I missed my normal morning post due to Mom‘s morning appointment. Oh well. I woke up, put on clothes, and did my makeup. I didn’t even have a cup of coffee.
We came home right around lunchtime. I made a cup of coffee as soon as I could take off my shoes. Chaucer chased lizards while I caffeinated under the patio umbrella. He found one under the grill once, and cat logic therefore dictates there will always be a lizard there.
He chased two that ran under one side of the grill and out from the opposite. They ran out and across the yard. Chaucer stayed under there for 15 minutes, waiting. Eventually, a third lizard crossed the patio and headed under there with him. Chaos ensued, and both ran out. The lizard ran into a yard decoration, hid for a bit, then popped out of the top. While Chaucer was distracted by investigating the bottom of the thing the hiding place, the lizard doubled back and hid under the grill.
Eventually, Chaucer returned to the grill, and the whole shenanigans repeated.
