  • 08.05.06 This Water is Most Unacceptable. posted in nora, the cats

    It would seem that the Wolfe family has been so busy tending the needs of young miss Nora that they have wholly forgotten to clean out our water dish. Sure, it is a technological wonder with its recycling action and filter, but it hardly removes all the dirt from the water. At this very moment, there are no less than three dead insects floating where we drink. Granted, they are very small insects, and they are trapped in a constant eddy near the suction point of the recycling pump.

    Until this matter is resolved, I intend to partake of the tub faucet water. It’s always cold and always clean. The only drawback is that it isn’t always flowing. I once again have to rely on a break in the child-rearing duties of Mr. and Mrs. Wolfe before I can quench my thirst.

  • 08.05.06 To the Top! posted in nature, weather

    I’m going to hike to the peak of Mt. Pike Helena today with our friends Anne and Aaron. Let’s hope it doesn’t hit 90+ degrees while we’re up there. As with the rest of the nation, it’s been god-awful hot lately. Friend-Aaron is a weatherman, so maybe he can conjur up some cool weather from the top of the mountain. There must be at least a few sacred stones up there that he can use to cast a spell or something.

    At any rate, this will be just my third time to the top of the mountain. One of my New Year’s resolutions was to hike it at least twice a month. I’m a little behind that count, eh. Oh well. The ultimate goal is to get from the bottom to the top without stopping for a breather. That’ll be nice.
