in keeping with the “here’s a random cat” theme, here’s falcon (a.k.a. “fuzzy butt”):
the new chairs

you don't know me, you don't wear my chains
Augustana‘s “Boston” on the ipod. good stuff, we happened upon them because they were opening for some of the Goo Goo Dolls / Counting Crows shows in the last tour we saw.
this is a general ramble/update; there is no direction. read on for all the latest news of the recent past and the present.
meet: simon
simon is currently an extended foster, who might become a member of the household once his medical issues are cleared up. he makes up the half of the “odd couple” duo with hopper. simon is definitely the jack klugman of the two.
where are the kids in the hall?
just flipping past FX this morning and i saw The Wrong Guy, a movie from 1997 starring Dave Foley. got me wondering what they’re up to nowadays.
meet: hopper
hopper joined us not too long ago as cat #5 in our household. he’s an handsome devil. his codename is “mr. handsome pants.” no, i’m not making that up. no, this doesn’t make me seem overly masculine.
winter wunderbar
(snow) on the road agan
yep, weather’s turning crappy here again. basically, our winters are mild. like mid 40’s for highs, mid 30’s for lows. all winter. right? misconception that we have a normal northern hemisphere/northern north american winter — on this side of the mountains, we’re moderated by the ocean and the Puget Sound so our winters are milder.
so far this winter we’ve had several storms that have really sucked. i’ll continue to gripe about them if you choose to read more.
new house color
yes, i’ve been procrastinating. here’s the new color of the house!
remember, the under-porch area isn’t painted because we’re going to enclose it and make a back hallway between the kitchen and the laundry room.
