Today was a most excellent day. So excellent, in fact, I can’t possibly fit all that excellence into one blog post, so Part II will be published tomorrow.
PART I
I went downtown and discovered a new street art installation by Maks on Slater Street just a few steps east of Bank Street. And if that […]

Watcha doin’ ?
Making tea?
I’ll just wait here while it steeps a bit.
Mmmmm, yummy.
(This morning he actually got in the shower with me; unfortunately, like most people, I take my camera into the bath but not into the shower.)

So. I see reverse psychology does not work on Old Man Winter as well as it does on cats. I figured if I pretended to like him, he would back off and play hard to get. Ha. Forty-five Fifty-six centimeters later, I concede defeat: I am no match for the wily ways of Winter.
Yesterday’s […]

A week or so ago Susanna suggested in the comments that Duncan might be an orange Norwegian Forest Cat. I’d never heard of the breed, but I liked how exotic it sounded. I searched for images and concluded that oh yes, Duncan comes from a long line of Norwegian Forest Cats. These are not dainty […]

Okay, so I mentioned in passing that Duncan was a bad cat, and it seems to have piqued the interest of a number of readers. Judging by the comments and emails, “Duncan was bad last night” is the most intriguing thing I’ve said in a long time.
So. What did Duncan do?
Well. As you know, Duncan […]

Last night I got together with a couple of other bloggers and we went down to Rasputin’s to catch local blogger Andrea Simms-Karp’s show. She was playing with her cousin, guitarist Brian Simms, and her friend all the way back to third grade, Shawna Caspi.
Andrea’s great – lots of stage presence and humour and […]

So this is how I spent my Valentines Day. I woke up with the same headache I’d had for the previous 36 hours, only worse. A full-body scan revealed that I was feeling lacklustre and lethargic. I emailed work that I wouldn’t be in, and went back to bed.
Eventually I got up and turned the […]

Things I learned today:
It is not easy for a cat to see a sweater being blocked without lying down on it, but it is possible.
Your brain can, without warning, temporarily flush all of its contents.
You will look like an idiot if this happens during a meeting.
The waiting time at the Passport Office is now under […]

Last night my son and I went out to celebrate some excellent news in his life. We met at the Carleton Tavern and then went to Absynthe’s for dinner.
While we were celebrating, the subject of cats came up. And while we were talking about cats, I happened to mention that Duncan licked my butt […]

I know some of you think I’m turning into a cat blogger, so I promise you this will be the last cat post this month. I swear. The cat is just a small part of my perfectly normal life, which is full of work and art and blogging and scrabble and knitting and chores and […]
