I’ve written before about Renton’s recent habit of sleeping on my pillow at night. I guess it’s not so recent now; he’s been doing it for quite a few months. There’s never been a problem with it. If he takes up too much room I just head-butt him a bit. Problem solved. Unfortunately, Renton never […]

litterbug
It’s amazing how easy my cats can exasperate me. I just got finished replacing the cat litter, which is a bitch of a process because Renton flings the stuff everywhere and Hermione tends to mis-aim, sending pee all over the bathtub. I clean it all up, wash everything off, and put in nice, brand-spanking new […]
Christmas Statistics
Barf puddles of artificial tree Renton has given me: 3 Presents Hermione has opened that are not hers: 2 (one twice) I think I will be ever so glad to be done with Christmas this year.
bless you
Poor Renton has come down with a cold. He’s waddled around the apartment all day sniffing and snorting, spraying sneezes everywhere. He won’t share much, but he will share his germs. This evening Steven and I were settling down in bed to read when we hear Sniffing Renton coming down the hall to be with […]
Right on Target
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 […]
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 […]
Let me ‘splain . . . no, there is no time to ‘splain, let me sum up
Well, me and everybody I know here in town is hoarse this morning. Saturday was a great day for team-spirited screaming. 10 and 0, baby, 10 and 0. _____________________________ It is officially Not Summer anymore — Steven had to start up the heater this morning. It’s going to be in the high 30s tonight! I […]
Clang, clang!
Hey . . . hey . . . hey . . . HEY! Guess what? It’s damn near GameDay! Tomorrow we play Mississippi State, which has acquired a fabulous new coach, so that makes for an interesting game. It’s in Starkville, though, so I’m not going (Dad says that city is aptly named). And just […]
100% Hilarious
Why do I end up with the cats that have fiber issues? I’m sure we all remember Renton’s escapades with sweaters and afghans. Now it seems Hermione has some termite in her family tree. It started with the unfinished cat condo Steven and I built. Hermione’s first-pick spot is at the very tip-top. Renton would […]
One Trip, Two Trip, Good Trip, Bad Trip (but not as in ‘drugs’)
Last weekend turned out rather swimmingly, methinks. You don’t get to drive around downtown Atlanta every day. That is, if you don’t live in downtown Atlanta . . . and if you do, please accept my sincere deriding laughter. “Ha ha!” We arrived in Atlanta for the symphony a little after one o’clock despite our […]
