This morning,
directly after breakfast I went outside to play in the garden.
Rapidly,
however, the sky darkened and began leaking water at an alarming
rate.
This serious rupture apparently created an
electrical problem Up There, because Lights also kept flickering on and
off.
It seems that Gods can't see well in the dark, because They immediately began crashing into the
furniture and making a terrible booming racket!
I considered the
possibility of one of Them tripping and then tumbling out of the sky and landing on Yours
Truly. “Squished by a God” might look impressive in history books, but I certainly did not want that to be MY epitaph!
I streaked through the garden, then skidded across the porch and planted myself halfway up the screened
entrance to my witch’s cottage. There I clung for several long minutes, dripping wet and mewing piteously. She finally had
the grace to open the door and pry me off the screen.
And…can you
believe it? My witch was laughing! She must be
powerful indeed that a Heavenly Catastrophe of this magnitude only causes her amusement.
As for this little cat? Well... Yours Truly shall be securely tucked under his witch's bed
until the Gods get this whole plumbing and electrical problem sorted out!
