    We have more and more people coming over now that we live in the new place and a few of them have asked to meet Murray. It only recently occurred to me how crippled my cat is when it comes to socializing, partly because we never really had anyone over before. Truth be told, he…

    Remember the post I wrote about how Emory was terrified of the Fisher Price Glow Worm? That’s the dish we use to feed our cats. Apparently someone decided that Glow Worm was hungry for some canned cat food. All I know is it wasn’t me and Toby was at work at the time. Glow Worm…

    We dropped Em off at school today for his first full day. I keep checking my phone to make sure they haven’t called letting me know he hasn’t stopped crying. I keep checking the clock to make sure I didn’t enter a time-warp and I’m actually hours late picking him up so they gave him…

    I anticipated a rough week. And I could probably sum this post up in one sentence but that would be too easy. And this is a blog, blog posts are supposed to take up pages and pages of words before making one small point. And so! Emory had his first half day of school this…

    This is how Emory reacts to the hammering taking place on the floor above. We have no idea where he got this from. But it totally reminds me of our previous neighbors and their pipe-banging antics. My favorite part is where Toby Joe says, “STOP IT!” and Emory laughs, like, dude, that’s SO NOT THE…

    Murray’s first ever (witnessed) snowfall. Snow must be really strange for cats since the little white things resemble bugs, especially when the show is light and fluffy and the wind carries it every which way it can. He was fascinated. I was as well.

    I’m going back and forth regarding our decision to send Emory to school three days a week. My emotions aren’t to be trusted, however. Because a lot of how I’m feeling can easily be attributed to my fear of letting him go. But I know that some of my thoughts at the root of the…

    Five years ago today Toby Joe and I eloped to Niagara Falls. This is strange to me because it seems like it was just yesterday. But Toby Joe probably doesn’t believe me when I say that. He doesn’t even think I know when we were married let alone what happened that day. He twittered this…
