Jenn and I just got back from supper at the Bua Thai with a couple of friends of mine. The resturant was reccomened by my friend, and she picked the majority of the dishes, and boy she picked well. It was a really good meal, starting with curry puffs and green pappya salad, moving on to Vegetarian Pad Thai and Cashew Chicken (Which I did not have) and Penang Curried Chicken and Beef and mushrooms on a hot skillet, all washed down with a lovely Alsatian Gewurtztraminer. We debated coffee and dessert, but decided to just go home and sleep instead, as Jenn has to be at work first thing in the morning, and we are not really used to getting up in the morning, since she never starts school until 11:00.
Mandy is still very active and happy, although she seems to be kind of bored without Banjo, and even as we speak, she is practically bouncing off the walls. We will be taking her in for testing in about two weeks, so keep watching for the health updates. Also, in her brother's absence, she has learned to open the closets just like he used to, but she is actually much better at it. We are growing concerned about the possible haunted mirror though. A few weeks back when Banjo was still with us, both he and Mandy would sit by our bedroom mirror and chatter away at in in an adgitated manor, batting crazily at something once in a while, their tails flicking vigorously. As far as we could tell there is nothing there. They were making it up to scare us. Both Banjo and Mandy would religiously do this all day for about a week and then they just stopped. Well, this week Mandy has taken to this behaviour again. We are not sure what she sees or is trying to tell us. Maybe there is a ghost in the mirror, who knows.....We did find mail the other day addressed to the estate of so and so in #4. Maybe that person died and is haunting our mirror, why-I don't know. We don't live in #4, the ghost is confused. Anyways, if any one had any idea why our cat is doing this, let us know what you think.

Millie does that too. She'll sit on top of the TV, look up at the ceiling, and meow. She usually fixes on one spot, but then shifts her stare as if the spot has moved. I often wonder if she sees something I don't - like a miniscule fly or something. But it's very entertaining to watch. Sometimes it sounds like she's just talking at the spot, others it sounds like she's singing a mournful song. Who knows what it is they see!
I find it fantastically amusing that you can spell "Gewurtztraminer" but not "recommended."
But that's just me.
Misha doesn't do anything crazy like that in my house except sit in front of the register in the hallway and get skittish and bat at it. I think he just smells something because why on earth would a ghost haunt that particular duct?
In my last apartment, however, he was nutty. The ceiling in the bedroom was of particular interest, just in the corner opposite the bed though. He'd pull the craziest stunts like leaping off the bed towards that corner, perching on the end of the bed all ansy-like and meowing at the ceililng, tail flicking galor, and hopping on and off the bed incessantly. I don't know what it was and he never had that reaction to any thing or place else. I just chalked it up to a short circuit due to too much catnip, but only to avoid any other possibility.
And even if it is supernatural, probably just as well that the cat has a playmate. What could it hurt?
