Lately, this blog seems to become a spot where I write about things happening to me that won't fit on Facebook and Twitter. But before Facebook and Twitter, this used to be just a place for me to put entertainment, social, spiritual and philosophical stuff that pique my interest. Email me at OlderMusicGeek(at)yahoo(dot)com.

MY LIFE: R.I.P, TO MY CAT
You drove me crazy sometimes. Getting in the garbage. eating the food my daughter left out and farting an awful storm. Meowing nonstop an hour before feeding time.
On the other hand, you were affectionate as all hell, nuzzling with us, rubbing up against us, purring louder than any other cat i've known. And when my daughter and I were sick or just sad, you were there keeping us company and watching over us until we were better.
You were loved and will be missed.
