Curious about my Libations
I don't really drink...well, not really. I just have this unusual habit of drinking from the faucet.
I always ask for it to be turned on, "Meow". The nice lady understands me the best. Then I lap the fresh water...it tastes the best that way. I sometimes forget to ask her to turn it off.
We have a person coming in to lay down tile in certain places around the house. This has provided me unending entertainment.
His dowel goes in half circles all around...half circles all around...again and again. I watch every movement with such expectation and interest. The man accused me of being the "Inspector". Not me! I'm just his audience!

Lily vs. the Snake
Hah, to be outside... the smells, the dirt...roll in the dirt...then lie there...Ah...
WAIT! What was that movement? This requires additional investigation on my part. Not a toy. PREY! I will toy with it for a while. Pat..Pat..Jump BACK! It is hissing at me! Hair up on my spine...Swat, Pat, Swat. Hiss... the snake turns to make a get away.
It slithers into the wire fence and stops. It's half through and stuck! Pat...pat...the tail. The head of the snake on the other side hisses and stands up. Pat...pat...the tail. This is fun and interesting. Is it going to do anything else?
The tail goes limp. I bite it. Pat...pat...it's not doing anything. (playing dead). Is it going to do anything else?
The nice lady is calling my name. She wants me to come in. "NOT NOW! I'm busy!" The nice man comes out twice. He wants me to come in. "Can't! I'm occupied!" After 3 attempts to get me in, he suddenly realizes the focus of my attention. DARN! That's it. Game over. I'm inside.
I make several attempt to gain access again outside, but am not successful. I see the nice people running around -- in and out -- with wire cutters attempting to free my prey! NO! leave it there! I'll get back to it...It may do something else! I'll miss it. DARN! They take away the only good fun I've had all week. (Last week it was a lizard.)
