Giant Hairball


The other evening, that girl and I sat outside on the back deck watching mid-level clouds slowly clouding by and watching waves shuffling across the lake below.  Suddenly, a gust of wind kicked through the tall native grasses in my yard and swept up a giant hairball that quickly whisked off in front of our faces and vanished in the expanse of low hills around us.  Obviously, the hairball was about 10 percent of one of my 40 pounds of housecat.  I just grimaced and said, “Well, that was bound to happen sooner or later.”
