The cat's back?

Punishingly Intricate

Cat came back! I had a feeling he was close by under a bush but was afraid I was deluding myself.

Man, not the funnest Sunday ever.

Fortunately, he came back in time for a) me to give him his shot close to when I would have anyway so his insulin schedule isn't all effed up and b) me to go out to dinner w/ my friend. I don't know where we are going but there will be alcoholic drinks involved for sure.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh, thank goodness, lisah! I'd have been so panicky!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yay kitty-come-back-ishness!

Have folks heard the Old 97's song "Murder (or a Heart Attack)"? It's about when the songwriter lost his cat. (His cat came back too.)

A good song to play to celebrate.

He was just testing to see if you cared. :-)

Ah, there's the neighbor's yapping dog. Knew the stillness was too good to last....

Now tagless for your comfort.

lisah, I'm glad he came home!

Dinner tonight was French toast made with leftover challah bread. Topped with sliced strawberries, blueberries and bananas. With a choice of whipped cream, powdered sugar or syrup.

My kids looked at me like I'm being inhabited by an alien parasite, probably thinking, "Whipped cream for supper? What have you done with our REAL mommy?"

Thrive to spite them

YAY for the return of the Kitty!

Did anyone watch the Masters of Science Fiction on ABC last night?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

And the hole
In the screen is barely big enough for you
And not near enough for me to go

And the whole damn complicated
Situation could've been
Avoided if I'd only shut the window

CHORUS:
And I may be leavin' myself open
To a murder or a heart attack
But I'm leavin' the back door open
'Til you come back, 'til you come back

And I may be movin' myself closer
To a real untimely end
But I'm leavin' the back door open
'Til you come home again, 'til you come home again

And I told
The neighbors, I put pictures up
And handed out some flyers at the show

And the whole town speculating
Situation could've been
Avoided if I'd only shut the window

CHORUS

REPEAT CHORUS

Dog is my co-pilot.

lisah, so glad your kitty returned. It's especially scary when they have health issues. I have a Labrador retriever with diabetes and Cushing's disease. She's on insulin 2x/day. I had a medic alert dog tag made for her.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Kitty came back! Happiness!
