A very telling insight into my thought process

[arionhunter]

Me, thinking and driving: Hmm, maybe I should do my master's thesis on Buddhism in Comics...
Sunlight: *hits windshield*
Me, in a high-pitched voice of glee: Oh. My. God. Kitty Footprints! Little kitty footprints!

This just goes to prove, no matter how much thinking I can put into grad school and worrying about my statement of purpose, I am still easily distracted by things that are small and cute.

I feel you should know that you made my girlfriend coo.

I was terribly glad that you were not in the car with me, for I never would have heard the end of it.

Little kitty footprints!

Is this the part where we go look at Buttercup's little toes together?

Re: n'awwwwwwwww

[arionhunter]

Possibly? And then you watch me poke Cat's paws and say in my best excited five-year-old voice, "Little toesies!"

KITTY TOES! Are the best, and kitty footprints right behind. :DDD

And then I can eat chicken, and she can steal your vegetables.

There was also the time where I had to reconsider peeing, because there were kitty footprints! In the toilet bowl! And I couldn't pee on them, for then they might wash away.

Sadly, my body functions won out over my love of cute small animal things.

Psh, Cat is solidly carnivorous, even if she does whine for food when I am making things with tofu and other un-meatlike substances.

Re: n'awwwwwwwww

[katarik]

And sniffs a perfectly good chicken nugget, and nibbles at it, and then wanders away to harass you for vegetables.

I would have paused to reconsider, too!

We had little white-paint kitty footprints on our floor for three years because the babycat ran through the paint pan. So.

Well, she seems to want people food in theory, on the grounds that it is something she Cannot Have, in the same way in theory I would love the ability to fly but would not love the consequences.

Re: n'awwwwwwwww

[katarik]

Sure you can fly! Just fall at the ground and miss.

[eisen]

never mind that, what were kitten footprints doing on your windshield?

[arionhunter]

Apparently one of the garbage-cats walked on my car. Cat, on the other hand, does not leave the apartment.

Rule One: there are *always* Cats.
Rule Two: they will do precisely as they please, nothing more or less.
