I met this kid at a party…
Last week, I met this kid at my cousin’s birthday party. I say “kid” because he was 24 years old. That’s 10 years younger than me, turns out. That’s scary. When did 24 years old become younger than me? We chatted for a while about cameras and photography in general. Come to find out, I [...]
The Cat in My Yard
Several days ago, I heard meowing coming from my backyard. My first thought was that one of the cats had gotten out and was crying for it’s mama (me). I went and looked, but no, it was a beefy grey cat. Yay! I’ve been wanting a yard cat for a while now. Why, you might [...]
That horrible smell coming from the bathroom
Friday, as I was walking passed the kid’s upstair’s bathroom, I caught a whiff of something rancid. I went in to inspect further, looking all around, I was unable to find anything. I began to suspect that maybe the kids had disregarded a bologna sandwich or worse, something had died in there.
We’ve had issues [...]
There’s a Moose Loose in the Hoose!
Last night as I lay sleeping, I hear the familiar cat cry of, “Mommy, I’m stuck somewhere, come get me out” from Matilda – which is generally a meek sounding mew that is more akin to a whimper. Or at least that’s what I thought I heard.
Sometimes the cats just mew because they’re looking [...]
Cats decide their own nicknames
I’ll never forget the scene in Logan’s Run where Peter Ustinov tells Logan that cats have more than one name. He does, in fact, quote T.S. Eliot:
You know, they’ve each got three names. Yes. The naming of cats is a difficult matter, It’s just not one of your holiday games; You may think at [...]
What My Cats Teach Me About Perseverance
Several months ago, ex-boyfriend Todd and his girlfriend moved to Morocco. They needed to re-home their cats, one of which came from the same litter as Matilda. Despite being sisters, Eva and Matilda did not like each other immediately – as you would imagine they might. That’s just us humans thinking wishfully.
We now had [...]
Can I Blog Now?
I hate not blogging in a long while because so many things occur during the gaps and it all slips away from my memory…which is the whole point of keeping a blog: Not letting things slip away from my memory.
I guess, all I can do is sum up, really. I’ve been making an [...]
Weee!
New iPhone app that allows me to upload images and blog remotely. So far, iPhone 2.0 is the shizzle.

My Compost Bin. Let Me Show You It.
Today at the farmer’s market, I was approached by Green Peacers. I’m all about activism, if that’s your thing, but as far as I’m concerned, I’m more about doing what’s right for the environment in my own way and leading by example. The Green Peacers were nice enough, but as I was talking to them, [...]
Happiness Is…
…kittens snuggling on the window sill.
Whenever the world seems unfair or things don’t go the way I planned, walking into a room and finding this makes it all better. It’s Caturday all right.
