Trophy; May 21 2025

I’ve had to make some compromises with Madame President in order to get any work done. She gets to attack my hoodie strings, and I get to type. It’s working for us.

We just got back from her first vet visit, where the staff were lovely and Madame was proclaimed to be both perfectly healthy and the most adorable cat ever. I am pleased on both counts.

She doesn’t even weigh a kilogram yet, she’s illegally small.

In working news, I finally got around to writing a short story that had been on the backburner of my brain for almost a year now. I plan on submitting it to a Toronto-based writing competition, so wish me luck! Winners would be getting a trophy, and.

And I really want a trophy, y’all.

Looking back, I don’t think I’ve ever gotten a trophy for anything. I’ve accomplished things, and I think I maybe got a ribbon once or twice? But it’d be very cool to get a trophy, especially for something I’m truly passionate about.

I want to give it my best shot. So, here’s hoping.
