CAT JACK

Here’s The Flaming Bore’s jack-o-lantern from Halloween night. Even the youngest of trick-or-treaters recognized it as a cat, so I declared my creation a yowling success. We managed to give away all the Kit Kat bars on hand, mainly because I didn’t want to be tempted with any leftovers. Critter loved watching the kids come up on the porch from her little lookout spot by the front window, Fluffy hid in the bedroom, and Bits took the opportunity to escape to the backyard until all the little spooks went home.

My beloved KU Jayhawks tip off their first game of the basketball season tonight. Even though it’s just an exhibition, I will have the best front row seat in the house--in my living room.

(The Flaming Bore will be on hiatus the next few days, as Big Bore and I will be camping in the wilds.)
