Nekko (left) & Fred (right). Hopefully the beginning of something beautiful.
They've been growing accustomed to each over these many months and I've watched them work out ranking and hierarchy in their own feline way. But having known Nekko since she was discovered in a garbage dump at a month or two of age, over these past 10 years 'cranky' is a better 'c' adjective than 'cuddly' when it comes to describing her. With the exception of when I take a nap in a prone position. In this case, she uses me as a hammock everytime and that, to the untrained eye, might be misconstrued as cuddly (and not manipulative). Needless to say I was surprised, neigh, SHOCKED to find Nekko sitting next to Fred on the couch with their butts touching. I don't know what it says about me that I immediately documented this moment with both my camera and my iPhone, archiving it as perhaps a good omen of things to come.
This (modified) ad for the Benjamin Button movie is gone from our subway stop now but I still think about it, probably more than I should:
Of course the part that makes it hilarious to me is the fact that it's a curious case. It's probably not as funny as I am acting, but I cannot help myself.
Post Script: continuing on my love of obscure web URLs and the like, here is my defense of this new one. Originally I thought up the tag line as the blog title, but it was too long for the URL; 'rabbit' is 'lapin' in French (LAPiN); J-P Sartre is French and thus the blog's name was born. If you couldn't follow my train of thought, welcome to my world where I am usually the only one inside on all my inside jokes. Thus things like namidotcom.org (look up nami.org or nami.com if you wanted to know where that URL originated). Sometimes I think if you opened the top of my head up, spring loaded snakes might fly out.
Or maybe I'm simply suffering from a curious (but acute) case of Jamin Butt.
