My Chunky Monkey Kitty

I recently brought my cat to the vet. Kitty is 6-7 months old now, so it’s time for her to get a rabies shot. I also wanted to get her a standard wellness check.

The 5 minute car ride there was…fun.

  

When we got there, I wasn’t shocked by the nurses’ reactions.

They put her on the kitty scale, where she clocked in at 9 pounds.

Later, Boyfriend and I ended up in a pet store and I got kitty some Natural Health Food. We opened it up and gave her just a little when we got home.

Do you guys have fat cats? If not, HOW DID YOU STOP THIS FROM HAPPENING?!?!?

Gia Want Sugar

 For the past few weeks, I’ve been eating very low carb, as Boyfriend does.

(I know I’m opening myself to a bunch of “moderation is key, eat healthy grains!” comments, but oh well. I won’t be all preachy about this, but it makes sense to me.)

Anyway, this happens about weekly now:

I’m allowed to eat cheese, thank goodness.

I’ve made some tasty carb alternatives, though:

Black Soy bean chili!

Low Carb Pizza!

Low Carb Chocolate peanut butter fudge brownies!

Sure, there are a couple of side effects, like the occasionally carb dream.

But I’m mostly ok with it.

Anyone else low carbing it?

Life with Cat

So, this is pretty much  my life now:

I think this counts as exercise, no? 

Psshaaww, sleep. Whatever.

How on earth has civilization progressed since the invention of cats?

Happy Thanksgiving 2014!

Happy Thanksgiving AND throwback Thursday! I know I've shared this a bunch of times before, but really, there's no way I could make a better Thanksgiving post. If you haven't read it yet, enjoy!

In 16somethingsomething, a bunch of Pilgrims came to America.

Yay, religious tolerance! How nice!

They brought supplies with them to get through the first winter in America.

They were in trouble.  But then the pilgrims met the natives.

The pilgrims didn’t really understand the native people or their ways.

The pilgrims were also kind of jerks.

Things started to look pretty bleak for the pilgrims. Until...

The native americans shared their harvest, and the pilgrims survived.

 And they were super grateful. For a solid five minutes.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
