Tired of the Twitter bird?

Yeah. Yeah. I know I haven’t been blogging much. I’ve actually got myself busy with activities that I haven’t done for a while so I’ll be posting some stuff on them soon. My home PC actually died a sudden death so most of my files are inaccessible. But I know that doesn’t really matter much since I got access to 2 other laptops – one at home and then another at work. But I was designing and coding my new website on that PC so all my working files are there, including Photoshop which I used to prepare the mock-up of the site. The boyfriend is trying to resuscitate it but it might just be the sign I need to finally get myself an iMac. Yeah, wishful thinking there.

Anyhow, I will try to post more. In the meantime, here are some cats to entertain you. Why cats? Well, I suppose it’s a break from the Twitter bird that you’ve been seeing here for the last months or so. Plus, cats rule the internet.

Here are some links to stories, articles and blog posts explaining why felines own the world wide web:

Okay, the last one wasn’t really an explanation. I just love these photos of cats.
