Further Thanks, Further Apologies (Ferret/Shower Cap)

My friends,

Thank you so much for you very kind words in response to yesterday’s post. I can’t express how much that outpouring of support meant to me. I have the best readers a fake superhero could ask for.

Regrettably, real life keeps coming between us this week. My very beautiful, very old, cat’s health took an extremely sharp turn for the worse this morning. I’ve spent much of the day at the animal hospital and will be returning there shortly; they’re keeping her overnight and running a bunch of tests. I’m hopeful, but we’ll just have to wait and see what happens. 

Unfortunately, this has interfered with my ability to deliver tonight’s promised blog entry. Assuming life leaves me the hell alone for a bit, I plan on resuming the blog Monday. 

Thank you for your understanding, and spare a thought for my small grey friend if you’re able.

- Cap

Do what you need to do. We'll be here when you are ready to don the mask and bathrobe again - however long that may take.

Unbeknownst to you. (in a truly ironic twist) You have become a super hero to me and many other people.

I'm sorry to hear your kitty is ill.

Take care and we'll see you soon.

Thanks again for over three years of your unique kind of helping us all through this god dammed nightmare.
