This Is Dijon. Dijon Was My Cat For 12 Years. We Adopted Him Despite Him Having FIV, The Feline Version

This is Dijon. Dijon was my cat for 12 years. We adopted him despite him having FIV, the feline version of HIV. He was a remarkably friendly, remarkably loving cat who was more than a bit stupid. He was also gigantic, weighing in at a hefty 22 pounds. 

I lost Dijon today; his fight with FIV was finally over. He died in his home, surrounded by the people and things that he loved.

I am going to miss him dearly.

So I've held off on posting this for a long time, because my film skills are not so epic, but this is video documentation from one of my installations.

I decided that I was going to teach myself how to paint clouds in preparation for an MFA project that I'm working on. This is the first of those studies. Click through for the big version.

(Still alive, just busy. Graduate school does that. Who knew?)

Rebloggin' this over from my Weirdo site, because it took longer than normal, and I am pleased.

OHHHHH IT’S A SNAKE

I don't have any idea why this makes me laugh so hard, but it does. Cackled like a witch, I did.

Okay, I'm not sure how I feel about this one. Also, I'm turning into Bob Ross.
