Crashing the boards :)
On a Friday eve, when its time to party, mum n dad are sitting around and playing a board game. It takes only 30 mins or so before my ADD kicks in and I need attention...hello!
Its actually fun to see their reaction after i break up a game of Backgammon or Scrabble. Oops...

Winning...
I got a feeling, tonight's going to be a good good night...8 PM.
Quoting CNN
"A historic $640 million jackpot is up for grabs Friday as the Mega Millions lottery is living up to its name.
The multistate jackpot has grown to become the largest ever offered that could be won by an individual(cat or dog). It has captivated the nation, has caused long lines at convenience stores and has many dreaming of creative ways to quit their jobs if they get the lucky numbers."
I'm gonna be one rich kitty and will buy me a country full of mice and little birds and little ponds of fish. Stay tuned folks!
Sunday Update - Let's just say "things didn't go as planned, i'm still here" :(

Palanquin Bearers
Here's a real palanquin
and here's mine
A broken laundry basket! Serves the purpose though, mum n dad take me on a luxurious ride around the house.
A beautiful poem to go with the post

Palanquin Bearers
Lightly, O lightly we bear her along,
She sways like a flower in the wind of our song;
She skims like a bird on the foam of a stream,
She floats like a laugh from the lips of a dream.
Gaily, O gaily we glide and we sing,
We bear her along like a pearl on a string.
Softly, O softly we bear her along,
She hangs like a star in the dew of our song;
She springs like a beam on the brow of the tide,
She falls like a tear from the eyes of a bride.
Lightly, O lightly we glide and we sing,
We bear her along like a pearl on a string.
She sways like a flower in the wind of our song;
She skims like a bird on the foam of a stream,
She floats like a laugh from the lips of a dream.
Gaily, O gaily we glide and we sing,
We bear her along like a pearl on a string.
Softly, O softly we bear her along,
She hangs like a star in the dew of our song;
She springs like a beam on the brow of the tide,
She falls like a tear from the eyes of a bride.
Lightly, O lightly we glide and we sing,
We bear her along like a pearl on a string.

No Catatouille at our place!
Couple of days back, my folks were discussing that their Italian friends were coming over for the evening.
I ran as fast I could and hid in the closet for the next several hours. My parents thought it was strange behavior and that I was being rude to our guests.
IMHO, pasta and cat don't pair well :)

Trust me, there's a good reason for my reservations. Couple of years back, this was all over the news. Celebrity Italian Chef, 'Beppe' Bigazzi was fired from a TV show for mentioning a cat recipe, yeah you heard it, a Cat recipe on the air!!

Evening Walk of Shame
My folks insist that the only way I get to go for a walk in the evening is on a leash. They are afraid 'imaginary' coyotes are going to get me. I really don't like it a whole lot, but once i get out.. i don't mind it.
Seeing all the spoiled canines going for a walk and birds making a cacophony before dozing off in the trees is a nice way to kick off the evening. People laugh at us all the time and tell mom that
she really needs to get a dog...Really folks?? That sounds so stupid to me!
And oh, the other frequent question is, 'Where does he go?' Duh.. a toilet, well ok, not really a toilet but a litter box in the toilet. We felines know to keep things clean, sorta.

Lessons in killing time
Over the years, I have practiced and acquired some essentials skills for passing the time without getting all stressed out.
Here are some:
Watching water drip from a faucet
Keeping tab on the local bird population
Catching water drip from a faucet
Watching the moon drift across the night sky
Getting wet in the shower, dry off and repeat the cycle till you drop totally exhausted
Watching animal planet
Browsing the web with dad :)

Halloween..It's Pumpkin time
This past Halloween, mom and I carved a Kitty pumpkin. She did the carving and I did the scratching and ate some of the delicious pulp. It turned out OK, check it out..
Mom and dad also carved an Angry Birds one as part of a Block-carving party. It was noisy, but everyone seemed to have a good time. Here's a pic of the Block pumpkins

Its a bird...Its a bird!
I'm tired of hearing that my hunting skills are average at best and all I can catch is a lizard or the occasional butterfly. I'm mindful of the need to conserve our bird population and CHOOSE not to kill birds. Anyway, i was getting sick of the negative rap and had to put it to rest, sorry birdie. It won't happen again.

Lizzy from couple of days back
No animals were harmed in the making of this video, he was just playing dead. Ran away when mom distracted me.
Yoga..it's good for the mind and body
I have learnt one asana so far, the Shav-asana. Pretty intense stuff.

Good kitty.. bad kitty
I can't help play with a hapless lizard, as much as my parents hate it.. i love giving the lizards a hard time
. The little ones are too good to pass up, i gobble them up and let go of the older ones .. minus their tails. I swear, i never fell for that one - "here's my wiggly tail, while i get away". Somehow my parents never seemed to develop an appetite for lizards. They chide me and lock me up, next thing i know the lizard has made a safe getaway, thanks to them.

| Pretty cool, how this one turned from a Green.. |

| to a Black, the wonders of nature! |
