Lord of the Flies




Apart from companionship and destroying some of my property, my cat (named Baby) is becoming quite adept at killing flies.

I find this very amusing as oftentimes I won't actually see or know the fly is even there and she come in or leave a room at full speed leaping at what appears to be nothing.

So, since I hadn't made good on my promise to present photos of Baby: Destroyer of Insects, I will do so now.

The first photo is of her enjoying her spoils, in a carnivorous way. The second photo is of Baby playing with her soon to be meal.

Always Welcome

Hello all (three of you)

First off, I think I'm going to try posting the url of this blog on facebook again, and anyone who does read this, feel free to let our other friends and/or family members be aware of this blog. I still think this would be more interesting to read had I came up with the idea to do this when I first came down here and not like 10 months after the fact.

That said, ahem, I'm happy and fortunate to be hosting my parents for a weekend in mid-August (for everyone's sake, I'm not inserting the "JAWS" quote here). This reminds me that I want to let everyone know I'm always happy to host people for the weekend. There's quite a bit to do down here and I figured it would be easier to do something while it was still the summer, though we are all mostly working and not too many of us are in school anymore (which for some reason depresses me.)

My next venture up to MA is TBD/TBA.

Peace out yo

How time flies

While talking to Dawn last night, I remarked how quickly the year had been going as its July already. Then came even a more startling revelation, its already been nearly a year since I got the new job and moved to the Garden State.

I moved in late August (maybe the 30ish-th?) and started work on Sept. 2. It really doesn't feel like I've been here a year, six months yeah, maybe, but definitely not a year.

Oh and for those 2 or 3 people who actually read this (all likely from MA) I am hoping to make an appearance during the weekend of Jul. 10 - 12.

Seating is limited, please reserve your space/time with James now :)
