Pretty rotten

Okay, time for a break from the seriousness of last post!

I was looking through some old photos recently, and I noticed that I had a whole lot of photos of our former cat, Omar, but only a few of Ramona, our current one. Partly this must be due to the novelty of cat ownership in general wearing off with time. But partly it's funny, because Ramona is just about the most beautiful and photogenic cat in the history of, well, cats.

Ramona is so beautiful (and yet so comically chubby, grouchy, spoiled, uncoordinated, and loud at the exact same time) that Russell and I find ourselves singing a pretty specific song to her almost every day. I was definitely humming it during a little photo shoot we had the other afternoon, in hopes of putting a dent in that photo deficit I noticed.

So here it is, my ode to our cat:

Looking 'round the room

I can tell that you

Are the most beautiful girl

In the... room

In the whole wide room

And when you're on the street

Depending on the street

I bet that you are definitely in the top three

Good-looking girls on the street

Depending on the street...

You're so beautiful

You could be a waitress

You're so beautiful

You could be an air hostess in the 60's

You're so beautiful

Like a tree

Like some ceramics or something...

You're so beautiful

You could be a part-time model

But you'd probably have to keep your normal job

A part time model

You could spend part of your time modeling

and part of your time

next to meeee...
