We recently moved to Brenham, and today (Sunday) we decided to follow one of our old Houston traditions of going out for a big Sunday breakfast. The only problem is we couldn’t find a single restaurant in Brenham that was open for breakfast on Sunday morning! We drove around to several likely candidates, but Mynagirl had already suggested the contigency of heading to the Chappell Hill Diner if we couldn’t find anything open. See, we have learned in our few months here in Brenham that almost nothing local is open on Sundays. Sure, the normal chain restaurants and retail outlets are open, but just about anything owned and run by locals is closed (which is strange for a town that is such a weekend tourist destination, but oh well).

Also, note that we have heard rumors of an IHOP

The History
Our one-eared tabby Tigger has been a bag of bones for a while. After our calico Scout died of Feline AIDS we knew that similar complications might develop in our other two cats, and when Tigger started getting thin and throwing up a lot we knew it was time to take her to the vet. She’s hyperthyroidal (read: the hungriest, yowliest, unsatisfiable cat on the planet) and has some heart problems, and constant hairball issues (thus the throwing up). So far she hasn’t tested FIV positive but she doesn’t have any white blood cells either so clearly something is happening here.

After even the meds weren’t putting any weight on her,
