Finally getting around to reading _A Sicilian Romance_ this spooky season (Fudge is somewhere between unimpressed and reproachful)

Not quite floor to ceiling, but I inherited these from my parents; apparently, when I was a baby, they divided my dad's office from my bedroom.

Am I reading the news or working on my article? Are they commiserating or helping or do they want a snack?

For a little timeline cleanse, enjoy my perpetual kitten Gus sucking on his little stuffed sloth

For a little timeline cleanse, enjoy Gus making one of the most bananas decisions I have ever seen and then going OH SHIT and running away

Just hanging around mis-doing gender (me) and being a cat (Fudge).

I am a Jew who doesn't do any Christmas stuff but I do get in the festive spirit when Revolution Brewing comes out with their yearly "Fistmas" holiday beer.
