Hiking with Cats and Pink Eleks


I guess when people stop by your house to make sure you're still alive, it's time to unplug the computer. Dad and my Stepmom stopped by the other day doing just that, and so we went on a hike. I didn't bring my computer. I didn't turn it off, though, either.
Pheonix came with us; here he is swatting a bug, heehee. Clarence was off strutting his stuff in the neighborhood somewhere, and Lilly wanted us to stay at home with her, so she went about halfway and then started meowing. The kittens are still feral around new people so they were scarce. It was so great to get out into nature, and awesome to show my hill to people. The weather has been beautiful, sunny, not too hot, and yesterday it was foggy and also beautiful. Yesterday when it was just me hiking, all 5 kitties came along. And ALL FIVE curled up in a row on a big stump with me. It was sooo cool, cuz normally Lilly only tolerates Pheonix, who only tolerates her and Clarence, who loves everybody. This time they set aside their differences to all hang out with me- guess it had been a week (ok, or two) since I went for a forest stroll. I am so fired!
And while I am happy to say that nothing bad has happened to keep me away, I'm a little embarrassed to admit that I haven't been doing anything particularly productive , either. Though I have been making almost daily rounds on the acorn collection, mostly I've been... well... actually my 'toon has been geting sloshed at Brewfest and making the pink eleks visible.

It's bad, people. One night I only got three hours of sleep before work because I was in this hectic dungeon with a bunch of friends fighting gnarly monsters. They just added a new game feature, too, where you can talk with any player on your headset in live time. I almost typed "ur" instead of "your" because its game slang. But hey, you know, sometimes I'm EVEN SERVING MY COUNTRY like today when I lent an ear to a real live deployed sodier who just needed to talk. I told him that even though I'm green party, he's a hero and he rules. He was stoked 'cause I guess sometimes when he comes home people give him crap, how messed up is that. Save the crap for Bush, I say. Ok that's not really serving my country by playing a game hahaha but, hey, I did help a soldier, even if I just cheered him up a little.
Anyway, once when I was a kid I ate an entire bag if reeses peanut butter cups, and I never ate one again, sooooo I think I'm a little overdosed on game now, heeehee. And if you can't tell by my running on and on, I missed this. I can't say I'll never play again, but I think I'm going to stop ignoring my peeps, my kitties, and my exersize, haha. Except I think I totally missed dinner at my Dad's yesterday because I was in a dungeon and then my brother-in-law and his wife AND friends stopped by and I had to interact with people not just in real time but in game TOO. Wow. I am such a dork. And did I mention I'm fired?
Ah well. Good thing I'm also an egomaniac. :P

I think my husband is very jealous of your game-a-thon. Glad to hear you're alive :)

Yea Hermitgirl!

So good to read your lines again. The wars in cyberworld will be there another day. I can't believe your photo of Phoenix. I'm pretty sure it was a bee that he was swatting at. He is better on a walk than most dogs I've known. He sorta waits until you get ahead a bit, then races past a few feet, stopping until you walk by, then racing ahead again, never leaving the path. Sometimes as he runs by he (purposely, I think) runs right over your feet. Something else.

What a beautiful afternoon on your hillside. Who knew it was so steep! What a climb...up and up...to a knife-edge ridge, the sun and lovely peaceful views. Good way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

Thank you.

If you haven't already, click on the photo of Phoenix to enlarge it. You can see the bee flying in front of him. He was swatting at it as he climbed up and down the branch.

Way too cool Hermitgirl.

(Can you email me the photo of us?)
