She's so sweet! Little gray with white belly & paws, soft, medium-hair, and tiny little high-pitched "mew!" She's been coming around for awhile, and this morning, her pretty little soakedness decided to meet me at the bottom of the stairs. Inside the house. *melts*
She's so affection-starved - Pete was sitting on the porch, all not paying attention but paying attention, and he made a little "you can come up if you dare" motion, and suddenly she was in his lap. And then laying on his chest getting petted. *melts*
2 things:
- We already have too many cats.
- I'm not naming her! (The black that got killed I'd codenamed Mercutio. That was dumb. Stupid hindsight.) And even if I were thinking of naming her, Ophelia would be a really bad one, in spite of her soaked appearance this morning. Yes! All Shakespearian tragedies are out as name sources. Maybe Viola - she survived her watery ordeals just fine.
If she's still around after work, we're going to check for a microchip. But it kind of looks like someone decided to move away without her. *cries*
If I get my hands on that person - *stabbity*

That has such people in't!"
There's irony in that, because in the play, she's looking at Gonzalo (I believe) at the time, who is actually rather ugly. But later she meets Ferdinand, who truly is a looker. This tiny friendly one obviously loved people, who abandoned her, but has lucked out in finding 'such people' as yourselves in't.

Date: 2005-08-31 09:30 am (UTC)Well we named some of the fish.
They died.
We named some more.
They died.
We named most of the remaining ones.
They died.
There was one fish left. The one we never named. We decided naming them was cursing them, so we wouldn't name it. We would talk about it though. Is that Nameless Fish still alive? Yep. Someone feed the Nameless Fish today? Soon this became Nameless. It was soon after we realized that the absence of a name had become the name. The fish was being named Nameless. It then died.
Moral? Humans name things by habit. You will end up calling it sth, might as well be a better name than "Nameless."
