Felix is delighted to see you!

I broke my leg and ankle today in a bad fall. Turns out I'm terrible at using crutches, which needs to change soon since I can't put any weight on it for ??? weeks.
Felix and Fanny are now just two little fast tripping hazards. They're still inspecting my splint and crutches. #catsky

Fanny has the bedtime banana at the ready, and it's time for bed.

i stayed up too late last night. Fanny got so aggravated that she dragged her bedtime banana (pictured) downstairs while meowing loudly, dropped it next to me, sat down firmly and glared at me.
i wrongly thought bedtime banana was only for the bed.

Felix and Fanny do NOT understand why I have not gotten out of bed yet.
They're on my stomach. If I don't get up soon they'll drape themselves over my neck and on my pillow. I'd better make some coffee.

i love Bluesky because tonight I chatted with delightful cat people and ...
saw some beautiful jewelry and art, discovered an online copy of a rare book, made jokes about cybertruck drivers, and made some commentary on sexual harassment in academia
all from the comfort of my couch ❤️

Felix is insisting that I stay on the couch which is a problem since at minimum I need more coffee
and I really should be sorting through file boxes

somebody brought this up once in the context of Florida voters in 2000 and it fucked me up so much
just the cascading effects on our whole society from losing such a tidal wave of queer people
just the cascading effects on our whole society from losing such a tidal wave of queer people
A few weeks ago I was talking politics with a local, highly straight, bartender.
All the sudden he said: “Well, I think a big part of the problem is that so many of the people who would’ve been our progressive leaders died of AIDS & can’t help us now.”
And I’ve thought about that every day since.

Ran out of photo storage so posting cat pix has been a challenge!
But here's Felix enjoying a sunbath! This is actually Fanny's grey blanket, so she'll come back soon and just lie down on top of him until he moves. Siblings!

Just woke up, looked to my left.
Fanny brought me a wake-up present.
She was silently staring at me.

Opened my purse, found half a peanut butter sandwich, do not remember making it yesterday (though clearly I did).
Am I ok?
