Makes things up. Writes them down. Dreams about growing up but not yet. 

Hi! I’m Molly Hodgdon. I live in Vermont with my beautiful FIV+ cats Fergus and Francie. Banner photo by W. Eugene Smith. Profile pic is a postcard from my collection mailed 1908.

Not a bot. Not selling anything. Just a keeper of forgotten cats.
