looked horribly bright on my camera, but looks good on the monitor.
anyway, i had to get a pic of kitten in balu's bed. she follows me everywhere, including to the bathroom. every night when i get out of the shower, she's sitting and staring at the door. last night, both cats were there. :)
since i use the computer in balu's room, she ends up following me here too. balu doesn't seem to mind too much (as long as she doesn't sleep on his sheets!). this pic was so that he could rest and relax well on his vacation knowing that kitten is happy.
how cute is she?
oh yeah, i can get her to do the paw thing from ACROSS THE ROOM NOW, just by talking to her. she may be a bum cat, but she sure does like me. :)
I'm Stacey. I'm a 31(!)-year-old Wisconsin girl living in sunny South Florida. The highlights in my life are my lovely boyfriend, my aloof cats, my adorable/adoring stepdogs, my two lumbering tortoises, select family members, being outside, being underwater, taking pictures, yadda yadda. Stay tuned for lots of babbling!
A small boy lived by the ocean. He loved the creatures of the sea, especially the starfish, and he spent much of his time exploring the seashore.
One day the boy learned there would be a minus tide that would leave the starfish stranded on the sand.
When the tide went out, he went down to the beach, began picking up the stranded starfish, and tossing them back into the ocean.
An elderly man who lived next door came down to the beach to see what the boy was doing. Seeing the man's quizzical expression, the boy paused as he approached. "I'm saving the starfish!" the boy proudly declared.
When the neighbor saw all of the stranded starfish he shook his head and said: "I'm sorry to disappoint you, young man, but if you look down the beach, there are stranded starfish as far as the eye can see. And if you look up the beach the other way, it's the same. One little boy like you isn't going to make much of a difference."
The boy thought about this for a moment. Then he reached his small hand down to the sand, picked up another starfish, tossed it out into the ocean, and said: "Well, I sure made a difference for that one!"
