I was going through old photos and found a few I liked. I'm going to post them in a thread. All probably unrelated.
This is the first time I met Coco, an underweight/juvenile stray cat who came to live with us. He crawled straight into my lap. He's my best buddy now.

One time I went down to the city to see my shrink, and while I was there I found out my niece wasn't feeling well. Also I think it might have been close to her birthday. I bought her this huge teddy bear at CostCo. My sister dreads her children's birthdays because of me.
This is Coco, now fully grown. It's my favorite picture I have ever taken of him. He is a sinister fuzz-gremlin. I love him so much.
Coco needed a friend, so we adopted Kuro. From a shelter this time. This is maybe the worst picture I have ever taken of me, and the best picture I have ever taken of Kuro.
This is a doll/lamp we found at an auction. My daughter BEGGED for it. We brought it home and plugged it in. My partner noticed that it had real human hair. I said, "There is a zero percent chance that is not haunted." My daughter begged us to throw it away.
This is one of the only pictures of me I have ever liked. I could probably crop it and make a pretty good avatar.
My daughter looking out a hotel window at the Chicago skyline.
My partner passed out after a long day. I'm reading books with Ace. I look at these pictures and reflect that I have never in my life done anything to deserve the good fortune I enjoy.
Not sure exactly what I did to provoke that reaction from my partner, but presumably it was something I said. I provoke that reaction from a lot of people whenever I talk.
From the solar eclipse. I drove all morning to get my daughter to a part of my state that wasn't under cloud cover, so that she could see it unobstructed. Totally worth taking the day off work for.
Here we are looking like normal human beings.
This is my daughter. She's so tired she can barely eat ribs. But I assure you, she has the strength to never rest. So long as there are ribs to eat.
When we drove away from that restaurant, I found that she had rib bones in her pockets and was still chewing on them.

A collection of pictures from when we first moved into our new home. I love this place so much. It feels more like home than anywhere we've lived together before. It's a hard feeling to describe, the houses that you know are temporary and the ones that stick with you.
This is Daisy, our pet mantis from a few years ago. She is ending the earthly life of an unfortunate cricket. Daisy was a pretty decent pet. You didn't have to do much for her.
Picture from a great RV camping trip with the girls. Ace's hair is still purple. I dyed it a few days back before taking her to a Birthday Massacre concert. The occasional (closely-guarded!) age-inappropriate experience is good for kids, IMO.
This is just a really good picture of Ace & Coco.
That's probably enough, I'm tired. Peace, folks.
