So, y'all know I'm kind of on the obsessive side, right? I mean, generally speaking, I don't let my obsessions take control of my life (unless it's historically accurate gay porn, because, dude) but I think we can all agree that there are times when obsession can outrun reason -- at least that's my rationale as to why I have anywhere between 20 and ( Read more... )

I feel like I should make some sort of note or something about today. After all, it's the only time in my life where my age will be the same as my birthdate -- I'm 31 on the 31st, and the tiny superstitious part of me wants to make note of that fact ( Read more... )

So Zombie Cat is going to have surgery to remove the weird bald (possibly?) cancerous growth on his neck that he's had all his life. The vet thinks it's probably a low grade mast cell tumor, if it's a tumor at all (the biopsy done by my vet in Portland came back as positive for mast cell, but I'd swear that the lump occasionally shrinks).

So there've been a couple of posts I've been meaning to write lately -- one being on the nature and legacy of Sherlock Holmes (a post born out of finishing up Elementary and learning that Series 3 of Sherlock is, supposedly, going to start airing this fall) -- and the brain, it is not really wanting to write that post right now.
