Our cat, Freya, just had kittens.  Again.  Another litter of four, but this time one didn't make it, as neither Heidi nor I were there to save the runt.
See, she didn't use the little box/towel bed I'd made up for the occasion, this time.  No, she found a secluded, invisible corner of Tyrion's closet, and gave birth while the rest of us were ( Read more... )

Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day i'm loving you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time

Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Happy 21st Birthday, tyalangan !!!

May you be showered with alcohol and happiness, now and forever.  So be it.  ;-)

I just watched Tim Burton's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and I loved it. Cute, creepy, funny, and a little bit psychotic - just the way I like 'em!

I'm giving a presentation for the Hillsdale Liberals this week, in which I get to rail against the Drug War. I'm geeked for that, though I'm totally unprepared. I'll have to do some research ( Read more... )

Thanks in no small part to Heidi, I now have a new car, which I can actually afford (sort of), and I never have to see le Piece e Shit Explorer again.  I got a 2004 Dodge Stratus, a nice, stylish, reliable, eminently driveable, gas-saving machine, for far less than the salesman wanted me to buy it for.  I just sat back and played along, as Heidi ( Read more... )

Do I look the same to you? 'Cause I don't feel so.
You know everything must change as time goes by.
Though it feels like yesterday when we first met.
I feel I'm sinking deeper.

Do you look the same to me? Well, I don't think so.
You know everything must change as time goes by.
Like the flowers that dry, locking inside
forever their beauty.

And they said ( Read more... )

tyalangan just had another article published on SOLO.  Congrats, honey!

We had two pet cats, a pet rat, some random mice, and a family of birds living in the basement.  The first cat, Freya, got rid of the mice in a week; good girl.  The birds appear to have left on their own.  The second cat is relatively new to the house and as yet unnamed.  And Freya just had kittens.  Four impossibly adorable little blind furballs ( Read more... )

Tyrion and I travelled to Chicago this past weekend, and I left him with my parents in Oak Park while I went down to the Enrights' to give an NIF presentation on applying axiology (value theory - ethics and aesthetics) to artistic nudity and erotic art.  Yes, with examples.

Here is a rough outline of my presentation:  The Morality of Beauty: ( Read more... )
