Your husband and kitty are cute! The 1000 random cards game is funny, too. - keisha, Thu, 18 Jul 2002 8:43AM
1 (ignore me, for I am the background)
2 This was the first I ever saw of Eric- he sent me this after responding to my online personal ad. "I'd have written..." View Comments...
3 Here's the most current picture I have of him, out at a park near where we live. He still wears glasses, but not when hiking. Oh, and note the cool camo kilt!
4 The 2 top men in my life. I knew it was meant to be when Eric was able to pick up #1 cat Bolt, who usually freaks when anyone tries to pick him up.
5 #2 cat, Bowie, doing the pirate thing.
6 Bolt, in loaf position. He passed away at age 17.
7 A more recent picture of Bolt. He just got out of surgery so he looks a little groggy. He has his summer 'do here, which looks silly but makes him much more comfy in the Texas heat. He likes to camp out on the Moon on my comforter.
8 Bowie. That cat has no neck!!
9 Bowie and cat #3, who was officially named Caitlin but we changed it to Maya. She loves Bowie and follows him around.
10 My old motorcycle, a 1500cc Goldwing. I've since sold it.
11 Our house. If I had a bunch of money, I'd change the peach trim to something more... well, blue. But I love it anyway. As it turns out, we've since gotten new siding and went with green- figured it would match the outside better than blue. "Very pretty!" View Comments...
12 The house from a different angle, with Eric's penis car (Acura) in the driveway.
13 A shot of the deck in the back, and the roof. Not an otherwise interesting shot, but I climb on that roof often to look at the sky. With the siding re-done, that deck roof's gone now.
14 The deck from the back door. That's an above-ground pool, covered for the winter.
15 Another angle of the deck. Note the hot tub! That was one of the selling points for us when we were looking for a house.
16 Looking down from the upstairs into the living room. We've since lost the curtains, painted the walls, and replaced the carpet with stained concrete.
17 The kitchen, with friend Bob. The linoleum's also been replaced with stained concrete. The house came with all appliances, which was nice- we only had to replace the stove so far, which is a slightly different shade of off-white than the fridge. Apparently off-whites change with fashion. @@
18 My altar room upstairs.
19 Looking up at the second floor from the living room. The tapestry thing has been replaced by my wedding kimono and the walls are a cobalt blue.
20 The 'breakfast nook' which is my computer room. Note all the blue crap... friend Gordon holds a plastic wine glass of Guinness.
21 Friend Bob spinning fire. He's cool and insane!
22 Friends Colin and wife Bean out with Eric shooting stuff.
23 Brother (the guy in the black shirt who is named Rick but I call him Bro) and former boyfriend Tom.
24 Friends Cathy and Dave at their wedding, at which I officiated! Which was only fair since Cathy officiated at our wedding.
25 Friend Kit showing off a toy on his webcam. He used to be one of our camping buddies.
26 My mom! She passed away in 2007.
27 My dad, at his place in Paris TX. We get along, but he and Bro didn't speak for a long time due to Bro's choice of partners. Note the gay pride shirt I'm wearing, though neither of us mentioned it.
28 One of my elders, though she's not a lot older that I am. Her name is Ellen, and she has a cat on her head. She apparently always has pictures taken of her with cats on her head.
29 Another elder- Hersh, owner of Devonshire Incense. He makes the best incense! He also knows almost everything, and is a blast to talk to.
30 One of my first Photoshop artistic efforts. I based this on a picture of Eric, but did it free-handed (no tracing or overlays or anything).
31 Homer from the side- these are pics the former owner took; I grabbed them before he took down his 'For Sale' website.
32 Work assignment- CPS Pictionary! My phrase was 'Inappropriate discipline'

51 It's Morrissey with a kitten! What could be better?
