A Balanced Diet
You know, you do everything you can for your cats. Teach them right from wrong, nurture their little dreams and convince them they can be anything they want in life as long as it’s a cat. But sometimes, no matter … Continue reading
I Don’t Know How To Tell You…
But I have to say something. I have a guilty conscience. I have been blogging on another site behind your back. I know it’s wrong, but the temptation was just too much. I hope when you meet my paramour you’ll … Continue reading

Not So Constructive Criticism
I have been working furiously on final touches to my book. Today was the day I asked Dan to start reading it. He’s read older versions, but I’ve done a ton of revisions since then. I anxiously watch his face, … Continue reading
Choking And Smoking
In case you forgot, I watch a whole lot of TV. Typically I TiVo (yes, it’s a noun and a verb) shows and fast forward through commercials. TiVo is sort of a spiritual experience for me; I wouldn’t say I … Continue reading
Save Our Planet
I’ve been worried a lot lately about my carbon footprint. Specifically, I think I may be producing too many words, and possibly poisoning the ground water supply. It is well established that I never stop talking, and for the last … Continue reading

Lost Dogs and Lucky Cats
Am I a magnet for weird people? Answer that question carefully. I was just eating lunch, that’s all. Lots of people do that right? I was minding my own business-hovered over my laptop and not even looking up. A gentleman walks right … Continue reading
Killer Cats
I don’t want to be dramatic, but I’m pretty sure my cats are trying to kill me. First Helen throws her tail right under my foot trying to trip me, then Jack and Janet take naps stretched out across the steps … Continue reading
Have A Laugh On Me. Please.
You know what’s funny? No? Neither does Dan. He is by far my toughest audience. He tends to sit quietly while I laugh at my own jokes. How pathetic does that make me? My millions (upon millions) of adoring fans … Continue reading
