i walked to the purple onion to read, and got caught in a downpour on the way back. it never ever rains that hard in portland. when i got home the cats were tearing around the house attacking each other and inanimate objects (as usual). mina wouldn't stop pouncing on nothing on gabe's floor so i kicked them out and shut the door. i need to be dry and quiet.

oh my, there are so many insects in this room.
