good cat


joel didn't believe me when i said irobot made a gutter cleaner. then he comes back with this. i may want that more than the squeegee bot. i could talk to my dogcats from work. or manage the cats when they're on autopilot while i'm on a weekender.

santa, that's what i want for xmas.

cecropia



i saw one of these on the weekend dying on the sidewalk outside tomlinson's pet store. today i got a newsletter from the ladybird johnson wildflower center describing that very moth.

no wonder i saw it dying: it only lives 10 days in its adult phase.
