1. I got the new camera I’d been saving up for. I’m now the owner of a Canon Powershot G9. I’ve gone out and done some test shots to get used to it, but since my computer is in the shop right now, I can’t post ‘em yet. Joel’s computer doesn’t [...]

There was this one Invader Zim episode where Zim turns Dib into bologna because Dib threw bologna at Zim. (click this link to view the episode in another browser) When Bologna comes in contact with Zim’s skin, it fuses to him, causing him immense pain and wailing. I know that makes no earthly sense, but there [...]

I had a 3-day weekend this past weekend due to Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Day. A 3-day weekend is always welcome - in fact, I wish they all were, considering as how I generally spend all of Saturday on the run, then Sunday doing basically jack. That Monday in a typical 3-day [...]

1. Confession time! (oh, this is going to be fun!) I sometimes confuse or conflate various celebrities or famous people, because I don’t follow their doings closely and maybe they look kind of alike, or have similar names. For example, I can’t ever keep David Duchovny & George Clooney straight in [...]

I had no big hairy plans today, honestly. Maybe go for a bike ride and take some pictures, weather permitting, probably sit around in front of the fireplace reading and occasionally shoving a cat’s butt off my book. I didn’t expect to actually get anything accomplished.
It all started out with me waking up [...]

I had to pill her this morning; it only went as well as it did because she wasn’t feeling so great. In any case, the pill went down her throat with only minimal trauma to all involved, and then I left her to her own devices until lunchtime. I buzzed home on lunch break to [...]

Sugar, AKA Smallcat, AKA Little Miss is sick. I took her in to the vet today where she was found to have a 105.4F fever. Doc Elliston gave her an injection of a strong antibiotic and sent us home with a pill for tomorrow, instructions to test her temperature rectally tomorrow, and orders [...]

My cat has a coat of arms.
Words cannot describe how much this amuses me. The Ancient Arms of Griswald!
Frankly, if I were designing a coat of arms for Griswald, a large, plumy tail would have to feature into it somewhere.
People frequently ask me if Griswald was named after the family featured in the National Lampoon [...]

Because then my recycling bin stinks of cat-piss and I have to hose it out before I can bring it inside, and frankly, I’m not enthusiastic about using a garden hose in the middle of December. Go figure.
And then, because un-neutered cats’ piss is so pungent and adhesive, the bin is still smelly and [...]

What you see here is the main reason people keep housepets. Because pets are goofy and often amusing.
That thing on Sugar’s head? Is the plastic bag a column of saltine crackers had come in. We’d had soup and finished off some crackers, and Sugar felt compelled to grab the bag and run [...]
