I'll be back shortly with a real post about the trials and tribulations of mowing.
But I wanted to ask you: Gus jumped over the broom several times this morning while I was sweeping the kitchen, does this mean we are married?
And in other earthshattering news: there was a fly in the house the other night!!!!
Yes, a fly. Gasp. Doing it's thing, flying about and landing here and there.
This is a huge event in the life of two kittens.
By the time I finally joined in the hunt, with a chair to stand on and a rolled up piece of newspaper to swat with, curtains were askew, the gold mirror was almost taken off the wall and Gus, my new husband(?) was hanging over the top of the rather large flat screen TV.
Who knew?
Me thinks it's going to be an exciting summer.
Fabulous photo and loved the "new husband" line . . .
ReplyDeleteYes, it sound like you most definitely are in for some exciting times. I am still laughing over the images stirred by the "fly chase". Have a good weekend. Bonnie
ReplyDeleteI think Gus has been 'courting' you with his acrobatics since before GG left. Congratulations. What's your china pattern?
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a bird pattern!
DeleteMore than married...slave for life!
ReplyDeleteOh God, so true.
DeleteFlies are the cheapest thrills around for cats, and never seem to lose their appeal. Can cause serious household damage, though!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the mowing saga, living as I do with a lawn expert. Dinner table talk tends to focus frequently on scarifying and hollow-tining....
You are so funny...you know it's the little things in life that make it interesting!
ReplyDeleteIt's your cats's sacred duty to protect you from houseflies and moths. Plus they are tasty, apparently.
ReplyDeleteHow did you know about the moth?
DeleteAnd crickets from the basement! Though they do tend to play soccer with the detached body parts...
DeleteThink they might have seen this? www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpHpm_b0vRY
ReplyDeleteOMG I thinl Simon must have a web cam in my house! And the TV tipping over? My total fear.
DeleteInteresting and exciting - for sure. Good thing you have such protectors around.
ReplyDeleteFlies, moths and....crickets! Cats love crickets and particularly like to pull their legs off one at a time :(
ReplyDeleteDo either of the kittens chatter during their insect pursuits?
That's such a great picture! Aji has had a ball with a couple of ants that got in the house--endlessly fascinating...Gus would look dashing in a tux.
ReplyDeleteIf Petco only had bridal registration.
ReplyDeleteThey don't? They will soon, i bet I start a trend!
DeleteYou have me LOL Jane :-) Happy new week!
ReplyDeleteMadelief x
Ha love the photo of your kitties after the fly... it's going to be a very amusing Summer... - perhaps you should nail down all the pictures on the walls?! X
ReplyDeleteGood point!
DeleteThese are indeed auspicious signs! I love the photo of the kittens. Xx
ReplyDeleteLOL loved the images this conjured up!!
ReplyDeleteYep, definitely married - it's for life... :)
