Well, as you’ve probably already noticed if you hang out on my Flickr stream, Matt was right. The cat is staying. She is going to be expensive, the floor will never again be free of bits of litter for more than 10 minutes at a time, and our lives will be more complicated than they used to be, but she smells like powdery comfort and her belly is really warm, you guys.

And now I have to go wake her up so that she sleeps tonight. Oddly, saying that makes me feel both ridiculous and extremely adult.
