Yesterday was the opening of our kiosk at the local mall. We had tons of people stop by, got lots of donations, and had two kittens adopted. Here are some more pics http://www.flickr.com/photos/rmockmt/5005830284/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/rmockmt/5005829020/in/photostream/...

I keep hearing more and more bad things about the animal control center here. I was told this story by a lady (Nancy) who is fostering some cats awaiting adoption: Her own beautiful black cat, Milagro, was a kitten at the animal control center. They gassed him and put him in the freezer...

I found out this morning that the first cat I photographed, Lionel, was adopted this weekend. YEAH!!!! Another life saved.

I had another photo assignment last night for our local Project Purr. I have learned that kittens have ADD. They can be really hard to work with, but two of the three I had last night were great posers. http://www.flickr.com/photos/rmockmt/4980964703/...

This past week, I was able to go with the heaviest weights ever: 51 pounds for chest press and 61 pounds for barbell rows and deadlifts. I did go out and buy a few more weights so that I could increase my range. It still amazes me how one week something is kind of hard, and then the next...

I would really like to see a Workout Manager app. That would be helpful.

My cat has developed a similar problem, but she was licking all the hair off her belly and the back of her hind legs. She has been an inside cat for a long time, and never goes outside. I took her to the vet, and he said it was either a flea allergy, a food allergy, or an inhalation...

As far as I know, Eggland's Best is NOT part of the recall. I have recently switched from regular eggs to free-range, cage-free eggs. You can get them at Wal-Mart too. They may not be totally organic, but I figure it's better than the standard mass-production egg. They are more expensive...

Usually, I don't really feel it until 12-14 hours after the workout. If it is a workout I haven't done in a while, I might feel it immediately after. I know when that happens that I am REALLY going to feel it the next day. Many times my muscles just feel very "used", and not sore. I've had...

I get to go on another photo shoot today....taking pics of 7 kittens. I have to resist the urge to take them home with me. I already have two of my own, and a parrot to boot. I see a new avenue of work opening up for me maybe....pet portraits maybe ?? ;)

Is that KCM's "30 minutes to Kickboxing"? I really like that one for a short workout. Her form may not be perfect, but I've seen much worse. I recently got her 30 minute Circuit Burn, and it's very good IMO. Works for me!

I am in the last month of STS. I chose to do the 6 month rotation to give myself more time to build my strength. I'm in Meso 3 now. I am constantly amazed by the heavier and heavier weights I am lifting. It might be hard the first week, but then it seems pretty easy the second time around...

Today was my first day shooting photos of cats for Project Purr. Project Purr is an group which rescues cats from death row at various animal control facilities in our city. I really can't foster any animals since I already have 3 to take care of, but I can take their pictures.....a great way...

Sorry to hear about your Dad's illness. I am a medical technologist, and we study this fungus in mycology class. You Dad's immune system might be suppressed (like in a lot of older folks), and that's how he got it. It's hard to catch unless you have lowered immunity. Histoplasma is another...

Sounds to me like they are jealous. Just smile and flex those muscles. They show how hard you work.

This mess in the gulf is kind of like 9/11....a lot of things that should have been done just simply weren't. More than one party is to blame, although I think BP is the major contributor. Again, I say, if you are going to do something that has the potential to create a catastrophic...

I had a problem last year with one of my cats pooping outside the litterbox. I finally figured out which one it was, and apparently something had happened to make her not like their litterbox anymore (it was a big corner one with a lid and a door). I ended up getting them a big one with no...

I live in Louisiana. I can't even think about this situation without my head exploding, or me wanting to go on a homicidal rage. The Gulf is going to be ruined for years to come, and BP seems to have this "oh well" attitude about it. Maybe if they had put a damn safety valve on the thing in...

I didn't get to photograph several things I wanted to because the weather was not cooperating. Lots of wind and rain....will have to go back in a non-El Nino year. DV usually get something like 2-3 inches of rain in a year, and it had already received that by February. Good for the wild...

I spent some time in Death Valley National Park this past February...been working on my images. There is no way I can post them here...they are all just too complex and the files are too large. You can see them at http://www.flickr.com/photos/rmockmt/ I've got more images to do for the...
