Recent laziness at the Cat Ranch:

Flour Buddies

Ansel, making friends with starches.

Baby, chilling out.

Nap time with the THA (please note, the lump to the left hand side is the THA)

Clockwise, from the top: Nico, Schaeffer, Spike and Benny.

Been a while

I’ve taken a rather impromptu hiatus from blogging, recently.  Nothing that earth-shattering has occurred, and I haven’t felt like writing about all the non-earth-shattering stuff.  I can assure all of you that I am fine, the Cat Ranch and all of its inhabitants are fine, the THA is fine and I am still gainfully employed.

Some recent highlights:

  • The THA and I have decided to live in sin on a more full time basis.  This will come as a great shock to some of you, I’m sure, but be advised that appropriate counsel was sought and neither of us are presently in need of involuntary commitment or heavy sedation.
  • I am now the proud owner of GTA: IV, and in a grand show of my ineptitude using a 360 controller, promptly ran into a cop the first time while accelerating a car.  This was after five minutes spent trying to figure out how to make the car accelerate.  Buddy John was on hand for this first go-round and had a grand time observing my great incompetence.  My greatest desire for that first time was to blow up a gas station with some of Buddy John’s grenades.  The only problem being, Buddy John didn’t know how to THROW them, so I was left dropping a grenade on the ground and running away.  That didn’t work as well as one might think.
  • The Cat Ranch recently had the Cat Whisperer (an actual Animal Behavior Consultant) do an in-home visit to assess some feline unhappiness at the Ranch.  He and I were both skeptical of positive results from the sheer complexity of the situation, but I am THRILLED to report his suggestions are working and there is a greater harmony to my fuzzy brood.
