EXCERPTS FROM A CAT'S DIARY

Day 983 of my captivity:

My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength. The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an attempt to disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet. Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates what I am capable of. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a "good little hunter" I am. Bastards! There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of "allergies." I must learn what this means, and how to use it to my advantage. Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow -- but at the top of the stairs. I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches. The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released - and seems to be more than willing to return. He is obviously retarded. The bird has got to be an informant. I observe him communicate with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe. For now...

because i like this kind of stuff...

My baby girl...

isn't quite a baby anymore. she is now a full-blown toddler/teenager. it's like the worse combination ever. she is two in human years and 14 in doggy years.

i've tried to give her a great birthday. she got a couple of huge rawhide bones (which entertain her for hours), took her to the park to play with her friend Lucy and a pug and a chocolate lab showed up too, so it was a huge party, she had some cottage cheese mixed into her birthday dinner, two of her aunties are stopping by to visit, play, and rub her, and her favorite Auntie Meg is bring her a doggy birthday cake from ATL on Saturday! shew. i hope it all makes her happy!

Happy Birthday, Maeby! I love you!

First dance

This is my favorite "first dance" dance. It's fun, they are really good, and they are super cute! Love it.

No worries, Chris. I'm not going to ask you to do this...

Thankful for...

Just about everyone in my family (extended as well) is an amazing cook.

For that, I am so very, very thankful!

Happy Thanksgiving

Enjoy your family, friends, and blessings!

Over the past weekend, when I was in Raleigh, I caught some of the V Festival at Robert's house.

Some of it was so good, I felt compelled to share:

Dear Lily,
I think you are cool. And I'm not just saying that. You're bad-a and I could really use, appreciate, and enjoy a friend like you - what do you say? Yes?



Same goes for you, Lady Gaga... I love your style, attention to detail, and your voice is good, really good. You are our Madonna. Let's hang out?

I fixed it.

I don't know why the link to the knot wedding page wasnt working in an earlier post... but that has been fixed and you can view the site HERE!!

Wedding

I attempted to make a wedding blog to publish any ideas, thoughts, or likes in general that I had related to my wedding; however, I'm pretty slack when it comes to transferring my thoughts/likes from my brain to that particular blog.

That was a lousy preface, but I wanted to share my The Knot Wedding website with everyone. It still needs a few updates and additions, but those will come with time. Until then...

ENJOY!!

It''s offcial...

I am currently getting my very first dose of Christmas as I type! The Raleigh Christmas Parade is on television and it makes me so happy!

I guess this isnt completely true. I was in Crabtree on Thursday and the place was decorated to the T AND i saw Santa himself!

I love Christmas season.
