no coincidence
turns out it’s no coincidence that cat rhymes with brat
every day when siggimus comes home from work, the little furry critter waits next to the door & starts grunting & mini-meowing to indicate that siggimus is to play & cuddle
this instant
so, siggimus tries to locate the toy (not easy!) to play a bit
so, when siggimus finds the toy, he picks it up & throws it, along the floor, to the furthest end of casa siggimusum – all the way over to the east wing
at which, ugla the cat shoots off like a rocket, chasing after it, generally coming to a screeching halt on the slippery parquet floor. only occasionally bumping into things a bit
mostly, this goes well
1,2 seconds after she reaches the toy, the joy of the hunt fades & the grunting & half-meowing starts anew
occasionally, she will pick up the toy, run to siggimus & drop it at his feet
occasionally as in once every 63 times or so
the other times, she gives siggimus a puppy-eyed (yes, yes) look & half-meows a bit more. even half miaaaaas a bit. appealing to siggimuses infamous kindness & generosity of spirit
being a kind & generous spirit, siggimus does her bidding
repeat 150-200 times, or until right after siggimus collapses into a panting lump of wheeze on the floor, having run two and a half marathons (at least!)
not that siggimus is complaining (siggimus would never do that!), but a bit of gratitude would be appreciated. do you hear that, ugla?
update: seriously, some of those sounds are a kind of blend between meowing, purring & something that could come out of miss piggy. even more annoying at 5 in the morning…
updated update: ‘cuddling’, for ugla involves siggimus risking various extremities in petting her or rubbing. this pleases her greatly momentarily, but typically evolves into her trying to bite sizable chunks off of said extremities within seconds. maybe this is because she can’t go out to hunt birds or mice?

weird & wonderful hotel
siggimus is famous!!
siggimuses pic on weird and wonderful hotels well, a tiny little bit famouser … they finally used his pic
(here’s the original & here’s all of siggimuses pics from that place & here’s the prison’s web page)
no, siggimus never slept there, he didn’t even participate in the ‘reality show,’ but has watched a ‘documentary’ about trying to catch ghosts & spooks there & janis’ band mary jane recorded there once, over night. apparently quite spooky

frozen bit
frozen bit, originally uploaded by siggimus.
one of a multitude that siggimus somehow managed to deftly circumnavigate, despite his disquietude
what began as mild apprehension & slight concern, soon mutated into unabated fear, interspersed with near-panic and debilitating terror attacks as the frozen little bits reflected the beam from his super-duper headlight, as it slit open the hungry tar of darkness enveloping siggimus (much like moseses trick with the puddle) giving siggimus steady footing for to cycle on in the sea of oblivion
(really really wants studded tires, does siggimus
at that pace, old ladies with canes could have overtaken siggimus in throngs, were they given to thronging on dark & icy mornings)
