The cats still love to snuggle and nap on the Poang. As usually, Barley uses fatty Champ for a pillow.

If cats could talk….
…they wouldn’t.

Champ wasn’t amused when I invaded her peace and quiet in the bedroom to take a picture. But how sweet is she? She’s slowly recovering from her fall a week ago. I think the most noticeable difference between before her fall and now is that Barley is more desperate for our attention because he doesn’t have Champ to chase and play with right now.
Slightly unrelated: I’m on vacation! Sorta kinda…I need to log on for a few hours tomorrow afternoon to tie up a few loose ends, but at least I can do that from home. My plans for vacation: hang shelves and artwork, edit overdue photos, cheer on the 3 Day walkers, get a haircut, read, squeeze in as much yoga as possible…and then head to DC/NoVA to throw a baby shower for my sister and visit with friends and their new baby. I’m very excited.
Totally unrelated: I was playing with the layout here last week and I still haven’t quite worked out the picture situation. Bear with me, it’s on my list of things to sort out while on vacation!

Two year foundiversary
Two years! It’s been two years since we found Champ in a car engine. I had begged Pete to get a second cat for a long time (for the record, this second cat was supposed to be orange, and preferably a Maine Coon because I also wanted it to be a big fat cat), and he was completely resistant to it. But how do you resist a teeny 1-pound-soaking-wet kitten who hisses at anything that makes eye contact?! I don’t think we ever realized how much we would love having another cat, even if she is overly skittish and constantly hiding under the bed.
Here she is one year ago, and when we found her two years ago.

A List: Things To Do This Summer
I realize it’s a little late to be starting this list, but better late than never, right?!
1. Lunchtime croquet with co-workers on the Greenway Attempted Friday, September 10th to no avail – there were games, but no croquet.
2. Buy a bike. And ride it.
3. Watch a Movie by Moonlight at the Boston Harbor Hotel (link opens PDF)* You know what ruined this? Hurricane Earl!
4. Hike a new-to-me Boston Harbor Island* completed Saturday, July 3rd
5. Kayak on the Charles
6. Shakespeare on the Common* completed Saturday, August 7th
7. Celebrate a feast in the North End
8. See at least one Free Friday Flick at the Hatch Shell (link opens PDF)*
9. Attend the Forest Hills Lantern Festival** This was overruled by our friend Karl’s gallery opening.
*Will involve a picnic lunch/dinner
**Will involve dinner at Bella Luna
Doesn’t it feel like I should have an even 10? I couldn’t come up with one. If I do, I’ll let you know. In the meantime, what’s on your “To Do This Summer” list?!
