a category for the uncategorical

I can't grow anything, let alone get a plant to actually bloom. Aren't you proud Andria? I am taking good care of your cactus.
Oh yeah, she's a hard rocker. During a rare but spectacular and laughter inducing fit last weekend she refused to apologize to me for yelling at me. Instead she began to sing a song she was composing impromptu. The song discussed the past and the present and the future and how we should leave our anger in the past. Deep.

He can be so tender sometimes. I truly do believe he will have a zoo someday. He loves animals so deeply, even the plastic variety.

No, I do not lock children in cages. This was all their doing, they were locking their babies in cages and pretending to be puppies, the plot of their game was a little muddled. We were celebrating my mom's birthday. (yes I am a schmuck for not writing her a wonderful blog which she totally deserves because she was the perfect mom for me). Happy belated birthday Mom. I love you very much.

I love this cat. He steals my jewelry, polly pockets, small stuffies... if he can carry it, he will steal it. He jumps up and hangs off of my hip, he tries to shower with me, he has begun shedding and he can clear a room if you know what I mean but he shows me that he loves me. Pets have a very special purpose here on Earth.
Well that is it. I had no way to relate any of this to anything. Maybe next week will make more sense.

Mel,
I am so proud of you! I think my cactus now belongs to you. I do want a start when I move! Did you kill the Jade? Please tell my shorties that I miss and love them.
Love,
Andris

No I did not kill the jade (yet). Wish me luck. You can have a start of both when you move. Nadia says she wished she could see you and she loves you. Aidan is in game mode so that means he can not talk right now. I love you!

Okay, that picture of the cactus is UNBELIEVABLY beautiful! Now you're a freakin' photographer! Wow!

If Aidan does choose a career involving animals, you will literally be able to say that you knew he would from BIRTH. He's always had such a soft spot for them.

Thanks for the night the other night. We had a great time!
