Tabs turns up his purr-minator machine to warp factor 12 around Valentine’s Day, like his body, which is normally fueled by gravy and love, needs even more pets than usual. I swear, he would spend the entire day on my lap if he could. Sometimes he’s so insistent for lap time that he’ll sit right on my elbow, as close as possible, and stare at my lap like an Olympic figure skater about to take the ice, like he’s been preparing for this moment his entire life. He doesn’t just like lap time. He NEEDS it, and I feel bad...

Happy Caturday, my friend! One of the perks of adulting 24/7 is that you can actively pursue unapproved, unsanctioned frivolous endeavors, like buying yourself an advent calendar from Trader Joe’s and opening everything at once WEEKS before the actual holiday officially starts! Having the freedom to do things like this almost — almost — makes up for having to deal with people stealing your parking spot. Or, for having to pay the bills. Forever. (Kinda sorta. Not really.) Quick TJ’s advent calendar update I’ve been using a few of the things from my new 12 Days of Beauty Calendar this...

Oh, man! Fall was my former employer’s favorite time of year. It meant the purr-fect combo of comfy temps and low humidity for fabulous fur. In fact, he did all his best fur work in fall. Best kitty modeling fur campaigns, that’s for sure. He loved fall fashion, too. Chunky scarves, boots with the fur (faux fur, of course), and he also had a thing for down vests and cozy ties.

It isn’t a coral or brown. It’s just really, really, really red. MAC Fashion Legacy Retro Matte Liquid Lipcolour ($21, and one of 28 shades) is that kind of red. The Retro Matte Liquid...

The Coywolf turned three on Saturday, and I’m still processing the fact that she’s a full-on toddler. Mind you, I know she’s technically been a toddler for a while, but El Hub and I still call her “Babytime” because… Well, no reason. That’s just what we do. I was looking at old pictures of her this morning, and every single year those chubby little cheeks and baby features seem to get further and further away… It’s a joy to watch children get older, but every birthday breaks my heart a little because the older and bigger she gets, the closer...
