The Orange Furball

Takeru "Tsunami" Kobayashi has once again won Nathan's annual hot dog eating contest for his sixth straight win. Damn man, just hearing the amount of hot dogs you ate this year (53 3/4!) makes me feel a bit queasy. Though, he actually had some close competition this year in Joey Chestnut, who managed to eat 52 of them. WOW.

♥ HAPPY BIRTHDAY MR. SWIRLS! ♥

Yes, I actually celebrate my cats' birthdays. Dork is me. XD ...Well, really, it isn't his birthday per se, but this is when he came into my life. I'M SO CHEESEY.

Its been about one year since we rescued you and Sophie (now deceased) from that ant-ridden, waterlogged pet carrier at my grandma's house. That night, I stayed up worried sick that either of you would pass away if I even attempted to get some sleep. But, you've managed to grow into this large, orange furball who still acts like he's small enough to fit in my hands. Here's to many more happy years together! :3
