Today was my last day at my job, rather suddenly after a month+ of days that could have also been my last day. Really grateful we already had plans to be in nature this weekend

Now more than ever, I guess
A bitmoji of 2021-era Addie is shown blasting off like a rocket ship. She looks gleeful. The text around her says "YES, the fuel is pure spite"

I followed the Tree Law
A sidewalk cherry tree is shown in profile along a parking strip in Portland, OR. The tree has recently been pruned, and is a slightly unnatural shape. There is a taller clearance on the street side of the tree than the sidewalk side. In the background, the sun is setting.

He has (a shaggy undercut version of) my hair, of course
Jan Dolski is talking to the Refiner version of himself in the video game The Alters. He is choosing a conversation option that implies he's not surprised to learn an alternate version of him has had a same-sex love. Jan Refiner has one of those slightly shaggy hairstyles with a topknot that would have screamed "the bi one" if it wasn't already text

Our weekend, we've been reading in the shade all afternoon. Wonderful way to deal with hot temps if you've got them
A campsite is shown, with a portable canopy, chairs, cooler and tent visible. The campsite is speckled with shade and sunlight from trees overhead, and in the background a river is visible.

I love my Toasts
Two orange kittens are snoozing together on a teal Afghan. One kitten has his head tucked beneath the other kitten's chin.

They wrapped up their kitten shots today and were such brave little friends while we were at the vet. It's sweet how easily they co-regulate, with each other and humans alike

Corduroy Toast and I had a big day for bonding via lap snuggles, so it wasn't all bad
A sleepy orange kitten is sprawled on a pair of legs. The kitten looks extremely pleased with her circumstances

This is 12 year old me and I just caught myself radiating this body language during the intro preso. Oops

Wonderful last light vibes in Palos Verdes
The last remnants of daylight are shown over seaside cliffs. In the distant background, lights are shown on buildings. The remnants of storm clouds lurk low above the ocean water.

My cat Beth is the most wonderful creature. Today she climbed the tomato towers and got stuck, and loved every second of it.

Tonight in Toasts: wrestling in the shark bed
Two orange cats are snuggled together in a soft, covered cat bed adorned with felt teeth. The kittens look like they could be embracing, but they're more likely to be in the middle of wrestling.

The Toasts have taken over Beth's spot on the cat tree. Beth has thus far opted out of taking her revenge

Congrats to the Toast kittens for two weeks of integration in their new household! We were thrilled to watch them nap on the tree with Beth during Survivor tonight.
Three cats are snoozing on various levels of a grey cat tree. On the top of the tree, a fluffy tuxedo cat snoozes in loaf shape. On the second highest and third highest "stories" of the cat tree, two similar-looking orange kittens snooze away.

Today in Toasts: they hung out in the cat tree in our living room without the other cats getting too stressed; A+ work by all felines involved
Two orange kittens peer out from inside a grey cloth-covered cube, which is part of a cat tree. One kitten is lying down, staring out serenely. The other kitten is sitting up, and her eyes are big with the action going on behind the photographer.

This evening in Toasts: co-napping with Beth
Two orange kittens are sprawled out, sleepy, on a floral comforter. One of the orange kittens has his mouth slightly open in a meow. The other kitten is looking cutely at the camera.

Yesterday in Toasts: they can currently sneak into my jeans drawer from the back, and pulling the drawer out to confirm they're snoozing in there is always cute

Today in Toasts: my sink man
An orange kitten with golden eyes sits in a sink. The late afternoon light in the room is perfect on his fur.

These two slept next to me on my bed last night, an unexpected treat! Unfortunately my cat son has proven himself sexist and keeps forcing his sister to mother him (comfort nursing, here)
Two orange kittens are laying on a bed, sleepy. One of the orange kittens looks like he is nursing from the other kitten.

Monitoring the situation in her usual confident way, which also seems to be reassuring the more sensitive + overwhelmed Nyx
A fluffy tuxedo cat is shown from behind, sitting in "loaf position" with her tail tucked around her body. She is sitting in front of a closed sliding door, aware that there is activity going on inside the room beyond.

Today in kittens: left them alone long enough to find them sleepy, but of course that woke them up and now they're back to tearing around my bedroom
Two orange kittens are snuggled back-to back in a brown cat bed.
