This is Stormy. He was injured by blunt force trauma to his face, an injury that required one of his eyes to be removed. The other eye is covered in cataracts as a result of bleeding inside the eyeball. Stormy is blind, with no chance of having his sight restored. He’s our “new cat” — [...]
…I hope there’s a lot of stuff like this. Tooling around on my Cervelo with Mooch and my other cats on penny farthings sounds like a pretty awesome time.
Hey Internets, how’s your week been? Mine’s been pretty awesome, despite the hard labor at the office. Last night, we hit up Mac’s Industrial for trivia and I discovered their awesome menu (and food), and Odell’s IPA. We also won both rounds of trivia that night. Kate came up with some awesome answers, and I [...]
So TempCat™, Max, goes back to Jimmy’s place this Sunday, and I’m really going to miss the goofy bastard. He’s been settled into our routine nicely, and I’m getting attached to the guy, which sucks. Kate was right when she said that he fit neatly into the empty spot that Mooch left. He didn’t replace [...]
Okay, not really. I just haven’t had a lot of time to post here, which sucks, because I was just starting to build up some readership (per Google Analytics). Wedding prep continues. We discovered that we under-registered, so we’re looking to add a few things. Ordering invites tonight or tomorrow. Groomsmen gifts tonight, too. Got [...]
Today marks a year since we had Mooch put down. I still miss her terribly.
Going to try to get a few more posts up this week. Going to be busy again, but probably not batshit crazy like last week. A few new things to report: 1. Framebuilding. You knew this was coming, didn’t you? Yeah, well. Here’s what’s up — all that’s left is mounting the disc brake tabs, [...]
This video, taken in Antalya, Turkey, is one of the saddest things I’ve ever seen — a cat, hit by a car, and her companion that refused to leave her side for two hours, and then only when medics took her to the veterinarian. Seriously, you cannot tell me that animals don’t feel emotion and [...]
Had a minor breakthrough with Vinnie the other morning. He was curled up on the couch and I had SportsCenter on. I sat down near him, which is usually the point where he starts getting uneasy. I put my hand on him, not to pet him or anything, just to see how he’d react. Normally [...]
Hooray. It’s Vinnie. As you can tell from my faux enthusiasm above, Vinnie is my least favorite of the four cats we have. I don’t hate him, but I don’t have a particularly strong bond with him, either. The running commentary around here is that he hates anything with two legs. And that’s not far [...]
