I started to blog again, because there are only so many cat videos a human being can watch. I'm still decorating, but wanted to welcome anyone who chooses to visit. As the metaphors percolate through my fingers, one must keep in mind that even chaos eventually calms down. Each cat handles mayhem in its own way; some panic, some fight, some don't know what the fuss is all about, some do not get involved and some have a somewhat delayed reaction. In the end peace is restored and nobody won.

Hellow! A whirlwind of cats.
ReplyDeleteCodex: Hello Ellen. Good to see you. Well at least this works. So which cat are you?
DeleteThe one that sits back and observes. Unless, of course, I decide to wade in.
DeleteWelcome in the blog world. Yesterday I used the word bedlam in a blog post and afterwards realised how it could mean insanity to UK and possibly US people - its root being the Bethlem Royal Hospital in London, a psychiatric care hospital. But in Irish English it means something like spirited unruliness, which I think are what cats bring to our lives. At least mine did.
ReplyDeleteCodex: Interesting. I always associated bedlam with chaotic, which in a sense is insanity; the opposite of order.

ReplyDeleteIn a literal sense, I mostly enjoy their playfulness and disruption. Often encounter deadline stress, cats force me to take a break.
I’m not a cat at all. I’m a frisky pup wondering when and how everything got so serious and do I need to be serious too, but really I can only do serious for but so long and then all bets are off.
ReplyDeleteCodex: The possibility that this would happen started 25 years ago. How? Multifactorial. As to pups :) Every day is a good day to be a doggo. There is an element of denial, but cat or dog there is always humor and joy. A decade is planned for this *waves arms*. We'll see....
