Back to Basics
Life in the Boomer Lane has been spending so much time wallowing in the TWO HUGE SCARY news items that are consuming the entire planet right now, that she has had little time to direct her attention to the normal drivel that readers have come to depend on from her. She has barely been […]
Cats Flying Off the Roof of My Car
December 23, 2011
(The following is the eighth in my new series, “Old Posts to Dredge out on Slow Weekends Because When I Posted Them Originally People Cared More About the Economy and World Peace Than My Blog.” Although nothing has changed, it’s the start of a really slow weekend, blogging-wise.)

A Cat By Any Other Name

December 11, 2010
Life in the Boomer Lane is getting ready for the kids to descend on the house for the holidays (As she writes this, Jorge/George, the normally tree-climbing lawn guy, is dragging the ladder out of the garage so he can string the interior holiday lights.) Technically, they will be celebrating Chanukah, which will have already been over […]
Why People Shave Cats
July 20, 2010

Life in the Boomer Lane begins to notice that she is avoiding petting Miracle the Cat (even more so than usual), because the slightest touch will release a shower of cat hair all around her and she will be walking around in a perpetual state of cat hair […]
Cats Flying Off the Roof of My Car
July 7, 2010
Miracle the Cat is the latest in a long line of cats Life in the Boomer Lane has had that she has really had no part in acquiring. There’s not one thing she can say about Miracle or about any of my other cats that would be worth reading. Writers far more clever than she […]
