On a whim, I stepped outside of my patio door, and there on the ground was a beautiful, large, dead cat.  It looked very recent, as if it was just sleeping.  That totally unmade my day, which had been pretty uneventful up until just now.  I’ve been missing my cat, and being able to have one, and then this.  I don’t have any way to dispose of it, so it’s just out there, making me sad.  Not a good sign.

In lieu of a dead cat photo, here are flowers.
