I went early to Maia's to ask her over to Liam's going-away dinner. Perhaps it was a celebrate-the-visa dinner. He is excited, while I just feel relieved. I feel that my job is done. In any event, M. and I ended up walking the dogs together. While she finished getting ready, I wandered out in the yard and found Mickey, the cat, sitting in the sun. Mickey, unlike myself (or even unlike some of his wandering feline housemates), feels no compunction whatsoever to continuously walk around in the world. I must admit to a moment of envy.
I know I'm missing something about "walking around the world" but I love the assessment of Mickey's inactivity! His expression says, "Life is too short- stop and enjoy the sun".
