Cats
Before i entered office this morning, a cat circled my feet. Then it stopped and looked back at me with shiny eyes!

Cats are unpredictable. They can look at you with such disdain that it makes all your self-confidence evaporate. And then suddenly, they’ll look at you with one brief, understanding glance that seems to say
“I recognize, I understand. We know each other”
And then the moment is gone.
Just like some people.

So true! I almost feel previliged when a cat deigns to rub herself against my feet. And that look of indifference or disdain is smthing only a cat can achieve

or their adoring gazes.. the way a cat that loves you looks at you, is like a lazy roll in golden warmth..

You domesticate dogs. Cats domesticate you.
Try hearing the purring when they sleep next to you. Thats when you start getting domesticated.

@ Raccoon: Cats are special…the four-legged as well as the two-legged varieties.
@ Pragni: Actually I’ve never owned a cat. But what am I saying? No one OWNS a cat.
@ Anonymous: Yes, will do that.

Shes always a woman
She can kill with a smile
She can wound with her eyes
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child
But shes always a woman to me
She can lead you to love
She can take you or leave you
She can ask for the truth
But shell never believe you
And shell take what you give her, as long as its free
She steals like a thief
But shes always a woman to me
Oh-she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
Shes ahead of her time
Oh-and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind
And shell promise you more
Than the garden of eden
Then shell carelessly cut you
And laugh while youre bleedin
But shell bring out the best
And the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself
Cause shes always a woman to me
She is frequently kind
And shes suddenly cruel
She can do as she pleases
Shes nobodys fool
But she cant be convicted
Shes earned her degree
And the most she will do
Is throw shadows at you
But shes always a woman to me
Now, I wonder why I still love Billy Joel.

lol, yeah…but the 2-legged cats still need to do a lot of catching up with their 4-legged compatriots.
