Obladi Sightings & Other Goings-Ons

We locked the cats inside the weekend we left for Tyler & Melissa's wedding. Four days outside alone was a little much, mainly because I'm sure they would've run out of food early in day two, what with all our little furry woodland creatures out and about and starving. Anyhow, Obladi was not happy about it when we got back and she all but rocketed out that door and didn't show her face again for a couple weeks. Well into a month and we hadn't seen our little calico, but then by chance we went round the longway home one day and saw her rolling around in our "neighbors" driveway. Laura popped out and ran right over to try and pet her and maybe coerce a visit home.

This guy already doesn't like us (long story short, he invited us to his family's July 4th party but we couldn't go, it was right after we moved in and we were quite busy, so now he hates us) and now he finds out the cat belongs to us. He said his wife was feeding her and named her Cali. Original. Laura informed him that her real name was in fact Obladi and that she was in fact pregnant. Awesome. I think the next day they stopped feeding her because she's been coming around quite a bit lately.

Good news. Thought we lost another one to the wilderness.

Other than that, another failed attempt at yard grooming yesterday.

Couldn't get either the chainsaw or the weedwacker started. I've decided we live in a black hole that doesn't allow for gas-powered lawn tools to operate. Laura think's I wronged a witch or a wizard in my past and I'm cursed. That must be it. So instead we went inside and had a few drinks and listened to music.

I don't remember going to bed.
