Bad Kitty

She looks cute doesn't she?

Uh-huh. Oh, she is. And she knows it. Walks with her tail in the air. Always. Lets us hold her...sometimes. But we let her get away with it. However, we did have to spank her pretty behind when she began pissing places other than her designated box in the basement. Her punishment was being confined to the basement for one hour. And this is the look of indignation we received shortly after her release:

It was that very night - Friday - that she became (figuratively) pissed and ran away from home. No joke. I opened the door long enough to lock up the car, and she was gone. Priss and I called, and called, and called for two days. No kitty. So this am around 8, I went out onto the porch to try again. There she sat, in the corner, looking both afraid and humbled.... and quite disheveled. After all, the long haired princess hadn't been out of doors in 5 years. So we brought her in, made sure that she had plenty to eat and drink and combed the burs out of her underfur. She is still acting kind of pitiful, but I think she's okay:

Thank gawd she returned. Priss was beginning to believe that she was a curse to all animal life. Hopefully all balance is restored. Currently, the big, furry princess is pouting in the basement, Priss is busy shredding a month's worth of credit card offers for me, and I am preparing the supplies for her first day of school....which is tomorrow. July 31. (Which is just wrong, btw, but that is another post...)

As Promised

And only a month late... Not bad for me! A bit pixelated, but best I could do to keep the file size down, given I am still using Priss's machine, and I still don't have my beloved pic-formatting software.

This would make a great seven dwarfs go men in black theme, but we got too tall on the end messing up the height pre-req, and we got numba seven awol, disinterested... steps away on the air conditioned side of the hotel room, getting some lap action from a Southern belle. (Oh yeah, got that pic too. That's for later, though.)

Here's the suits:

Aren't they lovely? I must admit, I was enjoying the scenery. Not the brightest of occasions, but nice to see that the little devils can be handsome when they want to be. Of course they did bitch and moan during the photo shoot; couldn't wait to get their bum asses into their street clothes. (As evidenced Exhibit V, above left.) But it was nice while it lasted.

footnote: If you are not in this picture - Cat! - it is not because you were underdressed. It is because you weren't in the frikkin parking lot when I dared to pull out the camera! I wasn't my typical shutterbug self, but if only I could share a mental image or two...
