The Diary of Lord Kellington (7)

I have named it.

The kittens name is....Crystal.
It is an apt name, seeing as 
she felt compelled to break
my crystal goblet.

The very one I "drink" from
on the occasions when someone
tries to break in.

One must see to use manners
when one is in his own home.

Crystal has not one.  
She has already used my coffin
as an outhouse.
We are working stridently on
that particular issue.

Last nights hunt was....well,
boring, to say the least.  I was
distracted.  My thoughts were of 
home and what Crystal was doing now.

I need to take time.  
Feel the flavor of the hunt.  
Feel my preys fear.  
Or it is like drinking Ale, 
instead of a rare wine.

Both will get you there.  
But, as I always say,
One must always choose style.  It is
what separates us from...well,
uncouth mortals and such.

I am not a snob.
I may be pure evil, true.
But, I do have standards.
Few that they may be.

I believe I am fit now.
Tomorrows nights hunt will be
one of the most fun.
I am going to a party.

One I must crash, of course.

Hi Paula I decided to write again seeing I hadn't been properly introduced to him before.See me Lord has named the kitten at last.And still tugging at his heart strings.Has it stopped tugging at the curtains yet?I must wait now for further installments to see if love conquers all.Or whether Crystal grows great big sharp claws and digs---oh sorry I got carried away.Can't wait for the next one. luv June
