I Want to Go Home

I am in the office today. I want to go home. I would like to think that the cats are sitting by the windows, watching and waiting for me to come back. It won’t be for 5-6 hours, cats. I’ll get there as soon as I can though.

One Year

Today is Robin Sparkles the Cat’s first adoptiversary. One year ago today we met her for the first time at the MSPCA in Methuen, Massachusetts and we took her home with us. Her daughter, Lily Pad the Cat, was also adopted that day but she needed some medical work before we could take her home. We’re marking her adoptiversary as the day she came home for the first time. That is early next week. 

Robin’s name was Disco when she was at the shelter. Lily’s name was Boogie.

Officially On a Streak

When I finished playing guitar yesterday morning I had run out of tracks that needed to be recorded. Last night I started another re-recording song so that I could have something to work on today. Now here we are again with nothing ready to work on because for the third day in a row I played guitar!

I now have six quarantine tunes ready for vocals. That’s what I call a backlog. It’s going to take me a while to get through all of that. I have one more song on my list for this round of re-recordings. I had two but I decided to drop one of them. If I can prep that one with bass and drum MIDI tracks today then I’ll have something to do tomorrow morning. Then we start doing car music on Tuesday? We’ll see how it shakes out.

Forgot This One

I took this picture just before we went to bed for the night last night. I forgot to post it but thought it was worthy because Robin Sparkles is adorable and this (and all) blogs need to have a healthy dose of adorable.

Guess What I Did Not Do

Want to take a guess as to what I did not do this morning before work? Also, what I didn’t do at all over the weekend or during last week?

Go on and take a guess. I bet you’ll never get it right. I won’t be able to do anything about it for the next two days either, but I bet you still can’t guess.

It’s a super secret. No one will ever know.

(insert frustrated sigh of failure to play any guitar or work on any music projects or ideas here)

Cats

Your daily dose of cats.

Robin watched Deep Space Nine with me and she seemed to enjoy it even though it was one of those stupid section 31 episodes. Puh-leeeeze.

A short time later the cats rough housed a little, as they often do. No hissing this time and that is nice of them.

And there you go, folks. Your daily dose of cats.
