puppetmaker | Fall is in the air, but summer is not giving up

This morning I opened the windows to let some air through the house. The cats were very happy with me. They have their spots and are sniffing the outside world along with enjoying the sights and sounds of a place that none of them want to go.

We have three cats that have no wish to put a paw outside the house. Fig only thinks hard about it when Caroline is outside and she wants to be where her human is. All three are ferals that were domesticated. They like having food and water when they want it and a soft and safe place to nap. They get all pets and skritches. Looks like a good cat life to me.

Today is Friday the 13th and it is a full moon so my mind goes to Churchy la Femme and his fear of this day. Personally I can say that I have no problem with the date. Heck, we own a black cat. I have walked under ladders while working in theater. However I do still keep my theater superstitions like saying the Scottish Play or break a leg.

Today is going to go one of two ways. I do have an obligation at 5pm but other than that I can plan my day to get things done. It is just a matter of what things.

So I am off to do things today like pet my black cat, step on a crack, walk under a ladder, pick up a penny, and knock on wood.

I am grateful to Walt Kelly for showing me at an early age the absurdity of placing so much weight on a date on the calendar.
