Life has been so hard lately. My heart is physically aching from sorrow and loneliness.

Sometimes (more times than not) I have days where I get home and all I can manage to do is curl up in a ball on the wooden floor in silence.

For everyone that’s been so desperately asking (literally no one), here’s my laptop background. Miso’s always watching. Never forget.
An open laptop with a grumpy Siamese cat as the background. To the left of the laptop is a handsome tuxedo cat.

I recommend that all of you take some time to listen to “So Long, Honey” by Caamp today because wow. So many feelings were provoked. Make sure to wear headphones or blast it in the car for full effect!

“And I think every child should have one star up in the sky that is all his own.”

Childhood innocence is so beautiful and delicate and admirable.
Photo of a book with a highlighted passage. The passage within “Dibs: In Search of Self” reads “I think every child should have a hill all his own to climb. And I think every child should have one star up in the sky that is all his own. And I think every child should have a tree that belongs to him.”

Most of the photos I take these days are of animals, specifically cats. In fact, I did the calculations, and photos of cats equate for 17% of my total camera roll (I have at LEAST 1,537 photos of cats. But, this doesn’t include the ones that aren’t recognized by my phone).

A Siamese cat sits in the lap of her human whom she pretends to hate unless behind closed doors. This was a rare event and required a photo. If you zoom into her face, she is staring at human angrily. A handsome tuxedo cat sits atop a cat perch mounted to the wall. He looks like batman. A Siamese cat is laying atop a cat perch mounted to the wall. Above her is a framed painting of a Siamese cat that looks like her. A handsome tuxedo cat lays on a pillow with his front paws stretched straight out in front of him (his go to sleeping pose). He’s side eyeing human.

On Transgender Day of Visibility, we celebrate Minnesota’s transgender community and recommit to standing up for our neighbors in the face of hatred.

As your Governor, I’m proud to stand in this fight with you.

Extract 6/18
A Herring Gull stomps its feet rapidly on a grassy verge, eyes trained on the soil. The translated mutter: “Haha. Stupid worms. Think it’s raining.”

Not in the mood for my foolishness today, never mind the date
A closeup picture of a handsome brown tabby cat, lying on a desk, looking fed up. He’s staring into the camera, one fat polydactyl paw tucked into his chest and the other flat down in front of him. One ear is forward, the other back. #CatsOfBlueSky

One of my favorite things about cats is when they smell something intriguing and they do the open mouth face 😺

Cat playground going up! #catsofbluesky
A cat sits on the top rung of a ladder and looks at human! A handsome tuxedo cat lays casually in a wooden box attached to the wall.

PLEASE BE AWARE there is a spill of unknown origin or composition in the fridge region. Travelers are urged to use caution.
Photo of my fluffy white cat Francie lying flat on her side on fake wood flooring. There are teeny orange safety cones on either side of her.

Just saw a bull in a china shop. He was actually quite considerate and spatially aware

I love my Miso #catsofbluesky
A siamese cat laying against the wall like a human A siamese cat tucked into a pink heart blanket and looking at the camera A siamese cat stretched out on the floor. The brown line going across her whole underside (the long way) is visible. A polydactyl Siamese cat has her paw on her human’s arm and is looking out the window.
