Heterochromia iridium



Sundays are good for several things,
Waking up at noon and going home early from work. Everywhere closes early around five or six so it always feels like everyone is at home relaxing.
Listening to the Moth at six on the drive home.
Hanging out with the kids right when sunset illuminates the window, and it’s always a rare treat for me to have Joey sit so still for photos. (I can see why my mom thinks Joey is a female cat and always calls him “Joely” now. He’s got an effeminate quality about him. That top picture reminds me of an odalisque.)
My dead lucky bamboo enjoying its last days in the sun.
And best of all about Sundays, Phamily dinners. A collaborated effort by Mom and Dad, spicy noodles with crab meat and tofu (bun rieu).

Happy Easter! My cat Joey sits on by the window everyday in hopes of meeting his favorite lizard. He goes crazy every time the lizard crawls by the window. Every day.

…ever since I brought this cat bowl home, Maggie and Joey have been more partial to drinking from it than the chartreuse bowl.
…a golden horse, for luck
…and new knobs for a drawer



I heart Joey
Sunday 9.26.2010

I think my cat Joey is in love with me. Everyday when I come home from work and lie on my bed to read a magazine or if I’m doing something on the computer, he’d always come into my room, plop himself on the floor in this manner and stare amorously at me. And most of the time, in the mornings, I’ll wake up to find him in my chair next to my bed, also staring at me. He’s so cute. I heart him.
morning sunshine!

2 hours of cooking. It only takes me 10 minutes to devour lunch. Something to boast to the grand kids later on, I guess.

Maggie and Joey, waiting for lunch, spends their idle time by the open window staring into the sun.

Maggie and Joey, after finding out lunch was not for them, goes on a napping marathon.
The one thing that makes me very jealous of my cats is their ability to have nap sessions 85% of the day, everyday. I finally had a day off and decided not to go shopping like I normally do, and instead, cooked a hearty lunch for everyone. yeah, it consisted mostly of fried tofu and dumplings, but I did try to make some banh bot chien. Delish!

I’ve been feeling this way lately. l a z y. My favorite time of the day has slowly been around midnight when the cats have run out of energy from their daily romping and sock thievery, and they come running into my room for a tummy scratch and good long nap until around 3 or 4 in the morning when the romping begins with fury all over again.


The spitting image of Joey around 12:05, and clementine season. Citrus lovers rejoice! I know they’re good for you, but I’m beginning to wonder if consuming so much in one day is considered overkill. But they’re sooo d e l i c i o u s!
