Emo Cat

The Hubby piled a stack of my quilt books on a desk by the window so that the gato could peer outside in comfort.  Before this she was standing up on her paws to look outside and it was a little pathetic.  She sits and stares out the window during the 5 or 10 minutes out of the day that she's not sleeping.  The Hubby and I get a kick out of watching the cat at the window - she always seems so moody.  We enjoy imagining the emo haikus that are going through her mind while she stares outside:

lonely cat trapped in the house

I just want freedom

and maybe to kill a bird

She's probably can't create poetry in her tiny little head, but it cracks me up to imagine it anyway.  In fact, the picture of her should probably be in black and white - to reflect her mood.

 

It's possible that I find this entertaining because I've been working too hard and spending most of my time trapped in an office.  Sadly, I have not been out to the Cherry Blossom festival this year which is terrible since I hear it's great this year.  I did go last year though, so feel free to travel back in time if you'd like to see some photos!

I'm off to try and get some embroidery in before I hit the hay!  Hope everyone is having a lovely Spring!

Love the Emo cat. I always thought I sensed a touch of melancholy in her eyes when she turned on me and scratched the heck out of my arms.

She was younger then.  She turned her rage outward.  Now she is much more thoughtful.  Hey, do you have any awesome scars from that cat attack?  I bet its a great conversation starter in the biker bars!
