Dear Diary,
Because today the North Americans celebrate the day of Thanksgiving, I paid homage to the occasion by taking a nap. If I am thankful for anything, dear Diary, it is for naps. Not the short kind which humans so foolishly call "cat naps", but the real cat naps, which are lengthy and languid and most exquisitely enjoyed in impractical places.
And as my mental legs wandered through naptime's thankful thoughts  My mental legs + boots.
( As a side note I would like to mention that English-speaking cats have 9 lives, while Spanish-speaking cats have only 7. This is fair because spanish-speakers are more nimble on their feet.)
7 THANK YOUS!!! I immediately (after the nap, of course) executed this 7-layered plan on my neighbor, who has been marvellously generous with his food lately. The plan transpired thusly:
- 7:00- Rang doorbell, greeted Neighbor with flowers and said "Thank you."
- 7:15- Rang doorbell, greeted Neighbor with hand-drawn portrait (of him) and said "Thank you."
- 7:16- Rang doorbell but forgot the poem I wanted to recite. Rats!
- 7:17- Rang doorbell, placed a boiled egg on the porch, and then hid in the bushes so that it would be a mystery-surprise-snack.
- 7:30- Still hiding in the bushes.
- 7:45- Sent Neighbor an e-card with smiley faces.
- 8:00- Presented Neighbor with an authentic Photoshopped Certificate of Gratitude for his excellent generosity.
 - 8:10- Serenaded Neighbor with local Mariachi band. (My favorite song is "El Mariachi" by "El Mariachi").
- 9:10- Ran out of ideas and went home.
All in all it was a most successful venture. I know the neighbor was greatful because when I told him I was going home he said, "Thank Heavens!!"
 HAPPY THANKSGIVING! |

Dear Diary,
In the buisness of being Amazing, one must master the mind.
One good way to practice will power is to eat only one salted peanut. It is a veritable impossibility. Not even google images can find ONE salty peanut.
Sincerely,
