Warmer weather

A sure sign of warmer weather... Waffles out in the garden in the morning
and
within minutes I hear "MMMOOOWWZZ!" quickly followed by a small dead
rodent
being dropped at my feet. Obviously she thinks I require protein for
breakfast.
Yesterday's breakfast offering was a mouse. This morning's is a shrew.

Not bad for a one-eyed cat the vet said would not be able to catch mice
again
;-)

Frank is swelling with pride over his lady, and Nikki is watering at the
mouth at the thought of fresh mowsie, or rather vole, which is what she
mainly hunts on the island. She'll have to wait another couple of months,
poor girl.

Mowsie! Hee hee.

When I was in grad school, I knew a lovely German lady who loved fancy
and flamboyant shoes. She once wore a pair of slip-on flats that were
decorated in the front to look like cat's faces, complete with
whiskers sticking out on either side.
I complimented her on them, and she said she wore them "in caze there
vere any mouzes in ze building."

Speaking of mouses, Stinky has just now shoved a catnip one behind the
computer desk, past where he can fit his round little body, and he is
rummaging his paw wildly back there, going "rrrrrrrrrrrr!
rrrrrrrrRRRRR!"

What a little character.

The vet didn't bother to tell Waffles Funny, it might be Steve
Touchtone's fault but all those storms in OK seem to be keeping the weather
cool here in West TN. It's probably only in the 60's here, which for this
time of year is unheard of. Not that I'm going to complain; it might make
for a less hot/humid summer and fewer mosquitos in my neck of the woods.

ROFL!! I would have loved to see the lady's shoes and hear her acent
and explanation. And Stinky really is a delightful character.


I posted another story about him on the B&C thread. He is such a
little goofball.

I live in Nashville, in Central Tennessee (for non-US members of the
newsgroup). It has been fairly cool here too. A common pattern here
is to be warm and humid in mid-spring, then turn cool in late spring,
and then suddenly turn hot and humid, usually in early June.

Why is it, every time I read this modified subject line, I hear an odd
version of Gloria Estefan's "Turn the Beat Around" in my head? "Turn the
mouse around... love to tease them mousies... turn 'em upside dowwwwn, love
to eat them mousies!" This is going to drive me crazy!
