• Blaring phones and Two Year Old Cats – Thoughts from July 24 and 25, 2023

  

  July 24, 2023 I went into a break room to have my lunch and there was only one other person in there. The volume on her phone was blaring. I stood it as long as I could and asked her to turn it down. She was immediately rude and asked me why she should turn…

• Never Seeing Quest Again – Thoughts from July 18, 2023

  

  I just got a call at work from Patti about Quest. Quest was in our bedroom on the floor, and she couldn’t lift her head. Patti’s sister came over and they are going to take Quest to the vet. Patti and I dealt with this situation before. Sister (the cat) had the same thing happen…

• Thinking About Quest – Thoughts from July 16, 2023

  

  I’ve become the guy who brings down the room by talking about Quest going blind. I can’t really talk about anything else because it’s the only thing on my mind. She just turned thirteen years old and I don’t know if she’s going to make it to fourteen. I tell people her age and they…

• Pooping Cat – Thoughts from March 13 and 20, 2022

  

  March 13, 2022 Today, I have an adorable story about Beatrix. She is the smallest of Scout’s kittens even though they’re not kittens anymore. I was on the toilet and she was in front of me in one of the litter boxes. She was facing away from me and scratching out a good spot to…

• Pooping on the Super Bowl – Thoughts from February 12 and 13, 2022

  

  February 12, 2022 Well, it’s been a while since I wrote about my thoughts from life. I have been listening to my old Thoughts papers starting as early as 1991. What the hell! To say it’s weird does not encompass how weird I’ve been throughout my life. So many ups and sooooooooo many downs. It’s…

• Three Girl Cats Named Slash, Blaze, and Quest – Thoughts about June 3, 2009

  

  (Future note: The following was written around May 2010, but June 3, 2009, is more relevant to what I’m talking about. This is the day Slash, Blaze, and Quest were born. As I mentioned in another Thoughts paper, Quest is still with us, along with four newcomers. Who are these people that came to live…

• Drunk and Missing the Cat Sister – Thoughts from May 16, 2008

  

  Know that I’m drunk right now, so what I say is from the mind of a drunken person. Have I mentioned that I’m drunk right now? I’m working at Disney these days. I’m a lead. On Friday and Saturday, I’m the lead most of the time. We have several people who started with me as…
