Something for Thursday (Mozart’s 256th edition)

Two Doggos and a Cat
For lack of anything else to post today, here is Cane awaiting his breakfast: Here’s a diptych of Carla sleeping: Here’s Rosa, in a box: And finally, here’s Remy being a dick to Rosa because she’s on the heat vent … Continue reading
Tone Poem Tuesday

Shiny!

I haven’t written about football in this space (well, not this space, but you know what I mean) in years. I stopped watching football regularly more than ten years ago, and now I only watch if I happen to be someplace … Continue reading →
