Bella left us a month ago after making it to 18 years old, almost a year to the day after Michael.
Bella was getting old and creaky, but still had an appetite. Michael seemed fine, just stopped eating.
Bella was the queen. Michael was a sweetie.
Still miss them so much.
And now I'm crying again

Found this old magazine interview with Cocteau Twins, circa Blue Bell Knoll, by Paul Trynka. International Musician & Recording World Nov 88.
If anyone wants to know some of the tech they used, it's in there.

Re-reading Tainted Cup and noticed something interesting - I can't recall dawn ever 'falling' before, it's always risen.
Read this last night and still mulling it over.

Love this map by Jeffrey Linn, showing what the Seattle area would look like if/when the ice caps melt.

Looking at the list of outages in Seattle, I see a ton of 2-3 house 'bubbles' which I don't think I've ever seen before.

He does give them a nice shout-out.
![[GC] I read a lot! And a lot of different stuff at the same time. Just finished a Michael Connolly mystery. I am reading a bio of Sir Walter Raleigh, a book about WWII Luftwaffe fighter pilots, a Japanese juvenile light novel series, and a book about Nabakov’s Lolita. Next up is a book about Mary Magdalene. I would recommend Steven Erikson and Ian Esslemont.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:knztqhvyqa6k2vf5qwnryaej/bafkreih2e5dfgy6eemtjba6fwiwi2q22rfjl7nbvtowm4p7ctajtocsu3e@jpeg)

Sad news.
My sweet kitty Bella turned 18 last month, but had been getting slower and creakier, and losing weight no matter what she ate.
Tonight, found her on the floor unable to stand. Emergency vet said her kidneys were in very bad shape.
It was time.
I'll miss her so much.
