Sushi is such a sweet little dude - I take care of him sometimes when Sage is out of town, and he and his brother Oni are always so excited to see me when I'm there. I really hope he recovers from whatever's going on with him - kitty health issues are scary.

Still, I'm bummed that it's gone. I had fun playing it, and I liked the ability to play with others without needing to go find people like in Words with Friends or other similar games.
RIP, Word Hero. You'll definitely be missed.

I just finished Starter Villain, and now I'm really wondering what all our cats are plotting when we're not paying attention.

YESSSSS DATE BOTH OF THEM JOYCE
I was hoping this whole thing would go down the "maybe polyamory" route, because I love the whole Joe and Joyce thing but also love Joyce and Dorothy too and why not both?

Been spending lots of time with these cute goobers this week. They've settled in here pretty quickly, and it's so fun learning more about their individual kitty personalities.

Went to the animal shelter today thinking that Lucas and I would look at cats, though we weren't entirely planning on bringing any home... but then I fell in love with these two babies at the shelter, and now I have two cats again! Meet Moira (the black cat) and Will (the tabby cat)!

It doesn't make it any easier to be here without her.
She was my soul cat, and there'll never, ever be another cat like her. I am so lucky that I got to spend 10 of her 16 years with her.
Rest well, my Hannah girl. You were the bestest bitbit, and I'll miss you so damn much.

Just finished scanning a pile of old negatives my sister and I found while we were digging through stuff at our mom's house this past weekend. Going to share some of my favorite old photos over the next few days, but first, a shout-out to the little scanner that made it all possible.

Just got back from a 4-day conference in Denver - and before the conference I had to medicate Hannah for a claw bed infection. Two weeks of pills. It was rough. She hated it. 🥺
Poor girl is hiding from me - I bet she thinks I'm going to try to give her a pill. 😭

After a lot of Babylon 5, some Stardew Valley, and a nap with this lovely snuggly lady, I feel vaguely human again.

Did my responsible adulting for the day - now it's time for copious amounts of Babylon 5.

One of my favorite enjoyable distractions lately: watching Severance.
It's unsettling (but in a good way, if that makes any sense?) and I'm really enjoying it. I binged the heck out of the first season and a half - now I'm patiently waiting for the rest of season 2 to come out...

Took the day off today. I feel like I'm nearing burnout and need some time to rest and recharge.
Spent the morning snuggling with my buddy @hannah-bitbit.bsky.social, and the afternoon listening to The Delta Flyers while crocheting. It's helped me feel a little better.

Oh my goodness, Pumpkin looks and sounds almost EXACTLY like my old lady Hannah, right down to the "frickin' hates other animals" bit. If Vermont wasn't so far away and if I had a big enough house to separate Pumpkin and Hannah without too much nonsense, I'd adopt her in a heartbeat.

All is right with the world once more.
@hannah-bitbit.bsky.social found her way into my office this morning, and for the first time since moving here, she hopped up into my lap while I was sitting at my desk. ❤️
I missed my little furry supervisor. ❤️

One of the things that's been keeping me going lately (and encouraging me to take care of myself!) is Pokemon Sleep. It's a cute game, and it's encouraging me to work on going to bed at a decent time.
Here’s my Researcher ID, if you want to be friends on Pokémon Sleep:

Spent the evening watching Marvel's What If...? and really wishing we had some superheroes right now to knock some sense into the world, and to stand with us as they remind us to not give in.
...yeah, I sure could use Captain Carter and her strength right now.

Trying to get myself into work mode. Peggy tried to help, but she's more of a cute little orange distraction than anything. 😅

Cats are a good judge of character! If Hannah avoids someone, it's clearly a sign that I should avoid them too.

Hanging out with my buddy Peggy for a bit - she's staying here for a bit due to the furnace at Peter's house having some issues. It was a little too cold there for this 18-year-old girl, so I'm making sure she stays cozy.
