odd kitty behavior

Last Friday our cat, Miss Swarley, had been alone most of the day. I did not get home and stay there until around 10 pm. We were waiting for "daddy" to come home and she starts being all cute with her tongue hanging out.








The next morning she had been not so cute.



Let's just say I had pre-unrolled toilet paper for the next 3 days.

A few days later she decides that a freshly laundered pair of khaki pants would make for a good place to sit. She seriously, will not budge.




Then yesterday she plays "fraidy cat" during the rain and hides under our wine table the whole time. Here she has finally emerged from hiding.



Swarley is a pretty good cat and she is never really a huge problem. I guess you just accept cats as they are with all their little quirks and moods.

Race for the cure

This weekend was the Race for the Cure in Bricktown. It is quite an amazing social event and supports a wonderful cause. I was on a team with several people from my gym, Fit for Her and Bob was with a team from the College of Pharmacy. It was a great experience.

I had a hard time concentrating on running because I kept reading the backs of people's shirts and seeing their loved ones they were honoring. So emotional!

If you want to ignore your emotions (like I tried to) check this out...



Me running



Hope that makes your day! Such unflattering pictures, just proving to everyone my non-athleticism. I foresee a dramatic decline in my readers after putting you through that.

weekend fun

This weekend we were in Texas, but it wasn't because of a football game... and luckily we flew and didn't have to drive through Dallas traffic.

Actually, we got to go to Houston to visit Bob's parents. A weekend is never enough time to spend with them, there's always so much to do. This time we went over to the Kemah boardwalk and ate sea food at Landry's right by the water. The weather was very atypical for Houston, it was not humid and around 75 degrees.

Saturday evening we were able to enjoy the evening sitting around a fire in the backyard.




It was nice seeing the Sooners win while in the great state of Texas. My condolences go out to the Longhorns. It's okay Texas, you still win... for having big malls...
