.:here kitty, kitty:.

here in italy the holiday is today... all in all it makes sense... people spend easter sunday eating more than they should, drinking more than it is wise and inhaling obscene quantities of chocolate; so it is only fair they spend the day after at home trying to understand what their digestive system is doing...

yeah, and amazingly enough I'm not included in the lot... I know, impressive, yeah? and so out of character... lol...

anyway... so today we got to enjoy a nice lunch with friends, cold meat, cheese, asparagus, polenta, and wine... ^^ (cabernet and torcolato) just something to start detoxing... ;)

one of the best things? talking, laughing, having people amuse themselves at your daughter's antics, and seeing an old friend...

an old cat friend...

I miss this troublemaker a lot... loads... more than it is fair... once in a while we get to go visit her during the day... her new human pet has made a habit of leaving the gate open so that we can get in and play with the cat... (uhum, I know... friends like that are priceless...)  most often than not the cat will see the little toddler and run a mile challenging speed limits... but when the young girl manages to control her happy outbursts the cat stays close... and it feels so good to have her again even if for just so long...

he says that we've given him a faulty cat... point in question? the animal sees a rat and is all "hmmm, yeah, cute dude... then again, why are you poking me with that thing? let me be..." but let an average house fly come into sight and she goes literally crazy, doing acrobatic jumps, twists until she can nail the fly midjump... so, maybe she is a bit uncommon... but that is the beauty of it, isn't it? uniqueness and all that crap...

yeah, normal rat killing cat would be good, I know... but hey, she is fun to watch... ;)
