I knew she was possessed.

Wally loves the porch.

And Phoebe loves boxes.

And Sarah’s chair.

Fall Weather – Warmish days and gloriously cool nights. I love it.

Red Sox – They’re still losing. They’ve lost the last 3 series and aren’t looking too sharp against the TB Rays in this series. And the Rays are closing fast in the Wild Card standings. If the Sox don’t turn this around soon, they could rival the 2007 Mets for the biggest September collapse in recent memory.

Clumsiness – I was walking out to my car on Tuesday and didn’t see a depression in the parking lot. I twisted my ankle severely and went down hard. The next day my ankle was the size of a football and turning purple. Nothing is broken or torn, but I won’t be running a marathon anytime soon.

New Toys – Besides my new flash, I picked up a remote flash kit so I can put my flash unit somewhere else and trigger it from the camera. That allows me to shoot from one side of the subject while the flash lights the other.

I bought a Canon 430 EX II flash. It’s very adjustable and can either wash out the scene or light it gently. I think I’m going to have fun learning how to use it. My poor cats will be victims, though.

Not that Ollie is in any mood to chase.

Miss Tortie might be, though.

Ah-hah, a clue.

Mystery solved.

We have a couple of these cat trees in our house and the cats love them. As you can see, the trees take quite a beating, but they’re cheap enough, so they get replaced every now and then. Kiki was particularly playful this morning, so I caught some of the action.

I took today off and stayed home with the kitties. Here are a few shots from today.
