Kitty Cat Diary - 2009

 

December

Weather turned colder, so no more lounging around in slinky clothes for Kitty Cat. It stays warm in Fuzhou until pretty late into the autumn, but around November and December is when it finally starts to get cold.

 

October

Kitty Cat wearing a skirt I designed for her a few years ago--an East meets West style.

 

This robe is currently Kitty Cat's favorite. She usually wears slinky little nothings at home during summer, so whenever someone rings the doorbell, she'll throw this robe on to answer the door. It goes really well with long, black hair--that classic Asian beauty look.

 

Gravity and Kitty Cat teaming up to get the seduce on. I like. Hard not to get distracted when she lies down next to me looking like that.

 

This dress makes the kitty Cat look more slender. Fascinating how that works--just a tiny difference in cut or style or fabric can seem to add or subtract 5~10 lbs.

 

Kitty Cat is a major klutz. She may look elegant perched on the stairs like that, but in daily life, she often slips and tumbles down the stairs instead (loud tumbling noise followed by a yelp and a crash, then me shaking my head and getting up from the computer to check up on her). We didn't used to have carpet on the stairs--it was just this beautiful white painted wood. Then we realized for people as clumsy as we are, we'd soon crack a tailbone, elbow, or worse yet, skull, if we didn't put carpet on it. Ever since we added the carpet, I seem to be doing fine, but she still slips and tumbles regularly.

 

That spot on the sofa is one of my favorite spots at home. When the two of are curled up together on the couch watching a movie, with the lights off and junk food in front of us--it's the most wonderful simple pleasure in life.

Kitty Cat has several of these Chinese-styled halter tops (they are traditionally worn as undergarment, but no one wears them that way in modern times, except as something for fun), and they just hang in the closet collecting dust. So one day I said to her, "Since you wear mostly slinky little things at home during the summer anyway, why don't you wear those halter tops at home too?" Ask, and you shall get.

September

This is one of my favorite of Kitty Cat's dresses. She looks elegant in it.
