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 had my final Latin class last night. It’s a case of “I’m going to miss it, but I’m glad it’s over.” There were three students there last night, down from nine – 66% attrition rate. The course was very much what I expected, but I think some of the other students who took it…
I walked into work this morning, and found I’d stumbled into the middle of same debate that The Minion and I had yesterday. This time it was The Minion vs. The Mouth. In the face of all that transpired yesterday, I found this amusing. And, in the face of what transpired yesterday, I proved I…
Three more Google hits for Pfaltzgraff dishes. Maybe I should make them available retail through this Diary. It might help pay off the costs incurred by Kitten from Hell. I am STILL looking for a free web host for a couple of sites I want to put up. I can’t believe how restrictive most of…

No, not a permanent move. Yet. But I will be out there for a week in August. I purchased the tickets for the Professor and myself Sunday night, and made arrangements for the rental car yesterday evening. This is all stuff that my husband used to do, and I can feel myself shedding insecurities as…
Second time this year, though a different bone. No idea how long I’ll be laid up this time; earliest I can see specialist is Monday, but I have to work my way through worker’s comp first. Which I’ve already run through because I broke my ankle earlier this year and chewed through this year’s time….
Oh dear…
So sorry.

BassPlayer was home for lunch when I got notified about this, so he saw it, too. We both thank you very, very much for this, and for your encouraging words elsewhere. They mean a lot, coming as they do from someone with your own background in veterinary medicine.
And no, it’s not too early to joke. As I told someone else, I’m sure that if there’s a cat heaven, Vogue is probably trying to put the fear of God into God himself right now. Heh. 🙂
What a gorgeous little face! I really wish I had known her.
rest in peace Vogue, i didn’t know you but i do know that your kind are true innocents in the world and bring amazing amounts of joy with no strings attached.
