More Delays! But the End is Near

May 14, 2015 by wonderpens 4 Comments

On one of our last days on the west end, I walked past a four or five year old kid, sitting dejectedly on his scooter, missing one shoe. He was looking up at his dad, who was maybe 10 meters away on the sidewalk, and this kid was saying, “We’re never, ever, ever going to get there.” … [Read more…]

Moving Round 1

May 4, 2015 by wonderpens 6 Comments

We’re full in the midst of chaos and which-box-did-you-put-this-in and eating take-out until our stomachs are full of ulcers, or maybe that’s from the stress. With the apartment renovations (mostly) finished, we’ve moved our home into the back of the new space. The shop is still open, and we’re going to be closing that next … [Read more…]

I always thought I was a dog person until we got Chicken, our shop cat. He is everything a cat is known for: by turns aloof, affectionate, unimpressed, playful, willfully ill behaved, sweet, demanding, obnoxious, hungry, picky, and completely unknowable. He has been disdainfully educating me on what it means to be a cat person, harasses the dog regularly, and remains the most popular member of our shop team.

Cat lovers rejoice: with me, you can now ponder all of life’s mysteries and questions with feline advice. from a tarot deck of the ultimate in cat characters. Who else could truly understand and direct a cat person’s life but a cat?
