Cheezgiving Day

Sunrise

Oh Lord Mishipeshu, I beseech you to listen to our prayers. We give thanks for this day of Cheezgivig. We even thank you for il Paparazzo. We know he is a bit slow, but we can forgive him for his manifold sins he has so grievously committed against us in thought, word, and deed. Hear our prayers, beloved Mishipeshu! Acat.

Jake Jail

Another Office Dog

Venus in the Tangle Heart Tree

Meet Athena, the newest member of the office dog family. If this keeps up, we will have more dogs than staff in the office. Athena is a sweet dog. Even Jake likes her, and he generally doesn’t like dogs very much as he believes he’s human (he doesn’t stick his head out the car window like most dogs). Athena has duochromatic eyes. She can give people the stink eye in technicolor.

The cats were extra cheesy this morning.

Pink Morning, Blue Day

Pre-dawn

Marble: “Why hasn’t that pathetic, lame-brained paparazzo put out any cheez for us?”

Silver: “¡Callate, Marble! Show some respect to the poor old paparazzo. He’s a little slow these days.”

Silver: “Hear me, oh Lord. I thank you for kicking our old paparazzo in the pants, reminding him to give us cheez.”

Loki: “You are such a drama queen, Silver! The old, half-wit paparazzo does not look impressed!”

A Whiter Shade of Pale

Teagan is warning young lovers, Tim and Laurie, to escape from the sinister circus before they too become a whiter shade of pale — Teagan Riordain Genevien.

Teagan had the idea for her and me to collaborate on a Halloween-themed music video. We chose “A Whiter Shade Of Pale” by Procol Harem. Teagan produced wonderful images of herself, Laurie, and me for me to use in the video, and she sounds great, as always. She wrote a really cool story to go with the video that you can read on her accompanying post at https://wp.me/p30Tpb-9R4.

Will You Be My Friend?

Pre-dawn

Jake and I went out for a walk yesterday afternoon and crossed paths the a coyote for the second day in a row. When I told Jake to sit, the coyote also sat, looking like he might like to be friends with Jake. The coyote was apprehensive, given the fact that Jake is three times larger than the coyote.

It started raining while Jake and I were on our walk. A bright rainbow came out of Shey’s tree.
