When you're special to a cat, you're special indeed. He brings to you the gift of his preference for you - for the sight of you, the sound of your voice, the touch of your hand. And then after 3.2 minutes, he bites you. Then he slinks away with a quick jerk of his tail as if he's made your life better with just his nearness to you. And yes. Yes, he has.

I recently completed a Photoshop class, and as much as I hate to admit it, I learned very little because my attention span is about as flexible as an old rubber band. But I did manage to create a thing of at least minimal beauty. When I was probably 4 or 5, I was on a local TV show called The Sargeant Mills Show. It was about a police officer who interviewed a bunch of kids sitting on bleachers. When he got to me he asked what my favorite flower was. My answer was "pansies, because they have faces on them." I can't explain the reasoning behind that answer; after all, I was a weird little kid who slept with a huge, sticky, rubber monkey, and always had to dance or do cheers for the purpose of entertaining company (at 25 cents a pop). I was no more normal then than I am now, but who decides what normal is, anyway? This post spans a multitude of totally unrelated topics, but the original intent was to show off my pretty pansies. You're welcome.
I was sent this video via e-mail today and I usually delete these
because I don't want to take the time out of my 'busy' day to watch. But for some reason, I watched this one and tears came to my eyes. I don't know if it was because it was so touching, or because it made me realize what a quitter I really am sometimes. Anyhoo, watch if you have 3 minutes and 15 seconds to spare.

AuthorMy name is Lori. It rhymes with Story. How lucky is that... But seriously, this blog is probably not read by anyone, and I use it mainly as a place to post things that come to my mind, or things that amaze me in some way, or pictures of things that I come across in my few travels to here and there. Plus, I do post book reviews here because it's required in order for me to remain in the book review bloggers program. Other than that, I can't imagine there would be anyone actually interested in what I have to say or share, but it's here should that ever happen! Archives
