All wheels must have a hub. A Ferris wheel has one, as the sun is the hub of the wheeling calendar. Fixed points they are, and best left undisturbed, for without them, nothing holds together.

Of Peeps and Poops
Poor Peeps. Not long after we got her, we noticed some loose poops in the litter box. Then we noticed some blood. That didn’t bode well, so we made an appointment for her with the vet. Faithful Reader acquired a … Continue reading
Sorry for September
September is my favorite month. The weather is finest at this time of year, and I’m not just saying that because my birthday is in September and because my mother always says that the day I was born was one … Continue reading

Mystery Twofer

I am like the Michael Phelps of wedding planning. Eat…sleep…work…plan wedding. When do I get my medal?
Weddings=Work
I am so far behind on blogging. I haven’t told you about the second half of my vacation, or the books I’ve read recently, or my progress on the wedding plans. It is the wedding plans that are causing the … Continue reading
Cat-Aclysm?
How many times have Faithful Reader and I joked about going to the Kitty Farm to adopt a new cat? I can’t speak for Faithful Reader, but I never intended to go. And yet on July 27th, we went to … Continue reading
The Bruce Is Back
It had been months since we last knowingly heard from Bruce, an obviously troubled man who had been desperately reaching out for his old friend. I say “knowingly” because we no longer have caller ID, so Bruce may be also … Continue reading
