Brevard Project 365 – Day 321

.. conversation today about this photo of a cat at the humane society in yesterday’s paper…

Girl (my mom): “Look at this cat. It looks a little uppidy. Doesn’t it look a little uppidy?”

Me: “Hmmmm?”

Girl:  “It shouldn’t look uppidy. It doesn’t even have a home.”

… ah, family…  :-)    Somebody please tell me if this sweet cat gets adopted.

I love these things about our newspaper…

… I love that our news cycle is such (very slow) that we only have enough news for two newspaper issues each week… and I love that I never get the Monday paper on Monday, it comes on Tuesday… and I love that the biggest headline story in today’s paper (I mean yesterday’s paper) is a big log jam on the French Broad River….   :-)

… Marlaine is in the hospital (who’s going to keep me organized now?)… and Brevard Animal Hospital called to say that Lucas’ ashes are ready to pick up (“Lucas is here for you to pick up” is what they said)… not sure *when* I’ll be ready to do that…  :-(   ….. definitely, definitely a Brazilian wedge day today…
