Dancing at the Desk

Whenever I hear “In Motion” by Trent Reznor/Atticus Ross, why, I just start bobbing and bouncing. Reflex. Kind of like my grumpy cat J. used to do whenever she heard Balinese Gamelan on the Nonesuch Sampler. Pavlovian.      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yczul_609Gg

Milo

Our kitty Milo passed away last Thursday night, and I'm sad. We rescued him from a spa in Calistoga in oh, about 1998. He had been failing for a few months. Our senior kitty boys seem to suffer from kidney problems eventually, no matter what we try.  I just returned from the midwest and I'm having a heck of a time adjusting to the time change.
