{Cute alert:  a little over a week ago, we found this little fuzzy lover hiding under the hood of Mr. Vague's car (!)  He's come to live with us for good, and he's breaking our hearts with his adorableness.  He hasn't told us his name yet, but it would seem his middle name, at least, is Trouble.  He enjoys doing the mischief and running amok.  And we're super happy he chose us. }
