The Office . . . No, Not That One




















The above pictures would look much better if I were in them, of course, but here I am tonight, tacked on at the end like a tired old postcard. 
There is quite a strange story about why and how that wonderful kitty appeared on the Human's wall, but we will just call it a Miracle and leave it at that.

J'accuse!


That's a sourdough roll, isn't it?

I see you haven't prepared a small crustless slice for me, carefully torn into wee, easily managed pieces.

As you know I would enjoy.

Sunday Selfie: Yes, I Do Need
the Whole Bottom Half of the Bed


There won't be any room for your feets, none at all.

No, not even right next to the window. I need that for my tailio.

You go take your nap someplace else.

What are you doing sleeping in the middle of the day anyway?

          I'm Ready for My Mani-Pedi Now

                 But if you wake me while you're doing it, 
                 I hope you have the blood bank on speed dial.


                    
                 Now you can do the other one. What? 
                 No? Well, I suppose you know best. Heh.

Our Special Veteran

This is the Human's father Bill, a Marine captain who for four years fought in some of the fiercest battles that raged in the South Pacific during WWII. After that, he was sent to occupy Nagasaki for several months after The Bomb was dropped.

He left the military at the end of the war; he never felt he'd done any more than his duty and believed those on the other side had done the same. He lived the rest of his life as the generous and peace-loving man he was, and though he died more than 30 years ago, the Human thinks of him often and knows she could not have had a better father.

                        Is It Safe to Come Out Now?

Well, Kitties, The Human is still acting a little strange
(I know, I know--how can I even tell?) but it seems
some of the weeping and wailing and  gnashing of teefs
has subsided, and perhaps it is safe to leave my little fort.
Maybe the clear sight of my noble profile will brighten
her day and bring good cheer and the return of optimism
that has been sadly absent for the past 48 hours.
Time to venture forth and Carry On.

                 So I See I Am Not On My Blog Tonight

So the Human stopped on her way home to take this nice soothing picture, since she says all the Humans need to be soothed right now, no matter whom they voted for. The pretty sky and the nice grass *are* very restful, but you all know what would make this picture about 100 times better and even more soothing, don't you? Yep, that's right: ME.  Well, maybe tomorrow.
