The weather man and woman
 on my favorite channel
have been speaking for a week
or more of thehigher pollen count
this spring due to our mild winter this year. 
Summer like temps predicted for the next
week.           Time will tell …
so will our noses. 
.
Ah-choo ! Spring = lots of tissues.

Bianca sound asleep in a bookcase behind the television.

.

I cannot believe I have had to outwit a cat
to get this photo.
 

She has been angry at me
for some reason
known only to her.
When I
came home today she was in
this same book-
case, lengthwise,
using a box of computer
paper for a pillow. 
The minute I noticed her in the bookcase,
grabbed my camera, her head popped up

like something out of a Stephen King movie.
She has watched me like a hawk … if I
picked up the camera, and Bianca saw me
do it,  she would jump down
and run to the
kitchen !

Now that it is dark out, …this has gone on
since one PM, except for one hour when
I wasn’t home… it’s now after 8 PM.
I had to turn a light
towards the
bookcase that is behind the tv, to be sure
I could get the photo !
The light turned towards Bianca was sensed
by her, so she HAD to clean her paws and tail
studiously…
I finally
got the photo,
Bianca sensed it ten seconds too late.
As she lifted her head,
turned her sleep blurry
eyes at me
, I casually
waved, turned and sat
in my chair. 

Can’t believe I’ve turned into one of
THOSE PEOPLE that I used to think were silly
thinking that an animal could think, feel emotions
and outsmart them.
Sigh.  Big Sigh.
