New home

So.

I think I've moved, at least for now. I don't think I'm going to pull all my old stuff (ie. the stuff in Blogger) to my new home, but you already know where to find all of it anyway, right? It'll be here, just waiitng for you to come back and check it out.

Anyway, my new home is at beest.weblogs.us. Swing by, check it out, have fun. Remember that I'm stillmoving in, so things aren't quite what they will be. Wallpapered, I mean. With that nice green paisley they have at Wal-Mart...

Potential for change

I've been experimenting a little with some other blogging systems and software and am considering a change in venue for my blog. I like Blogger's ease, but I want more flexibility and expandability for my stuff.

For instance, if I could assign posts to different catagories, I wouldn't feel like I have to maintain five freakin' blogs. Of course, I *don't* maintain five blogs, and that's a big part of the problem, too.

At any rate, consider this your notice. I'll get back to you with more information once I decide what I'm going to do.

Cat update

I'm happy to say that Vaca is still alive and (reasonably) well. His hind quarters and legs are still paralyzed, but he's learned how to get around pretty well with just his front legs. In fact, he gets around well enough that he generally beats all the other cats to the food bowls at feeding time.

I still have to express his bladder which pretty much turns into a little twice-a-day skirmish, but other than that, he's doing alright. He comes over a few times a day to get some lovin', and when he's feeling particularly frisky, he either chases other cats around or tries to sneak outside.

Soon, The Wife and I are going to build him a little wheelchair/cart contraption that he can use to go faster and scare the bejesus outta the other cats. Then Vaca will live up to his new nickname: Handicat.
