  1. My Cat Has Been Grounded

    As most of you probably know from past posts and stories, my cat Zeo notoriously dislikes being locked in for the night, and because I know he is not the sort to wonder off or stray from the house I have allowed him to stay outside all night in which he generally doesn't leave the backyard.

    You also probably know that raccoons are frequent visitors, and the cats and raccoons have always had a mutual understanding with each other. Being the cats are smart enough not to mess with the

    Fair enough. But Blue, how can you say you don't have friends? Surely everyone has friends. Eh. Well. Some detail on that goes as follows. When I was little I had friends, good friends.

  5. When Something So Cool Has to Go Wrong

    I get really annoyed when something I really like ends up doing something that pisses me off! Because than I have to have the debate with myself if I need to give it up no matter how cool it is, or continue to pursue it even if doing to than becomes at odds with my convictions and beliefs.
