You would never know summer is less than a week away because it sure doesn't feel like it.
My wood pile is being depleted daily. Don't rush with the swimsuit collection this season.

Cat's diary...
DAY
752 - My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling
objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while I am forced to eat dry
cereal. The only thing that keeps me going is the hope of escape, and
the mild satisfaction I get from ruining the occasional piece of
furniture. Tomorrow I may eat another houseplant.
