Yet another promise

Some time ago I made an apology (for being lame) and a promise (for more regular posts). Yet alas, I let it slip yet again. What can I say? Life has a way of throwing curve balls and the best intentions remain just that. What curve balls, you ask? It has been three things really: The specter of a new job, working 16+ hours a day at the old one, and one big ass rock when you least expect it.
One of the most amazing human beings I've ever known, Duncan Ferguson (not the UK soccer player), once told me, "All we are in this world is how we adapt to change. It's all we are." Indeed.
One thing, however, that hasn't changed is Hunter and Pika. For sure, they have a few new "diggers" and experiences over the summer but their spot in my life (and others) remains. Sorry friends for not updating you more. Rest assured, they are as vibrant and an important part of my life as ever. Please forgive me. Pika is still waking me up right around 4:30 a.m. every single morning. Hunter is still a softie "love-bug" looking for attention every time I go into the bathroom or sitting at my desk (my keyboard is virtually freezed-up with cat hair). As promised, here is another of their favorite "nesting" spots.


I have a drawer in my closet the holds socks, sweaters and whatever. Some time ago I pulled out a drawer to find something and I left it on the floor in the closet (it's mostly empty really). When I went back to put the drawer back, I found Pika cuddled up in the socks. I didn't have the heart to move it. It's been there ever since. When I'm looking for Pika and can't find him anywhere, I'm 98% certain he'll be in the closet.
