Immature Entrepreneur Lensography

Athena is my firstborn (as my mom refers to me). She was a stray that my brother and his wife found several years ago. When they brought Athena over to my place, she immediately crawled in my lap and made herself at home. I was in love. (That's my metrosexual side coming through. I'm fine with it.) Athena is sort of the mom and takes care of Jasmine. She will literally lick you until she reaches bone. OW her tongue hurts.

Jasmine is kitty number two. I was on a business trip in Wichita and had a little time to kill one evening after work. Normally I won't go to pet stores because it really bothers me seeing the animals locked up in small cages. For some reason that particular night I found myself in Petsmart. I certainly had no intention of bringing home a new roommate. As I walked by the cages and played with the kitties, Jasmine reached both paws through the cage and literally grabbed my face. I knew I had to adopt her. Jasmine is a big baby and whines and cries for me constantly. She has really bad gas and likes to cropdust the room as she walks by. Holy jeez I love her. And she and Athena are totally BFF.

Okay, all that mushy stuff aside--I love my cats, but they need to get jobs. They contribute no income to my household plus they make me clean their poop. Not cool. Oh well, what can you do? I mean, they don't have thumbs so they can't do it.

Sometimes I feel like an archaeologist when I clean out their litter box.

Krypto the Superdog is the newest addition to my home. This little punk is so crazy. Here are some of the personality traits that cause Krypto to rock so hard it can barely be contained:

* Krypto gets so excited about basically anything that he pees
* Krypto doesn't care that the cats hate him and he plays with them anyway
* Krypto thinks that cat turds are, in actuality, delicious Tootsie Rolls the cats bake especially for him
* Krypto will run up to any stranger and totally French kiss them without permission
* Krypto's head is too big for his body

I always considered myself to be a cat person until Krypto came into my life. There are times I want to uppercut him because he's such a kitty terrorist but I wouldn't trade him for anything. He is the toughest dog in the neighborhood, at least when he's inside the house barking through the window. To put it in terms everyone will easily understand, Krypto is a bowlful of awesome sauce. Woof.

Do I really wear this giant Superman ring?

Yes. Yes I do. Because that is how I roll. The end.
