After an absolutely awful week, I had to say goodbye to one of the best cats ever this morning. Swiggy was my loudest road trip companion and my biggest adventurer. She lived for at least 17 years, but that still doesnβt feel like enough. Kidney disease sucks. Hug your pets and hug your people.

It is so nice outside that I took Swiggy for a little adventure. She sniffed a bush, made friends with 2 strangers, and was amused by a big tree.

Some of my students bring me fruit after exams to tell me how it went. Bananas are bad (because I hate bananas). Apples are good. I got very mixed messages this morning. Notable exam-related banana messages: βthat exam elevated my boiling pointβ and βmy IMFs are not that strong.β

Things still arenβt going super well for the Starr family Christmas tree, but things are going great for Smudge and Mabel.

It seems fitting that my first post over here is Purrl with the Christmas tree. Blurry, but too cute not to share.
