Oh Poor Hot Kitties

Sye finds the tile in the bathroom so refreshing.
Kitties have been striking interesting poses b/c of the near 90 degree heat here. Poor kitties. Poor Elise writing in the heat; my favorite cafe doesn't even have air conditioning.
Here are two more Dido pictures that are really cute......they both are in places that would make her hotter though....

Dido seems to think my laptop is the perfect size and shape for a cat seat. Thanks a lot Dido. Well, maybe I shouldn't have left it on the floor.

Clay's Birthday (and Labor Day)

So we had drinks on the stoop for Clay's birthday (which also happened to be Labor Day.)
Cecil, Laura, our neighbors and the owners of the kegorator,
and Jeremy, their friend and another brewer at Stone.
Clay with Christine and Jim, our neighbors here.
Christine, Jim, Cecil (petting Mr. Biggs the terrier) and Jeremy.
You can see Clay's exciting birthday salads with his birthday candle in it. Don't look at it that way. It is not my fault that he doesn't like cake!
Later when I took a nap Clay went out and bought some cow and bbq-ed it. Sneaky bastard.
