New Song that is Actually New

Here’s a song from the aborted album in a day I tried on the day that the bathroom remodeling project started. I mixed it with ear buds so I’m sure it sounds like dung.

I don’t like the lyrics and I don’t like the melody in the verses. What do you think, is the rest of it worthy of bringing to the band? I’m undecided.

Thoughts

I just stepped outside to go pick up take out dinner for my mother. It was about 6:50pm, it was dark, it was drizzling, and it was 48 degrees.

Screw you, Fall. I want my summer back.

I haven’t been home yet tonight so I don’t know if the abandoned cat has made an appearance or not. I hope so. I put food out yesterday, but it didn’t look like any had been eaten. I did see a squirrel stalking the front walk way once but it stayed away.

Not Giving Up

I’m not ready to call it quits yet.  I put out fresh food and water, and I put it under our awning so the abandoned cat can hang out when the rain comes back.

I still have hope, even if it’s fleeting.  Come visit me, little abandoned kitty. 

 

Another Cat Update

The cat lives!  I went out for a minute and drove past the box.  The cat was there!  It survived the night.  I pulled over and it didn’t run away.  I got out of the car and took a few steps and then it ran away.  At least I know it’s still there.

When I came home she was in the neighbor’s yard.  I walked up, she ran a short way away.  I walked closer, she went a few more strides away.  Then again, then again, then she was in the woods and I couldn’t see her anymore.

Hopefully the bobcats and the Hawks and the owl and the foxes and all the other predators will leave our little cat friend alone.

One additional note, when I went out to the car I saw the cat at the foot of the back steps.  At least I thought it was the cat.  Nope.  It was a skunk.  It didn’t see me.  I think it heard me and it went under the car.  I saw that, and then I heard it walking though the leaves on the other side of the car.  I knew it was gone.  I knew it.  But I still waited a few minutes before I went out to the car.

Cat Update

No news on the abandoned cat. Still missing in action.

When I got home two of my neighbors were scoping out the scene. I told them what seems to have happened and they were both just as upset as Jen and I were last night. Two more neighbors joined us so the word is spreading. There will be a lot of people in the neighborhood keeping an eye out for a little lost cat.

The food we left out still hasn’t been touched. One of the neighbors was walking her dog when we were talking and the dog partook of a few sips of water. Other than that, nothing.
