It turned into the Sophomores vs the other teams varsity after halftime.

I take it the winning team is from an area with a lot of students, whereas the other team is a small town school.

Kind of what we've got here in Rushville, we got decent players -- but we can't compete against the likes of Franklin, Greensburg & Shelbyville. Rushville is lucky to have over 500 students in each school. Where the other three have over that many in each grade.

A bigger pool to find talented players in and a more funded athletic program.

Kitty needs to learn to just go inside and order.

Always order fries without salt.

Kitties that aren't so random... MY KITTIES!!!

Okay so first we have the current one, the only one still with us, and she's a brat. She fetches her toys and runs around with them in her mouth howling. LOOK AT DE BELLEH!! She lives with my mom and her husband because I'm pretty allergic to cats and I can't have pets here. So she's the family kitty. And that's catnip she's rolling around in, FYI, our kitchen is nowhere ever near that filthy.

And next we have the twins. They were born... 16 years ago? They were born on the same day to the same cat as weird as it seems. The brown one had to be put down in 2008 after he stopped eating or moving and basically gave up on life. I know it sounds cruel to say that, but if you saw him before then and saw the downhill progression that fast, it doesn't seem so bad. He was blind and he had some neurological issues, and frankly, no one expected him to live to see 5, much less 12, so it's not like he didn't have a good life while he was here.

And the Siamese-ish one (snowshoe if we wanna get really persnickety about it) had to be put down at age 15 last year after her kidneys completely failed in the span of hours. The vet said they were so shrunken there was nothing they would be able to do. She couldn't even walk because she was in too much pain and the current kitty stayed by her side up until we took her to the vet. The picture I'm sharing is one of the last ones I got of her, taken maybe a month or so before she died? No one really expected her to do well either because the family they came from never had a cat live past 8, but she survived cancer and a leg amputation (and rejected her stitches twice and had to be IV fed for a week after the surgery) and was otherwise totally healthy up until her kidneys gave out. So yeah, kitties!! I want a kitty again... one day...

Well, thanks for completely bumming me out.

The top one is still around. And well. Very well, actually... weird cat getting into everything... and I still don't get the trying-to-eat-plastic-bags thing... she's gonna live to be 100 in people years.

Point being, the bottom two were my babies. And they had a good life. Yeah, they had issues along the way and obstacles to overcome, but they made it far longer than anyone thought they would.

I'll post more pictures of current kitty and her shenanigans as I get them on my site. Living kitties are the happy kitties.

[Malkavian Raven]

Yeah, not sure what is up with the cats and plastic bags thing. My oldest does it all the time, she just sits there and chews for an hour. Weirdo.

The other one you have to watch out for, he sneaks into the laundry dryer or laundry basket and lays on the warm clothes, making sure to get all of his cat hair on them before you have a chance to fold them. Not to mention, he lays down some stinkers in the litter box. He actually stunk me out of the room once.
