The Throne
When God Made Cats

When God made the world, He chose to put animals in it, and decided to give each whatever it wanted.
All the animals formed a long line before His throne, and the cat quietly went to the end of the line.
To the elephant and the bear He gave strength, to the rabbit and the deer, swiftness; to the owl, the ability to see at night, to the birds and the butterflies, great beauty; to the fox, cunning; to the monkey, intelligence; to the dog, loyalty; to the lion, courage; to the otter, playfulness.
And all these were things the animals begged of God.
At last he came to the end of the line, and there sat the little cat, waiting patiently. "What will YOU have?" God asked the cat.
The cat shrugged modestly. "Oh, whatever scraps you have left over. I don't mind."
"But I'm God. I have everything left over."
"Then I'll have a little of everything, please."
And God gave a great shout of laughter at the cleverness of this small animal, and gave the cat everything she asked for, adding grace and elegance and, only for her, a gentle purr that would always attract humans and assure her a warm and comfortable home.
But he took away her false modesty.

What is a Cat?
Gentle eyes
that see so much,
paws that have
the quiet touch.
Purrs to signal
"all is well"
and show more love
than words can tell.
Graceful movements
touched with pride,
a calming presence
by our side.
A friendship
that will last and grow -
small wonder
why we love them so.

Birthday Pix



After going to the Thai buffet, my parents and I went to see the Swan Lake in the park. Unfortunately, our seats were so lateral that we could not see well, rather, instead of seeing an arabesque penche line we saw more of a crotch shot... We're hopping to go again, this time with good seats. After the show we went to get pizza at an Italian caffe, it was good, but once again my diet was postponed for the next day, you know the story...

Loving and Liking
Long may you love your pensioner mouse,
Though one of a tribe that torment the house:
Nor dislike for her cruel sport the cat,
Deadly foe both of mouse and rat;
Remember she follows the law of her kind,
And Instinct is neither wayward nor blind.
Then think of her beautiful gliding form,
Her tread that would scarcely crush a worm,
And her soothing song by the winter fire,
Soft as the dying throb of the lyre.

Darcy's Regular Activities
Intro.
Well... I'm basicly creating this blog as a journal. My life is quite boring at the moment, but I'm hoping it will soon regain some of its former excitement.
For the time being, I'll post pictures of my cat, as she seems to the only creature having fun around here.
