Tilly says hello!

A frisky tortoiseshell kitten in a bright sun beam playing with brown packing paper. It's so crinkly!

Enjoying the sun and the packing paper! #MorningDonut #CatMom #Kitten #KittenSpam #TortieGirl #Tortitude #FlawlessNotClawless

A tiny tortoiseshell kitten perched on the crossbar of a treadmill.

Lil Donut is not much of a personal trainer. #MorningDomut #CatMom #Kitten #KittenSpam #TortieGirl #Tortitude

A sweet little tortoiseshell kitten and her hand towel doppelganger stare at the camera

A friend gave us a dish towel that looks just like Lil Donut! #MorningDonut #CatMom #TortieGirl #Tortitude #Kitten #KittenSpam

A bright-eyed tortoiseshell kitten against a blurred background. She sort of looks like she is wearing a green plaid cape!

Good morning, internets! Meet Dame Lilith Donut of Pumpernickel, First of Her Name, Fourth of Her Clowder. In an attempt to bring some joy to this miserable world, I will try to post a #MorningDonut photo each day! #CatMom #Kitten #KittenSpam #TortieGirl #Tortitude

Museum exhibit featuring two pads of post-it notes, claiming they were invented circa 1977 by Art Fry and Spencer Silver. The audacity!

Wait a minute....my understanding was that two blonde besties invented the post-it! #PostIt #RomyAndMichelle #90sHumor

Overheard at the theatre: "It's all fun and games until someone gets malaria." #Overheard #GoSeeLiveTheatre

My favorite genre is videos of giant dudes fostering teeny kittens. #CatMom #Disassociating

Other languages are just so much cooler than English!

I've been rewatching ER, and in a Grey's Anatomy world, it's just so darn quaint! I keep watching scenes and thinking, "Why didn't that helicopter with a donor organ crash dramatically?" Or "Why aren't they having sex right now?" ER is sort of adorable! #GreysAnatomy #ER #Rewatch

A fluffy grey and white cat lounges on top of a coffee table, casually stretching his paw down over the head of a floofy white and grey cat, who gazes at the camera with a clear "mom, make him stop!" look in her eye.

One of Loki's favorite games is "I'm not touching you!" Luna enjoys it less. #CatMom #Siblings #FluffMonsterGeneral #FloofForDays #ImNotTouchingYou #CatsOfBlueSky #Cats

A bespectacled brunette woman in a polka dot shirt smiles next to a smiling blond 3-year-old girl with tousled hair and a Bluey sweatshirt.

This magical human is FOUR YEARS OLD today! Happy Birthday, Fallon! #AuntLifeRocks #Niece #Nibling

A fluffy grey and white cat stares me down with his piercing green eyes. He is on my chest and I am not going ANYWHERE. Have you got that?

Loki says absolutely not to this end of sabbatical nonsense. My presence is required at home. #CatMom #LapCat #FluffMonsterGeneral #Denial #CallingInCat #CatsOfBlueSky #Cats

Five kittens and their sweet mom stare up at the camera. Yes - all six looking at me at the same time! A miracle!

My record is six!

Ours often express serious concerns about that weird robot cat.

Information is easy to find. And let's face it, this administration is not hiding what they are doing. The cruelty of willful ignorance is positively stunning. #WeAreNotOkay

A handsome ginger man and his happy brunette wife smiling in a rare picture that we both like of us!

I don't start teaching until next week, but today feels like the official end of sabbatical - tossing 3 angry kitties in a car & driving them to Kentucky & away from @thegiantginger.bsky.social. I'm homesick already! #GoffNScruggs #SuperDuperGrossInLove #LongDistanceIsTheDistanceThatIsIncorrect

We just accidentally binged A Man On The Inside. Brilliant and funny and warm and so life affirming. #MikeSchur does it again! And seriously - is there anyone classier than Ted Danson? I doubt it. @teddanson.bsky.social @netflix.com

A fluffy grey and white cat nestled happily inside a red and black duffle bag that looks an awful lot like - though is definitely NOT - his cat carrier.

This little goober is happily tucked in my duffle bag while I pack. But I can promise you, when I try to get him into his very similar carrier tomorrow, things will NOT be this chill. #CatMom #CatLady #CatsOfBluesky #Caturday #FluffMonsterGeneral

This is perfection! #Cute #BabyRaccoon #Bubbles

I'm visiting a fellow SLAC this week to write an external review report for their Theatre program. It's really fun to explore other programs, and a responsibility and honor to be part of helping them envision their future! #Theatre

A tortoiseshell kitty with bright, yellow/green eyes. She is on full alert because someone outside had the audacity to exist.

Floofy white and grey cat casually poses for the 987th photo her mom took today. Is she fantasizing about ripping the rectangle right out of her hands?

A handsome ginger man smiles into the distance, with his trusty fluffy grey and white cat perched on his shoulder - fluffy tail on full display!

On the road for the next couple of days, homesick for all the furry inhabitants of our apartment - including my #huuuuuuuuuusband! #GoffNScruggs #CatMom #Cats #CatsOfBlueSky #CatLady

I just heard a youth use the word "skibidy" in the wild. Thanks, #AmerocanHysteria for keeping me up on the lingo! #Old #NotQualofiedToOperateSlang

A fluffy grey and white cat snoozes on his perfectly criss-crossed little peets, tufty toe beans and Lloyd Bridges eyebrow whiskers on full display!

Okay... Now #DTW is giving me #REM and #BonJovi. You sure know how to soothe this baby Gen-X-er. #OregonTrailGeneration #LosingMyReligion

I think #DTW is currently playing the #Barbie soundtrack, and I am HERE FOR IT.

A very handsome ginger man and his brunette, bespectacled then-fiancee (now wife) rest their cheeks on their hands in a faux pout, sharing an orange-cicle milkshake with two straws. It has been a wild ride!

Oh hey - 13 years ago today I went on my first date with @thegiantginger.bsky.social! Go team us! #GoffNScruggs #Huuuuuuuuuusband #SuperDuperGrossInLove #FirstDateIVersary

Science!

A sweet tortoiseshell kitty happily cooking her little belly on a radiator. She has never forgiven us for moving out of that house.

My Tilly used to love the radiators in our old house! I feel like we need to seriously consider that as criteria for the next time we move!
