What I don’t write about

July 30th, 2006 by Bill

Today my weekend leisure was disrupted by clip-clopping from the street below. It seemed on odd sound for city slicker ears so I went to the balcony and took a look. I was hoping to identify it.

It was horses. And why not? We’ve got SUVs, Harleys, cyclists, skateboards and those compressed “sensible” vehicles that are good for the environment (don’t recall what they’re called) … why not horses?

Anyway … what do I not write about when I post my scatterbrained and irrelevant posts? Well, here’s an inkling:

1) I’m thinking of selling my condo because I’ve realised I hate this Whyte Avenue neighbourhood which, from being a lovely place, seems to have become a magnet for assholes.

2) I may be stuck with the option of finding a new job or moving to Vancouver to keep the one I have. Oh, the things I could post on that one!

3) The most troubling … Gonzo may be on the bubble. She is roughly 20, cats average about 18 to 23 years, she has some health issues … and, yeah.

Who, or what, is Gonzo? A while back I started (but did not finish) that strory with The tale of the Gonzo cat - Part I. Maybe I’ll do Part II soon. However, I have some concerns about how this tale concludes.

(The above all sounds more blasé than it is.)

    I’m sending virtual get better kisses for Gonzo’s adorable head.

    Good luck for Gonzo… It sucks when your pets get old.

    Gonzo would thank you all but she is currently napping.

    It’s hard to think that the day may come when you have to let go of a beloved pet - here’s hoping that Gonzo rallies back around!!

    It must be stressful worrying over your job situation - hope it works out for the best for you!

    I had that happen (with the horses) when I lived in Vancouver’s West End. We took photos too … weird but not really that odd I guess. The horses have to get to work in Stanley Park somehow.

    Bill, I want to forewarn you that there are assholes everywhere. You can’t avoid them.

    I heart Gonzo.
