Last Thursday was Thanksgiving, and Renton celebrated by leaving us some ‘dressing’ in the hallway that morning. Thank you, son. I cleaned it up since I was first out of bed, lucky me. My grumbling got Steven up. “Happy Turkey Day,” Steven said. “You know what I’m thankful for?” “What?” I asked. “That you got […]

Martin Luther is horrified
Just so y’all know, I have converted to Catholicism for the rest of the week. War damn Notre Dame! Now I must go say my Hail Marys and attend Mass.

Crackers make excellent bookmarks. When you come back to your book, there’s a snack!
shamless plug of cat
I had meant to write of this before but the football season carried me away in a swirl of orange and blue. Now that I have been reminded I shall tell you all about it. A few months ago Renton participated in the Infinite Cat Project. It’s a rather ingeniously kooky idea of a guy […]
