Goodbye my Sammy.


I gave Sam up for adoption on Friday. He's now living in a new home on 1.5 acres in Lancaster, MA. His new owners are a young couple, in their 20s. They have a 3 month old basset hound puppy named Moses. Sam will probably just avoid him, and luckily, the new owner is going to keep Sam's stuff on the 2nd floor of their 1700s Cape house, because Moses can't walk up stairs. His legs are too short.

I'll miss my guy, but he'll be happy. He'll be able to go outside, kill mice, and sleep inside at night. I'm expecting an update from the couple at the end of the week.


This is one of the photos that got Sam his new home. Isn't he regal?

















This is a photo of Sam doing one of his favorite things. I told B, his new owner, that it's one of his things. She said no problem, their dog drinks out of the tub too! This girl is definitely an animal person.



















P.S. That first photo, I opted not to put in Sam's "personal" ad. Too scary.

The Pains of Low-Cost Cable

I have some really really cheap cable service, and what's happened is Channel 4 clarity has steadily declined. I don't really watch a ton of TV, but 2 of the 3 shows I love are on CBS 4. I fiddle with the cable cord, but it doesn't get better for very long. Tonight, in about 10 minutes is a new episode of The New Adventures of Old Christine, and there's a Barack Obama ad on right now. It's coming in pretty well. Will it last? I wait with bated breath...

*** Update!! I watched the show, the channel came in! And boy was it funny!
