cattales.

in my condo, there is a sliding glass door that leads to the backyard. often times, there will be small bugs that collect by the window. maybe to seek some shade from this awful heat… who knows why, really?

today, i noticed what appeared to be a small earthworm by the back door rug. as i got closer, i realized it was a lizard tail. still moving. and my cat, yoshimi – always closeby – was low to the ground in hunting mode, his tail wildly swinging about. i scooped up my pet, opened the back door and a large blue lizard (minus one tail) went scurrying on his way.

predator yoshimi strikes again!

today.

i have had ridiculous fun with my new journal today. i’ll post some of my “creative chaos” when i get around to scanning it.

after two hours or so, i decided to take a break. i got up, smelling like fire (read: the “burn this page” assignment) and my hands covered in pink, purple and blue magic marker ink and walked outside. i’m not sure why i do this, but i always look up at the sky when i’m taking a walk. i love that it never looks the same. today, the clouds were doing this rippling pattern across the sky. it seemed as if they were making their own art, which left me smiling.

also, my cats. waiting at the window.
