So we had to have our sweet pea of a kitty Emily put to sleep on Sunday. She was diagnosed with a heart condition in January and has been on medication since then and doing really well. (The medications were Lasix and Enalipril for anyone interested.)
Anyway, this weekend the drugs just weren't enough anymore, her heart had grown too weak.
She was a really sweet kitty who was such a big part of our lives for so long. Rob got her on his own when he was in college. She used to be a more timid kitty but in recent years had become very bold and funny. We miss her a lot and all her funny antics such as insisting on drinking whatever we were drinking, trying to steal fried chicken from our plates, and insisting on always sitting on us while we were trying to do work.
Here are a few favorite memories from this blog:

Notice my new header photo! I will try to put a note here anytime I change it. This is from my trip to Italy last September. We had a lovely day at the Avignonesi Vineyards and Winery in Tuscany.
Questions about my new weblog platform?...
Glad you asked. It's a super awesome new platform for creating weblogs or any other dynamic site created by my genius boyfriend Rob (robreed at gmail dot com). Email him and tell him how awesome he is.
Why you should visit this site regularly
Because I'm totally hilarious and mostly all I ever do is get too upset about everything, which is typically entertaining for everyone else.
What's going on right now
We're still working on getting settled at our new condo in East Boston. The living room paint color took four tries and we had to paint the final color twice because we screwed up the wall after the first time trying to put a shelf up. We recently discovered our kitchen sink isn't properly sealed to the counter and leaks. The garbage disposal was also leaking and getting worse. Then it fell off recently and I reattached it, after which the leaks from the disposal stopped. Good thing we're not too scared to do some home repairs ourselves. Someday I hope to decide the place is settled enough to have a long overdue housewarming party.

In Memory of Emily the kitty
Greatest kitty in the world! 1992-2010.
Many of you probably have heard Emily stories. She was a sweet and funny cat who seemed to get more personality every year. Imagine how much she had by the time she was 17 and a half years old!
