Patches loves to sleep on bags of all shapes and sizes. Backpacks, shopping bags, tote bags? All of them. Jen said Patches was snoring like crazy just before I came into the room. I think I woke her up. Sorry, cat.

Yet Another Cat Post
Super busy today. Haven’t had a chance to post anything. Here are cat pics to make up for lost time.


These might be my first pics in portrait mode from my iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Even More Cat!

Nothing but Cat
Black and White
In honor of the possibility of me putting a roll of black and white film into Dad’s camera tomorrow, here is a black and white photo of a black and white cat.
Pillow Cat Yet Again
Sorry, this is too adorable for me.

Photo a Day Thing
I took three pics around the house this morning because I couldn’t decide which one should be the official pic for today.
And the winner is that cat, because it’s always the cat.
No Trust
I tried to do the thing where you slow blink at the cat and if she slow blinks back it means she trusts you. She did not slow blink back. So I took her picture to shame her. Jerk.
I’ve Screwed Up This Post Twice Now
I wrote a post about Patches’ adoption anniversary, realized I screwed up the date and deleted it, then wrote a second post and published it, then realized I screwed up the date again and deleted the second post too.
Friggin’ Moron.
I thought today was the 12th anniversary of Patches coming home from the shelter with us. Then I thought yesterday was the 12th anniversary. Then I dug deeper into the blog’s history and found the 12th anniversary was two days ago.
What a friggin’ Moron.
Sorry again, cat. Happy belated (by two days) adoption anniversary.
Here’s the post that first mentions Patches, whose name was still Panache at that point.
Here’s the picture of Harry trying to coax Panache/Patches out from under the bed that made me think today was the anniversary but it must have been uploaded to Flickr on the 19th and it’s showing in the Camera Roll for that date instead of the day it was taken which would have been the 17th and I am such a pathetic Moron.
Photo a Day
Still planning to go with black and white once the film comes back into play. A couple of weeks, I think. Be prepared. I’m going to use Dad’s camera with his zoom lens to start with. I took a few shots with that lens before, but they were all on rolls that either jammed and got exposed when I had to open the back of the camera to fix the jam, or they were on the roll that broke. I’m also planning on getting (or trying to get) an adapter so that I can use Dad’s 50mm prime lens on my ebay Nikon. We’ll see.
