So glad I worked from home today. This guy's been hanging outside my window most of the morning. All that grazing and pooping must've been exhausting.

It's a good thing we bought a king-sized bed so that these two bed hogs can use up every square inch of it.

All other USDM Miatas came with fixed headrest seats like these. However, adjustable headrest seats were offered in some other parts of the world, such as the UK.

This UKDM seat swap is a subtle mod that also resets the clock on the inevitable driver-side bolster wear.

1999 Mazda Miata 10th Anniversary Edition UKDM seats in my USDM 10th Anniversary Edition (#5754 of 7500). In the US, adjustable headrests were only offered in the 1994 M Edition.

Naughty girl had to show me what she was up to. That's the handle from a plastic tote that she chewed off.

Vinny repositioned, so I had to get a shot of his sweet, sleepy face.

I doubt any of my current Bluesky connections are going to care, but I really miss the company that used to sell these one-piece clutch lines for Miatas. These are my favorite Miata upgrade by far. This was just one of so many other cool products that they used to make and sell. Miss you @garagestar

We adopted Vinny from Cowlitz County, WA animal control. I love him to pieces 💚
