I blinked and it is January 31st. Another mindfuck. I've had a lot to say, a lot to think about, and a lot I didn't write this month. I'd start to say something and it would irk me, so I'd draft it and move on. In the meantime, I did manage to read over sixty … Continue reading Where Did This Month Go?

Etiquette
I'm highly impressed with the cat's posture. Little feet on the plate... I can't stop laughing. For the record, I trained my cats, as kittens, NOT to go on the dining room table or the kitchen counters, and they're generally good about listening because I made it a mandatory thing.

A lot can change in a … Continue reading Save Yourself
