frikkin spring!

[thats a happy title btw.]

i remember trying to get a shot of one of these trees during work last year. 

close-up of almost carnation-like flowers.  turns out its more normal to whip out a camera on campus instead of a sort-of construction site.  i cant promise those will be the last flower pictures.  its spring damnit!  theres lots of pretty shit out there!

the kitters in his weird nesting phase

thats not frank.  its his doppelganger

cucumber and basil are go!

frikkin clouds that kept getting in the way of my sunbathing today. 

more flowers and a camocat

eventually we'll have to mow over these bitches but until then they are bright and sunny in our mostly dead yard

didnt even know i had white tulips

or variegated daffodils

tiger tulip.  not nearly as pushy as tiger mom.

someday i will have time to photoshop this.

double tulips and the few remaining daffodillys

random groundcover

i was closing the gate and heard a weird crunching noise.  its a stray kitters!  probably..pooping.  but its under the bushes so who cares.  atleast its not in the middle of the front yard.  i mean jeez.  have some shame kitties. 

whiteboard kitty story

long ago my sister and i did corny cat drawings

these were on whiteboard stickers outside my bathroom for over a year

i decided to make the stickers functional again... ish. 

cats and cookies

the new roof lineup-large calico, medium white and grey, the baby frank all grown up, and the baby bear cat.  hopefully the old bear cat and the other gigantor calico made it through the winter safely.  and this is a surprisingly decent picture for being taken through a nasty window and screen.

frank admiring the almost translucent window covering he so effectively tears to hell

evil eye.  ward that shit off.

semi-healthy molasses crackles

this batch of dough sat in the fridge for ..a day and half cos i was too lazy to finish after making the first 50 cookies.  unfortunately, extra gluten something something time fucked up the dough and instead of being deliciously dense and chewy..they were crunchy on the outside and just barely cooked on the inside.  and much less crackly.  but the good ones had already been in the freezer for.. a day and a half.  so no good pics.

just in case you wanted to know what frank would look like as a brunette.

nighttime happenings

gingy and baby frank hissing over food and perhaps keeping a wary eye out for the porch possum [illustration to come soon]

ice coated snow across the street

this is why i wake with cat hair in my eyes...

foggy misty night

frankencat

halp!  everything is upside-down!

why are cat paws so intriguing?  theyre so furry and leathery and skin-laceratingly-sharp all at the same time
