We could float among the stars together
I recieved the nicest, most romantic gift yesterday. A big ol' bag of compost and manure. Someone knows me, that's for sure.
I am planning the garden and planting, I am doing a combination of fragrant lavenders mixed with purple and white flowers. I just want to be certain that even from the street people can identify my house as that of a homo.
Heroes was on again last night, after an annoying hiatus. I remember when shows ran through the entire season, the there was summer and reruns. Those were the days, Love Boat, Mork & Mindy, Dynasty...tv was special then.
I continue to fall in love with the puppy. She is so dear, and smart!

there's no people like show people
Another beautiful day and the first day that the dogwalker is responsible to getting butters out, fed and walked.
So, of course, I am a nervous wreck.
It is wonderful having a dog in the house. The cats continue to taunt and tease her, They are getting a little closer which is cool. It is very funny to watch them get used to each other. It is going to be a glorious weekend here in Minneapolis, sunny and in the 70's. This is when we forget January and February.
My dear friend Brian's mother had a stroke. If praying is your thing, please say some prayers for her. She is a very sweet lady, was always great to Brian and all of his gay boy friend, different of course from his gay boyfriends. Hopefully she is comfortable and will remain comfortable and peaceful whatever is in front of her.
Going to a movie tonight, no idea what, any suggestions?

Break out the Bombazine
The stars in heaven are burning a little brighter today. Miss Kitty Carlisle Hart passed away. A wonderful performer and wife to Moss Hart, she will be mourned by queens and elderly women around the globe. I am certain that Moss and Cole Porter greeted her at the pearly gates.
The puppy is very willful, the cats are starting to adjust, with great reluctance. All will be good.
The weather is finally turning nice here, time to take the shorts out of mothballs. Doe anyone ever use mothballs?

Trying the waters
I have been too busy with work to sit down and blog for a few months now. I am not even sure if anyone still checks this, but since I started doing this for myself anyway...
So I am on the brink of adopting the above pictured doggie. A rescued lab/spaniel mix, I immediately fell in love with her. They are currently calling her Kiera, but her name would be Butters, because she is the color of butter and makes me melt. Her nickname would be Patty ( get it...patty...pat..pat of butter)
Life over he past couple of months has been crazy, work has had me travelling around the country, fun but but wears you out after a while. Mom had an accident at home that caused a broken leg, followed by a short hospital and nursing home stay before returning home. Dad really struggled with being alone, the first time i his entire life he has lived alone, so he is delighted to have Mom home.
I was in LA recently and aside from hanging out with some friends I love, I was able to meet a new friend. Julie's baby Evelyn was born in Feb and she loved kickin' it with her Uncle Jim. Babies rock, although Butters is pretty darned close.
I am planning on posting a little more often, so Don can keep updated on my life, but we all know how plans change.
