Cat lover
Posted under lifeWarning— the video above is not at all exciting, and probably not entertaining either. But if you would like to hear me talk about my resident Monarch caterpillars with some not-so-soothing live cicada music in the background, this is the movie for you.
The beautiful and talented Zoe awarded me with the Nice Matters Award. Not, as I thought on first glance, the “Nice Manners Award.” Which is good— I think manners are overrated. Why? Because I grew up around folks who were well-mannered but not loving or kind.

“This award is for those bloggers who are nice people; good blog friends and those who inspire good feelings and inspiration. Also for those who are a positive influence on our blogging world. Once you’ve been awarded please pass it on to 7 others who you feel are deserving of this award.”
ok then.. Isthmus, Hannah, Laura, Mary, Kathy, and back atcha Zoe. And here’s a Nice Matters award for Tashi too.

Oh My Goodness.
I really like this video. Hehe! Funny.
I feel an affinity to these butterfly-to-be-pillars. Sometimes I feel like I’m clinging for dear life to a flimsy but nurturing stem. I can only hope there is a Benevolent Force such a Molly up there that won’t spray me, either!
Haha…good going.
Your Uncle,
Hannah
p.s. thank you very much for passing the Nice Manners Award on. Very Sweet. I’m excited—teaching my first class in two years on the 22nd. Woot! Hopefully I’ll get a good group going. Too bad you can’t be there. It’s a lot of funnnnn.

Oops!
Excuse me. “Nice Matters”…that does look scarily like nice manners. Shows how brainwashed I am by our pseudo-polite society.
Why does that remind me of the Ani Difranco song “Pixie” ?
“I’m a Pixie, I’m a paper doll. I’m a cartoton. I’m a chipper, cheerful free-for-all and I light up a room. I’m a color-me-happy girl. Miss Live and Let Live, and when they’re out for blood I always give.”
