This week I've been seeing a ginger kitten sitting in the third floor window of a house down the street. Everyone's windows are open due to the heat wave, so I probably only noticed ginger kitten now because I can hear the meowing.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Are they just trying to say there will be eggs AND toast?

I think? We have never had a hot breakfast before, so I am afraid to get my hopes up for eggs and meat of some sort. Usually the breakfasts are way to starchy for me, and make me crazy! It is an "All-School Meeting", so who knows- we have them twice per year, and the breakfast is always (untoasted) bagels, cream cheese, fruit and coffee.

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

When I lived in San Francisco, it seemed weird that there were no screens in windows. Once a friend's cat was sitting in an open window when the cat rolled over and fell out the window. It was a three story fall, but the cat was OK.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

No screens?? That seems crazy.

Well, there aren't mosquitos in San Francisco.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Last Friday was my office dinner. My brother came over to look after Ryan while we schmoozed with the office bods (a process that apparently involved no less than three episodes of the Muppet Show). He confirmed it went pretty smoothly:

Me: "So how did you go with Ryan tonight?"
Brendan: "Good, no problems. It was like babysitting Manny from Modern Family."

I feel I should be watching more Modern Family, to better understand my boy.

Not that I remember.

Punishingly Intricate

There are definitely flies in SF, but, yeah, no screens! I had to get little adjustable screens for my windows there to try to prevent my cat from just coming and going as he pleased. (It didn't really work, though, he'd flee out the door and would go crazy if I tried to keep him in so eventually I just left a back window ajar for him so he could be the inside/outside cat he was.)
