Incessant Chatterings of Yours Truly

Much to our chagrin, in spite of all our efforts to catproof the backyard made necessarily by a dog door and the general laziness of everyone in our household and the insanity of the dogs and cats (of which there are 8 in total)...*inhale deep* ... we had a jailbreak.

Our roomate's very, very athletic bengal cat, William, made it past the fences and the precautions we built on it. So, two days of blocking the dog door and dealing with the animals, we have decided to build a nice little gazebo in the back yard to trap him inside.

But naturally there are no 9'8" by 20' gazebos, so we've acquired a 9'10" square one and have been trying to alter it.

Cue hijinks.



Diem assembling the gazebo's framework.
Abel: How do those nuts taste in your mouth?
Diem: They're better than others I've tasted.
Abel: I know you've been complaining about the taste of some nuts in your mouth, before.
Diem: Yeah, I've stuck a lot of things in my mouth during this project. These aren't terrible. Some of the best tasting nuts I've encountered, yet!

Addy: where's Mr. White Shirt?
Abel: Mr. White Shirt?
Addy: Yeah, Josh. I've never seen him in anything but a white shirt.
Abel & Lexington laugh madly.

Abel: There's some crazy plants in the desert. Yukka, cactus, joshua trees.
Lexington: Joshua trees? What do they look like? Do they have white shirts?
Abel busts up laughing: I have missed you!
