Littermaid
A little over a week ago, Toby Joe brought home a Littermaid. A Littermaid is like the Roomba for cats and their poop. It does it all for you. Your kitty enters, poops, and then 10 minutes later (if there is no movement) it kicks on and combs away the poop and pee clumps. Brilliant.…

Los Angeles
Well, just when you thought our lives couldn’t get any more insane, Toby Joe is offered a transfer to the Los Angeles office for the company he works for. I’m besides myself with freak. We would have to be there in May. And the project would begin then, too. They would pay for ABSOLUTELY everything…

Myself, a can of tuna, and three kitty cats.
Last night I was opening a can of tuna when I realized it was filled with oil. Annoyed with myself, I thought, “You ALWAYS check this kind of thing, Michele. What the hell?” I turned to check on the other can of tuna I purchased at the same time. That tuna was submerged in water.…

Rewind via 80.
Tonight, as I was looking at the map trying to figure out how we’re going to get back home again, Tucker decided to lay down on TOP of the northeastern part of our great nation. I hope you all were very warm. This time, as we cross the Great Divide (what the hell is the…

The Rubberband Theory
A little over 8 months ago, Toby was offered a job in San Francisco. We turned them down because the money wasn’t good enough and we didn’t know if we actually could move all the way across the country in the time allotted. They came back to us with a new offer. We turned it…

Time's up
I am leaving D.C. on Wednesday afternoon. I was supposed to stay until Saturday, but my work is done and I miss home. It will be nice to have my stuff again. I miss my cats. And, of course, my husband. Tonight, Soung, David and I head out to the 9:30 Club to see Beep…

Cross Your Fingers For Bruno.
Something totally not so cool has happened. And I worried about it all night while I tried to sleep. It’s a long story, but I’ll get into it anyway. Nearly three weeks ago (a week before I headed east, and two before Toby had) our neighbors, Bob and Cass wen overseas for a long vacation.…

A Day of Links
Branson has always been a bit odd. Soon, for the low, low price of $200,000 you may take a trip into space on Virgin. Not sure how I feel about this. Another fun thing for the obscenely rich to rant about. Today, the District finds out, finally, if the Expos will indeed have a new…

Updates on Random
Let’s see, I’m going to just vomit this out. Here are a few random things I’ve experienced during my stay in D.C. (in no order, because I have little time.) We rented a wheelchair at work for a photo shoot and had a contest to see who could lap the office the fastest. Scott won…

Friends
I think the most helpful thing I have realized while visiting and working in D.C. over the past week is how important it is to be near friends and family. I guess something has changed in me over the past several years. Perhaps it was right around having met Toby, I’m not sure. But either…
