"Should I Stay"

"If I Lie?"

I'm watching Mootchie coordinate the obstacle course that is our mantle. How does he weave his lithe body in between the objects that adorn the 'said' mantle? He knocks them down of course! Our living room floor is constantly decorated with pieces that belong on the bookshelf or the mantle. Pagles doesn't really knock things down as he does "gnaw" on them. If they happen to fall, well, it's just a consequence of a tasty indulgence.

I went swimming today. In a pool, not the ocean. The ocean kind of scares me now, what with all of it's deadly creatures. That would be a consequence of watching Animal Planet. Thanks Mom! 

Unfortunately, my swimming time ended with painful results. There are pictures! The pain is never too intense to work a camera!! When it first happened there were crazy purple streaks all down my shin, but once the swelling started, the purple went away. It's still pretty sore. The open wounds don't hurt at all actually, it's my shin that's very tender. If I don't move it for prolonged periods of time, it really hurts. I was goofing around on the ladder in the pool and scrapped my leg. Not something cool like doing backflips off of the diving board, darn it.

While I was putting antiseptic on my foot, I managed to snap a few shots of Luna. Oh yeah, and of the jumping spider that was dangling from the ceiling. Caught in a glass and let it go outside.
