Almost missed Homer Day 2012
Been out and about all weekend. Completely forgot it was Homer's special day until we got home. He's still a little clawed terror at times but the rest of the time he looks like this so we put up with it. Happy Homer Day!

For being such a vicious, ankle biting, holy terror when he's awake, Homer turns into an angel when he's asleep. And he just loves curling up with us... or Spooky... or even Patty if he wasn't such a grump. [+/-] Hide/Show Text [+/-] Hide/Show Text
Had a bit of a scare earlier this year, but everything worked out so we can celebrate another Homer Day (http://sumocat.blogspot.com/search/label/Homer%20Day). Our baby Homer is two years old today, which translates into 24 human years based on biological development. Happy Homer Day to all, and special shout-out to James Kendrick and his great birthday news (http://twitter.com/jkendrick/status/12669292153). Happy Newt Day!

Observant readers may have noticed that while I am a farmer's market-shopping, Prius-driving, paper-reducing, rainwater-collecting, green energy-endorsing vegetarian, I don't celebrate Earth Day (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth_Day). I've nothing against it. I just take the "Earth Day, Every Day" philosophy to the logical conclusion that we need no single special day to think about the planet on which we live.
Ah, but the universe had other designs in mind. For while I can disregard an arbitrarily designated occasion, I cannot ignore that today is Homer (http://picasaweb.google.com/sumocat666/Homer02?feat=directlink)'s birthday. (I can try but my wife won't let me.) Henceforth, in recognition of the day Homer was squeezed into the world, making it a better place, April 22 will be known as Homer Day (http://sumocat.blogspot.com/search/label/Homer%20Day) on Sumocat's Scribbles. Have a good one! [+/-] Hide/Show Text [+/-] Hide/Show Text
