Mad Times

When we got the cat tree, this ring was hanging under one of the platforms. The cats ignored it until one day the string broke and it was suddenly horizontal, then, presto! cat bed.

Bought the red bike in the picture today. Love the Trek with the Xtracycle, but needed something more minimal for times when I don’t need to haul anything. In particular, the Xtracycle doesn’t fit on the bike racks on buses without some finagling.

The new bike proved itself right away cause I rode the bus over to Bellevue to take possession from its previous owner and brought it back on the bus. Then towed it home from the park and ride with the Xtracycle. It towed so well I had to look back a couple times just to make sure it was still back there.

Saw this just after noticing the pair in #116. You can see the pair by the curb in this picture.

Does Netflix know that the little backing strips on the adhesive flaps of their return envelopes are cat toys?

Seen in a plowdrift (is that a word? Should be.) along East Lake Sammamish Parkway on my way to meet Becky for lunch. Its mate was nearby, but not photogenic enough to post (just the wrist was sticking out of the snow. I wouldn’t have even noticed it if I hadn’t just seen the other.)

Seen Saturday along Front Street

Becky caught Alice in one of her favorite spots: deep inside the pile of fresh laundry.

It’s a landmark day for gloves. First the mural on Sunset, now Pickering Barn. I couldn’t plan this stuff.
