A Boy and His Cat (Tuesdays With Murray Ch:105)
It’s been really hot lately, which means our outside time has been cut in half. Lately, I’ve been taking Emory out in the morning for a few hours and returning home before it gets too unbearable. The excessive heat has me brainstorming more exciting indoor activities, which is why we recently brought out the paint…

Paper Towels! (Tuesdays With Murray ch:104)
Murray has a thing for paper towels. We have no idea why. It’s a mighty good thing it’s adorable otherwise we might stop him more often. But we can’t. I have decided that he does this because it comforts him, like maybe they used paper towels in his cage when he was a kitten? I…

What Lies Below (TWM 103)
We’re away for the week, trying to get our heads in a better place. My brother and his girlfriend are staying at our place in Brooklyn so they have been tasked with taking care of our fatties. The road to feeling normal again is proving to be a slow and rather hilly one. I go…

Three (I MEANT FOUR!) Photos
It’s been brought to my attention that I’ve been a little depressing as of late. Oh, Internet, you don’t even know the half of it. But there’s been some laughter here as well. Every time I sit down to write, it’s either too depressing or it’s filled with anxiety and worry. I am working through…

NO! MINE! (TWM: Chapter 101)
It was only a matter of time before my sweet son turned into a demanding and temperamental toddler whose favorite two words are: mine! and NO! More often than not, these two words appear together with a booming, “NO! MINE!” We don’t like these words very much, I reckon we dislike them as much as…

Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 98)
Murray crawled up next to me on Thursday night and started making biscuits on the blanket I had overtop of me. He then did a couple of donuts before settling into place. Murray sleeps curled up a lot, a pose we’ve come to refer to as “The Croissant Kitty”. When he sleeps this way, almost every back…

Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 97)
Last week I woke up to find the balloon we had attached to Emory’s stroller deflated. The string sat lifelessly on the floor behind it. At the end of the string, trailing behind it like a dead fish, were the remains from a yellow balloon. I got a closer look and noticed that a great…

Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 95)
Murray is perfect. I don’t want this post to give you the wrong impression. But even perfect beings fart. And lately, our perfect being has been farting a lot. This is entirely Toby Joe’s fault. He decided to pick up a few new varieties of Weruva. Usually, Murray and Tucker eat Paw Lickin’ Chicken, Grandma’s Chicken…

Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 94)
When I approached them to take the shot, they were sound asleep and it was cute. My moving nearer to them woke them up. But this is still pretty cute. I can’t comprehend how anyone is capable of hurting a cat (or any animal for that matter). Look at them!
