Rainy day company



Living in Florida, you would think I would get used to storms.
Not quite.
When I heard about hurricane Irene, I started to quiver. The fact that it's geared toward the Carolina's didn't comfort me. 

Yet having Gatsby as company made me feel at ease. I was glad to have my furry companion by my side during the cold, wet, rainy weather. Although I spent my time reading and catching up on Happy Endings and Modern Family, I didn't feel so alone. 

It's amazing how pets can fill you with joy when you feel so empty. Today wasn't one of the best of days, but Gatsby was there when I needed him most. And that makes me smile.

  1. He is such a sweetie! Our human says she'd never be able to leave for work in the mornings if Gatsby were living here. :-)

    Hey, but how come she can leave *us*?

    BTW, we're not sure how Irene is tracking at this time (we're in Ontario, Canada), but we hope you'll all be safe.
