i had a bad cat-related dream last night. well, it started out fine, oddly enough, with us hanging out at my mother's house, with the whole family plus ben affleck and matt damon (i have no idea), possibly watching tv after thanksgiving dinner. af...

happy halloween

smudge is so photogenic

2009-10-19T01:50:46Z

i was spinning him around in jeff's chair, and trying to get pictures of what he looks like when the chair stops spinning. most of the time, he sees me pick up the camera and this is what i get: i did manage to get one quick shot. you can almost ...

alley-oop
