My old girl Pawley passed this morning after having a stroke. She was just a few months shy of 19, but this comes ten days after learning about my fiancee's passing so I'm barely held together right now. #Caturday #Cats #Cat

An old white cat with golden patches on her head and sides poses atop a brown kitchen table with a royal look of superiority upon her.

This is her favorite of me:

A picture of me in 2007 with a chocolate cream pie smeared over my face like a total goddamn clown.

A couple of my favourite pictures of Dani, her favourite of me is when I was pied in the face. Love you, my goofball angel.

Danielle was an incredible flautist, doubling on piccolo, that never received the attention she deserved. She's one of the very few people I've ever met that is as passionate about music as I am. We briefly met as kids and were reunited in college through the band programs. She also sang.

A delicate spider web is highlighted by sunlight, showcasing its intricate design. The web appears ethereal against a dark, blurred background with a soft brush of blue and orange colours as a contrast to the web.
