mood: excited music: macha: "cat wants to be dog"

in other news, the windows were open much of the day today, and all of last night! now looking outside is truly fabulous in and of itself, but smelling and hearing outside too? WOWZA! it's almost more excitement than this gal can handle!

mood: quixotic music: the sugarcubes: "cat!"

now de-clawing is another topic all together, one i'm sure i will tackle when the wide expanse of floor isn't beckoning.

mood: productive music: siouxsie: "catwalk"

now i know this pic is good. probably the best i've ever had taken. i was thinking of submitting it for the "amateurs" page in "Playcat" magazine. but i have decided to put my prurient interests aside and enter myself as a "mixed breed" in the next national cat show. at least we might get some cash for that. someone around here needs to be bringing it in!

mood: enthralled music: the cure: "lovecats"

the past few days have been mostly uneventful. the most excitement came last week when the creature the humans refer to as "lapsang" came to the house. now this creature, who seems to be a female of whatever her species is, has been over before, but we have usually steered clear of one another. miss lapsang was a little bolder this time and engaged me in conversation. she has some truly fascinating ideas about the potential war on iraq and "no blood for SUVs," and has been involved in many "barking demonstrations" in her neighborhood. now this makes me feel a little insecure about my own distanced political involvement. while I do keep up with the news much more than other members of this household, I still tend to do nothing about it but ponder and philosophize. what's a cat to do?
