Inky is back at his own house and his passport has been revoked. No more Outside Adventures ™️ for Inky (aka Mittens). 💜

I found his family!!! His name is Inky and he'll be going home this afternoon!

As this is the second time he's wandered off, I feel like maybe it's time he got a collar? Or became and indoor-only kitty?

Anyway, he was a lovely houseguest, but I'm happy he's going home.

Welp.

Someone is keeping a close eye on the situation*.

Well…things have escalated over here. Good thing I have an extra room, extra litter box, extra carrier, and just happened to have food Charlie turned his nose up at.

He is a sweetheart who loves belly rubs!

My friend is a vet so we’ll check him for a chip tomorrow. No sign of fleas. Phew!

Update to the update:

Why was I thinking up names for him on my way to work? 😭😭😭

He’s definitely someone’s pet. Really sweet!

Update:

I’m worried he was abandoned because he looks like he’s been fed, and he immediately tried to come inside, but he’s pretty dirty.

I’ll keep an eye out for him and see what happens in the next couple of days…

I think I have a 👻 🐈 . I heard meowing a couple of times outside, but couldn’t find the meower.

Then right after I got out of the shower, I heard scratching on the other side of the door. I thought it was Charlie, but when I opened the door, he wasn’t there. He was curled up on the couch.

"You voted for this!" FAFOism is a powerful force. Easy to get swept away in it. But the fact is that guys like this were lied to, and your anger is better spent on the liars than the lied to. We can welcome guys like this in. We need to build a better country, and we can't do it without them.
Q: You voted for President Trump in 2024. Do you regret that decision?

Yesterday I learned something that hurt: The parent company of Waze, my absolute favorite GPS ever, was a YUUUUGE contributor to T's campaign.

So I deleted it.

I mean, could they just, like, not though?

Think of how many problems would be solved if neither of them ever came back online, ya know?

Update to the update: When I lived in CA, there was a Japanese/Korean place that did Bento Boxes. I was there more than I care to admit.

There's a new Japanese/Korean place in town here that has Bento Boxes. Pork Katsu and Hibachi Scallops FTW!! So good!

Cat's off the hook.

Update: After discussing the possibility of learning to cook with the cat, I have ordered food. He will want me to share.
I need someone to just put food in front of me right now. Don't care what it is. I worked late, have a TON of schoolwork to do, and no discernable meals in the house or time & energy to cook anything.

I wish cats would cook.

I kind of forgot that you have to load each volunteer into MSP individually.

I know I'll be grateful when all of our ministries are on the same page, but if you're looking for me between now and Advent I, you know where to find me... 🤦‍♀️ ⚓

Update: It is 3:30 and I've just discovered that I haven't eaten lunch.

This self-care thing is going well, I'd say. 🤦‍♀️

Back at work after a week. My right lung still aches when I cough, yawn, or breathe too deeply. Trying not to think about it.

The news out of Charlotte, where my brother's family lives, is making my heart ache.

Just too much pain everywhere today. Too much.

Update: The cat has taken to his closet.
Oh good. The wind is back. 😐

@danijustmight.bsky.social @sophicthunder.bsky.social I watched it last night and please, please, please, please please live tweet it! (And yes, it was both cringy and funny, but I suspect the cringy parts were intentional.)

Why do Virginia Tech and Texas always have games at the same time?!? This is starting to feel personal.
