My parents are so proud

...I quit Perez Hilton and Farmville.  Cold turkey.

Just thought you should know.

Cat Update

Last time we checked in on the cat, she was just recovering from tape worms and had yet to go to the dentist.  That seems like ages ago. 

Since then, she's visited the dentist and instead of cleaning her teeth, they had to extract them.  All.  Except two.



See?  No teef.  She had a condition called stomatitis, which, from what I understand, is a bacterial infection resulting from an allergy to plaque.  She had no roots left on most of her teeth and apparently had ulcers running along her tongue, her cheeks and down her throat.  Not good.  The other two teeth will likely have to go at some point too. 



It was heartbreaking to have them deliver that news, but it was clearly the right thing to do.  Since then, she's obviously felt a lot better; she's a different cat entirely.  She's hunts our toes, chases the laser pointer and is generally in everyone's business at all times.  She's put on some much needed weight too.



She's had a hard time adjusting to the time change and is just now starting to let us sleep in until a whopping 6:00 am.  Ugh.





But all in all, she's adjusted to her new home very well and it feels like she's always been here.

Pillow Lust



I love this bookcase that Jamie of I Suwannee posted awhile ago, but the pillow really caught my eye.  I think it's this pillow from Jonathan Adler and I think I need it in my life.  Christmas is coming!
