(happy jig) One of my most favourite BCN quotes is no longer a spoiler! :D For Lupin, nothing is impossible! The ceiling is just another floor and mailmen are real!
What on earth (or in the air) is next to Lupin in the last panel? Is he hanging from a ceiling light? Turned the screen upside down & still no joy. :-{
Love, >^.,.^<
p.s., Love Pucky’s nervous expressions! Is he biting his lip in the last panel? ♥♥♥
Vente Iced Americano. 4 shots, a little squirt of hazelnut, room for cream. A little half and half and a sprinkle of cinnamon on top. Got that Beatrix?
In our household decaf is referred to as “why bother”. I only drink coffee in the am; any after noon and I am wide awake all night so it’s herbal teas in the evening.
My former pastor back in Colorado was a Starbucks aficionado with an Adrian Monk-level case of OCD. His favorite Starbucks hired a barista who could never get his order right. For a month or so, the words “venti non-fat no-water soy chai” found its way into his sermons on a regular basis.
Good morning, dear friends. I had my half way done with chemo checkup last week, and the news was mixed. It looks like the chemo has not been working as well as we hoped. There has been some significant regrowth in the old neighborhood, my abdomen. The cancer has started to take over some of the real estate vacated by the January surgery.
Now, on the plus side, in February there looked to be some shifty eyed cells in the upper body, up to no good and trying to establish an outpost on the left chest wall. No evidence of that now, so either it was never there or the chemo took care of it.
No known organ involvement anywhere, lungs, heart, liver, and remaining organs all clean, per the CT scan.
So, mixed bag but we have a plan B. I am switching over to a more aggressive chemo regimen with a harsher pair of drugs. I am also going to every other week, instead of every third week. Yay- more perforations, but if it works I can deal.
Thanks to all for your ongoing purrs and good wishes. I am intent on beating this into submission.
I just looked at the original version of this, and I can now comment (I’ve been holding back!) on how wonderfully Georgia has captured a kitten’s frenetic energy!
Okay Orb-sters….Who’s turn is it for Starcats run? I will have: The Double Ristretto Venti Half-Soy Nonfat Decaf Organic Chocolate Brownie Iced Vanilla Double-Shot Gingerbread Frappuccino Extra Hot With Foam Whipped Cream Upside Down Double Blended, One Sweet’N Low and One Nutrasweet
As the Caped Crusader and the Boy Wonder skillfully climb up the side of the Big Pink House Robin can’t help but glace in one of the windows.
“Holy leapin’ Lupin, Batman. Is that a cat on the ceiling?”
“Yes, Robin, it appears that another of Gotham’s cats has had a little too much caffeine.”“When will it ever end, Batman, when will it ever end?”
Batman can only shake is head in response as they continue their climb.

Will Batman and Robin ever make it to the attic. Will the ghosts of cats past still be there? Will Lupin ever come down from the ceiling? Why are we mixing Batman and Breaking Cat News in one story? For the answer to these and other Bat questions tune in tomorrow, same Bat time, same Bat channel.
I’ll take a white tea with mint, honey, sugar-free caramel machiato, 3 squirts of Splenda, and leave the teabag in the cup please. The stronger it gets, the better it is.
@shaunnmunn You asked about my kids. I have 4, all grown. The oldest boy is Jon-Lee, then Jeff who is married to Jessica. The girls are Jora and Jerika (rhymes with America.) Jon-Lee and Jora live with me and are both autistic though very high functioning. Jon-Lee is also a genius and actually enjoys doing taxes. Well, I suppose someone has to and at least it’s not me.

There goes the ceiling, flying away again. (Well, I guess it’s appropriate, given Lupin’s whiter shade of pale.)

Now lets watch Lupin’s ceiling light dismount backward two and a half somersaults with one and a half twists onto the red couch.

With a strong coffee I can touch the sky
Run and jump in an open flight!
Hang upside down on a ceiling light!
I believe I can soar!
Now the ceiling has become a floor!
