I realize that means little to most mylotters however, I am thrilled. They won against the Carolina Panthers in a close but convincing victory. Washington seems to do this every year. The first part of the season is crap, and...

wilsongoddard @snowy22315 Not really. I only know enough about sports to sort of cheer on a local team (amateur or pro) if the social setting dictates it. My sports knowledge is only somewhat better than that of a non-sporty sitcom character.

I was going to rest a bit after having fed Luna and turned on the TV. And there it was. Casablanca was begining! I forgot all else. I had to watch it again. And again it was perfect. Even the end was not corny as one would have...

wilsongoddard @marguicha I'm sort of letting it coast for the moment for a few reasons. After we move in a few weeks, though, he will be hearing about it if he continues existing in his own bubble.

Or so it was described online. This is a special one due to the eclipse that is supposed to start around 11:30 pm around here. I took this shot this evening at 6:35pm and boy was it a bright one....

wilsongoddard @rebelann I have a few places that I once knew quite well, but they have since become so overdeveloped that they are now unrecognizable.

Well, sorta anyway. I really hate that Boobear decided to confine herself to the southwest corner of the living room so I cut a couple sides out of a cardboard box and set it on top of the table I put under the...

wilsongoddard @rebelann Probably true. They did have a good morning together, though. His sister was in the mood to play with him, and they both seemed to have a good time. Of course, she tired of playing before he did; then, he was disappointed that she had called an end...

Ours are traveling cats. The girl has traveled since she was a kitten (and is now an *ahem* "experienced" kitten), and the boy has now managed three trips to his credit. This morning, I was thinking about cats who travel. The...

wilsongoddard @rebelann Yes, it is amazing how much noise there is at all hours. I know that cities tend to be high energy, but I've lived in ones before that weren't this noisy.

wilsongoddard @RubyHawk It will still be an apartment, but it will give us a bit more room to stretch out. This space, even in better circumstances, would be a bit tight quarters for the four of us. The male cat has more energy than a tiny apartment can handle, and the...

Nighttime and kitty crazies go paw-in-paw. Our boy was all hyped up to play, play, play earlier, and he demanded that I join him. So, I did, but he quickly grew tired of how I wanted to play. So, I "pounced" on him. Did you know...

wilsongoddard @RubyHawk I do try to be careful. I think that in another six months or so, he should be a bit less injurious in his play. His sister and I have both been working to teach him to have better manners.

wilsongoddard @marguicha He sometimes goes off into his own bubble with some documentaries--forgetting that he has a wife that would watch them with him. Our video viewing has gotten a bit more fragmented of late, unfortunately.

wilsongoddard @rebelann I hope that your area doesn't get all built up. I think that it likely has a long way to go before it reaches the level of this city, though.

wilsongoddard There is certainly a sibling out there for Nico. I think that the boy will be easier for his sister to deal with (and less injurious to me) if he has more room to run. I'd consider adding a dog to our family, but that isn't an option in a...
