Windows

In my lovely apartment, I have many windows, but only two that actually open and only one with a screen. Why am I bringing this up? What does this have to do with KPP the subject of this blog? WELL, Kitty PotPie likes to sit in the window with the screen, really she likes to sit in any window, but she REALLY likes to hang in an open window. And I used to believe that she really wanted to go outside and that is why she sat in the window all day, but then I was talking to this girl in one of my summer classes and she was saying that her cats did the same thing and she believed that it was like their TV and that when she let them outside they freaked out. To this I said "ya ya ya, I am sure KPP will really want to hang in the outside". So when I got home that night, KPP was trying to escape into the hall so I said to myself "hmm I am going to take her to the real outside and see what she does" So I took her on the porch, instantly her claws were in my shoulder and as soon as I sat down, she jumped down and hissed and ran to my apartment, right then I knew that the girl was right and KPP likes to watch her TV, but not experience it in real life. Plus another bonus of making her go outside, is she no longer tries to escape and run up the stairs.

Here are some cute pictures of KPP in the window (with the screen).

It is like she is posing for a profile shot, she is not.











I was shocked that I actually got a shot of her not looking pissy. (yes I am crazy in the way that I believe my cat shows emotion)

Once

Tonight Annie took me to dinner (mm, mm pizza) and to see the movie "Once" to belatedly celebrate my birthday. The pizza was yummy, the company was lovely and the movie was very good. And it had lots of singing and I love singing in movies. In fact, I liked the music so much I came home and downloaded it on itunes. And since some of you maybe inclined to see "Once" I will not give anything away, but let me know what you thought of it.

And of course, your daily pictures of PotPie

I tried to get a picture of how cute she looked hanging out on her perch, but alas the flash made her eyes glow which makes her look all weird. So just imagine nice green kitty eyes instead of the lifeless eyes provided in the picture.


One of her MANY baths, also the cause of MANY hairballs. Eww gross, got one today.













And I just like this picture, even if it is slightly blurry. She just looks so dang pissy.

My fancy new panniers

So I have been riding my bike to work. I should have been riding it more, but I am pretty lazy. Anyways, I was transporting my stuff in a high-class basket that was zip-tied to my rack. It worked okay, but there was always the risk of stuff being able to fly-out when I hit the bumps.So for my birthday my mom helped me buy some fancy new panniers (aka saddle bags). As you all can see they are gray and black. They are very nice and can fit a change of clothes + jacket, a purse and my lunch box with room to spare.And of course KPP loves them. I tried for a picture of her in the bags, but I decided it was better to have non-holey panniers than a cute shot of my cat. But of course since this is a blog about Kitty PotPie here is a picture of her. Note I was trying to get a close-up on her face and she decided to investigate the camera.
This is KPP getting all embarrassed that her hair wasn't brushed.
