National Lazy Day




Allie: Can you push that feather a little closer, Brat? It's just out of my reach ....
Faraday: Seriouslies, Allie. After you hired Maxie to turn on his own brother?

You could do with a bit more physical activity. Get it yourself.


*cue creepy scary murder music from Psycho*
*Faraday sits paralyzed while his life flashes before his eyes ... *

(okay, well, maybe he's just sitting there...)

Allie: ... FINE.
 Then you can just find some other chair to sit in.
 OUT of my sight.

Faraday: *relieved breath* Works for me. I was just leaving ....


Allie: Hrmpf. The little plebeian obviously is unaware that tomorrow is National Lazy Day.


And what better way to observe than with one's favorite feathers?
*deep inhale* Ahhh yes, these were a lovely vintage.

Faraday: (mutters from safety of living room) ... at least she didn't reference Chianti and fava beans ....

Tomorrow is National Lazy Day!
(how do you plan to observe?)

International Cat Day #FAIL



(we join our story in progress....)

  
Faraday: This cat bed sure isn't very comfy, Allie. Good thing Mommy didn't buy it for me.
Allie: *sigh* That's my new litterbox, Brat. And I don't recall inviting you to sit inside it, either.
 

 Faraday: Well I don't see your name on it anywheres, so I think I'll just stay right here.
Allie: We'll see about that.

Faraday: ... what? That's it? No smacky-paw?



Allie: I just had my nails done, Brat. You're not worth messing up a pedicure over.
 No, that's what the hired help is for.
Faraday: Hired--- hey! Maxie?!?!


*cue well-placed nip*
Faraday: Owww! Fine, awright, it's yours, Allie. Quiddit, Maxie!


 Faraday: Why me, Maxie? I thought we were brothers and stuffs.
Maxwell: Yeah, well, dood ... Allie said she'd give me all her turns with the wand toy for a whole week.

Besides ... I'm not the one who thought a litterbox was a cat bed.

Faraday: That's cold, Maxie. Stone cold. *sniff*

You want me to work for it?

Faraday's Big Adventure


Faraday on harness, walking across deck

Faraday on alert: a squirrel!
Great White Housepanther Spies Vishus Squirl in Distance



Faraday: I don't know what all the fuss is about. Harness walking is so not a big deal ....

Maxwell: Tell that to the deaf cat stuck inside the house, dood.
