Texts From Mittens by Angie Bailey for August 11, 2022

Are you sure you should even let Mittens associate with Stumpy?

Stumpy’s birthday is Saturday? Mine’s tomorrow! But my family will be celebrating with me on Saturday by taking me to dinner. Even though I’m working tomorrow, there will be some semblance of celebrating. I’ll be flaunting my birthday so that the whole world knows by wearing my Birthday Queen tiara and sash. And Starbucks will have a free Frappuccino for me! I love that my birthday falls on Frappuccino Friday this year!

Stumpy just be quite handsome. I imagine him to be a big ginger cat, with gorgeous green eyes.

Even Stumpy should know better than to date tortie sisters. #tortitude

Ah, that year. Infamously known throughout the neighborhood as “The Night the Fur Flew.”

Ah, the Tortie Sisters. I firmly believe that their “Duetto buffo di due gatti” is the definitive performance of the work.

I dated sisters. There was no secrecy involved. It was in separate years and they were both fine with it. Other than a mild physical resemblance, they were very different. One was a self-described “hippy” (in the nicest possible way) and the other was into video production (in the most ambitious possible way). :)

Stumpy lives dangerously.

Well, you can’t invite one sister without the other. How was Mittens to know!?!
