J.D. flew to Colorado Springs Tuesday morning in the wee hours; he left the house at 4:30 a.m. Tonight he called to tell me that he lost $2,000 gambling.* Business conferences are so much more fun than academic ones: casino night, luxury resorts, real food. Meanwhile, I have been holding down the fort. We did have one assailant: Mr. Cute kitty cat. He is still around, or at least he was at 5:00 p.m. today. He showed up yesterday. He seems to be living under the old back porch of our neighbor's house. I think we'll keep him. What's the saying, while the cat is away the mice will play... or rather, While J.D. is away (living it up) I took in a stray! :) The picture of Jonathan is from this morning, when he discovered how to get belts off the hook in the closet. He was oh-so pleased with himself and had this mischievous grin.
* Of course it was only play money, in case that was not clear.
