Today's walk report: Are you okay? Where's your home?

 Out the door at 65º, relative humidity 85%. A humidex factor of 73º. I didn't find it particularly refreshing. I met this guy 1.12 miles in on what became a 1.63 mile walk. Not a big deal but it was actually more than I thought I would do. I had a lot of yard work planned before it got to 80º, which turned out to be 56% RH, a humidex factor of 90º, AKA, Noticeable discomfort. I looked at the cat and the cat looked at me. This property is where I spent a good portion of my life from slightly less than five years old until I was 12. This is where I attended elementary school. It's sort of like a big cage. Anyway, I started talking to the cat. I asked him if he had a home and if he was okay. I think he told me yes. He looked healthy. Then he wanted to walk with me. I decided I should pick up my pace and ignore him. I didn't want him to stray any farther from home. I'm assuming he lived in the gated community just west of where we were and I was headed east. People, if you have a cat, please keep your cat indoors.

  1. I will gladly trade weather with you. I live in a humid furnace. Kitty looks pretty domesticated to me so I think you heard him or her correctly. Probably not Stan’s type 😎
