted in far more strife and bad feelings than I ever imagined they would. I’m too proud to say I’m sorry. Hell, I’m not sorry. I still feel I was in the right. But because…
This could have been a summer from my youth. The heat was sticky, heavy – a wet winter coat that could not be doffed and hung up on the rack to dry. The storms were violent, pounding and alive with the smell of ozone and wet garden. The mornings were covered in dew and mist…
The new neighbors are moving in today! The cats are ecstatic! And I have something else to snoop on. Anybody ever see Hitchcock’s “Rear Window”? The Kitten and Cattitude are downstairs watching from the kitchen, but the O’Beast has settled in for a nice aerial view from my computer study. Not a great shot, but…
As a rule, I avoid these things. And the music loop at this one is annoying. But I like the answer.
Anybody remember the time a few months back when Kitten from Hell got her head stuck in the handles of a paper shopping bag? Well, proving that she is no Einstein of the cat kingdom, she did it again tonight. This time she didn’t go into full panic mode at least. When she realized she…
Oh, that just sent shivers down my spine. I remember that day very well (although oddly enough I don’t seem to have commented! I must have been following the news elsewhere), and how good the Professor was about letting us all know how things were going.
Eight years. What a gift it’s been.
Time is a funny thing. In some ways it seems like it was yesterday and in others a lifetime ago. Glad you’re still kicking 😉
wow. it went fast. i didn’t comment either it seems. i did visit though, with Slipperman. remember that like it was yesterday. continued good health to you.
I remember when I found out. It was late at night and we had just come home from someplace. Kendall had just gone to bed and I fired up my old computer. When I read the news I whooped and yelled so loudly that Kendall got up to see what the matter was. We hugged and did a happy dance in front of the fridge. Definitely one of my best DD memories! And what a great friend you’ve become in the years since! I’m getting goosebumps all over again.
Love,
Cali
