One day I may find my voice again, but, for now, I'm speechless.

Needless to say, the Creature household is very sad these days. <br /><br />TIMMY! was one of kind. The kid lived every minute to the fullest during his short life. We think maybe he knew something we didn't. Without exaggeration, he was the happiest cat ever and he brought us more joy than I could ever express. <br /><br />Rest in peace, buddy. Rest in peace. <br /><br />Above is TIMMY! in his pet-my-fat-belly prime and below is a clip of his acting debut in a PSA made for the NYC Department of Health. Yes, he was a star. And, no, that's not me.<br /><br /><iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/B2kWAJ-cn-4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br /><br />On a blogging note, this will probably wrap up posting on <span style="font-style:italic;">State of the Day</span> for a while, if not for always. Maybe one day I'll resurrect the place, but for now I'd prefer to leave TIMMY! as its legacy. <br /><br />Thanks, all.<br /><br>creaturehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11844654681170087745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18410974.post-34770330964887305682011-03-27T10:44:00.000-04:002011-03-27T10:45:34.092-04:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4isSazisT6o/TY9NYflCbBI/AAAAAAAABcg/anp0NBA0RJg/s1600/Newt.jpg"><img style="border: medium none;
