Took this 2 weeks ago, as the Bears were in their last throes of the Oregon game.

I forgot where I originally saw the cat sweater pattern, but it made it to Cute Overload (and that model is Fred's stunt double!).

Knitting is everywhere....

Especially in the comics! Today's Rhymes with Orange.

Time waster for a cause

Via Away With Words: FreeRice donates to the UN World Food Program, for each word you get right. Warning: this is very addictive.

Monday Mirth

I'm taking a page from Bonnie Marie. Some Monday mirth.

Bonus laugh

Today's Rose is Rose comic.

Although I think the punchline should be "I'm a knitter!"

ECF: empty pier

Summer's clearly over.

(In all honesty, I took this photo in March. But this is an honest rendition of what this pier looks like today - an off-season day.)

Update on Fred

I managed to find this old photo of Fred. He still looks like this, though.

While his personality has returned to normal, the pooper still isn't...well...producing. I got some hairball gel and some chicken flavored fiber pellets. We've been supplementing his food with these morning and evening, and I just can't believe it. Fred is so excited to get chicken flavored PILLS! They're big horse pills, with chicken flavor, and it says to break them in pieces to "release the flavor". I can understand him lapping up gravy (heck, I'd do that!) but broken up bits of pills? He can't get enough of it. Then he finishes up with the fish-flavored gel, although it's clearly second-best.

We're hoping after a few days of this, things will start moving through and we won't have to worry so much.
