It's been uncomfortably hot the last few days. I wish you guys could see me now; it'll be good for a laugh. I'm dressed in a neon yellow tank top, a knee-length jeans skirt, and I've got my hair put up really messily, with strands and chunks falling every which way. Well, whatever's comfortable.

Couple of days ago we gave our cat a bath. lol, what a day! My parents were so funny, crooning to him in Arabic. "Oh, you're a good boy! Who's a good boy? Yes, you! Youyouyou! You're Daddy's boy aren't you? Awww!" and he's in their my dad's arms looking like an (adorable) petrified rat. Or maybe like Puss in Boots big eyes in Shrek. Mom handed him to me and he was, of course, sopping wet. Got me drenched, but I didn't mind. Cooled me off a bit.

My Mom and I watched Dead Poet's Society yesterday. Wow what a movie!! I cried. It made sense that the dead boy killed himself shirtless and with Puck's crown on, and it made sense that his roomate went into the snow and called it so beautiful. Both looking for a way and word to describe their emotions. Tears were streaming down my eyes at this scene and at the end where the guys got up on their desks to salute him with "O Captain My Captain."

Well, guess that's all for now. Thanks for reading.

    Dead Poets Society made me bawl too. It's one of my favorite movies, but I won't watch it again because - tending towards depression - it makes me depressed.
    When are you going to post a pic of yourself?

    Countess ~ You really want me to? Ok, I'll try to do it in my next blog post, hopefully this weekend . And yeah, DPS probably made its way into my favorites as well but I really don't think I'll be watching it again any time soon.
    Mtpspur ~ My Mom researched on the internet how to give a cat a bath. She learned to put some fabric into the tub that his claws can grab on to. Also, don't run the water while you're bathing him so that the waternoise doesn't scare him. Fill buckets of water before you start so you have water to pour over him. He'll still be frightened and want to get out, but he's easier to control and isn't so traumatized afterward. hope that helps!

    dead poet's society, that's one of my favorites too! "I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately...", in the end standing on their desks was a sign that the members of the dead poet's had done just that. as far as cat bathing goes, i say let cats wash themselves, they do a good job, no? meow?

    Yes, Dead Poets was great indeed. I smiled at your cat bath adventures. Animals are really funny when you try to do such things to them ... I won't even go on with how Pepper looks/acts/feels about her bath time....
