A few things that I noticed while reading this thread.
First of all, kitties rock.
Here is a picture of Milan, my blue-and-white folded-ear boy (he and his brother are Scottish Folds -- fuck you, Ray). Here is
another picture of Milan and Lennybruce (black-and-white)I will have to get mine one of those kitty hammock things.
PST, where did you get your avatar? The picture of the guy makes me laugh maniacally. He looks a lot like an old professor of mine from college.
And Va, your baby is super-cute.

It makes me sad that I can't have any kiddos. I have hell of depression and the odds of me going off my medication long enough to have a child are about ten million to one. Well, first I would have to be married and stuff (there are lots of successful single parents out there, but I would not be one of them), and getting all those planets in alignment would take a
god damned miracle. Oh well...I'm sure that my sisters will have children, and I can be their crazy auntie who buys my nieces and nephews lots of books and chemistry sets and stuff. So yeah, kudos on the adorable child.
