Yeah, the cat gets a lot of ink, but what can I say, she’s news worthy.

So, here’s a few other adventures our cat had while we were gone:

  • she ate plants so much that Dave, one of our cat sitters, put up chicken wire around his indoor plants to keep her away

  • as karmic revenge, Aimee gave him an allergic reaction that sent him to hospital

  • she threw up hairballs

  • she chewed up some toy planes

  • she clawed at the bedroom door of anyone trying to sleep

  • the word “crazy” and “handful” came up more than once

    All this I’m documenting here so that if, in future, we ask you to take care of our cute little cat while we’re away, at least we can say you were warned.

    Welcome back, Aimee!

  • Overheard

    “The sad truth is that most evil is done by people who never make up their minds to be good or evil.”

    ...who said it?

    “Almost every American I know does trade large portions of his life for entertainment, hour by weeknight hour, binge by Saturday binge, Facebook check by Facebook check. I’m one of them. In the course of writing this I’ve watched all 13 episodes of House of Cards and who knows how many more West Wing episodes, and I’ve spent any number of blurred hours falling down internet rabbit holes. All instead of reading, or writing, or working, or spending real time with people I love.”

    ...who said it?

    “Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.”

    ...who said it?

    “I play with variables constantly.”

    ...who said it?

    “Only the person who has learned Continual Love coming from a heart of Gratitude/Worship can effectively deal with the problem of loneliness.”

    ...who said it?
