“So Pyro,” you may be thinking. “What happened with that whole wedding thing you mentioned?”
Oh that wedding? It happened. I am now happily married to SD (aka Matthew) and we’re living life much as we did before. Well with a slightly fuller kitchen. Lots of wedding gifts were things to take up space on the counter I don’t have. It’ll be so nice when we get that house in Blacksburg.
Which brings up that point, if you haven’t heard it yet, that we are planning on buying a house and moving back to Blacksburg, Virginia (You know, where VA Tech is?) sometime at the beginning of next year. That is of course assuming finances stay as they are and job things…but still, it’s “The Plan”(tm).
There’s also the cat. Nickel, whose picture you saw a while ago when he would still run from us every chance he got. He’s quite the opposite now. He has attached himself to us, and is quite the lap cat. He’s very curious and gets into *everything*. Anything that isn’t nailed down has been knocked over or around, often multiple times. I always thought of cats as more mellow than dogs, but on the contrary, they’re more effort. You might not have to clean up their bodily functions as often as with a puppy, but you’re cleaning up everything else. I may have to take more drastic action soon to keep my plants and anime figures out of reach, and to keep things from falling over when he jumps on them with more weight. Sounds like a mission for tomorrow.
And things should be picking up again soon in Shifting Winds. I’ll be working on that tomorrow as well.
