It's hard to say goodbye


Our precious cat died this week. It was a medical condition. We had been helping Le Chat for awhile with his kidney problems by giving him daily subcutaneous injections of electrolyte fluids, but unfortunately his heart problems suddenly got worse and we were left with no choice.

We rescued Le Chat from a Montreal animal shelter three-and-a-half years ago. Everyday since his death, I've been recalling new memories. Le Chat was very friendly, and was only really happy when around human beings. He also seemed to have a sixth sense that could detect when you were not feeling well. This was an exceptional cat. He will be sorely missed.

New York in November


We had a great time in New York last week! We purposefully spent a lot of time in Brooklyn, baby! Here are some pics.

Philadelphia in November


We went on a trip to the City of Brotherly Love last week. It was my first time there. We also visited New York City. I'll upload those pictures in a bit. But first, take a trip with me to the Cradle of Liberty.

Holy Fucking Shit!

Here is reaction from the Driskill Hotel in Austin just moments after Barack Obama was declared the victor in the Presidential election. The Driskill was where Travis County Democrats traditionally hold their election night parties. It was insane!

Jack In The Box Breakfast Bowls

Breakfast bowls really seem to be catching on across America, ever since Jimmy Dean Breakfast Bowls rolled out in 2007. I might even be tempted to try this breakfast bowl and give you an honest review, if I hadn't caught a nasty case of food poisoning from this restaurant six months ago. Alas, it's probably for the best.

Individually wrapped hard-boiled eggs


Saw these at a gas station in San Antonio. Top awards for most hilarious travel snack! But it's also an interesting consumer trend. Some companies, like Eggland's Best and Born Free, will sell you entire bags of hard-boiled eggs. Because goodness knows, they're difficult enough to make.
