Today’s Panda’s birthday! We spent a quiet day running errands and buying groceries, then enjoyed a nice meal out before retiring for the night to work on our own stuff. Since I don’t have any footage of today, let’s review what we did on my birthday recently. 😛

Weather’s been rather chilly in the east, with bits of snow trying to stick on the ground in the DC area. Reminds me of the day it randomly hailed for just a few seconds in LA.

Around dinnertime, the cats are sure to let you know they’re ready to be fed. Listen to the forlorn little meow that Missy uses to guilt you into feeding her early!

How quickly the first month of the year went by! It seems like just last week I was listening to the festivities put on by the neighbors.

It’s been raining a lot here lately and the crisp freshness of the air after a wet day reminds me of the time right after Sandy swept through Panda’s place in VA. The squirrels had come out in force, frantically eating the food they’d hidden!

The legend of the wild parrots in the Arcadia/San Marino/Pasadena area of Los Angeles is a pretty loud (and squeaky) one! Apparently they’re red-lored parrots and they usually fly in large groups, or at least pairs, squawking to each other the whole time. Talk about an alarm you can’t shut off!

Honk your horn! 🙂 I can’t remember why the vehicles started honking, but people had fun and you can hear the people in the car next to me having a blast!

There’s an awesome pond filled with ducks for you to feed and play with in my town. Today I stopped by to find this brave fellow, who let me get within arm’s reach! I just had to see if I could actually touch him and I loved it. He’s so soft!! Everyone should try poking a duck too.

Let’s kick off 2013 with a fun video of me cartwheeling by the Potomac this fall! Wheeeeee!

You know what makes me happy? My adorable cats, sleeping the day away. It brings serenity to my life. 🙂

Sometimes when Missy’s sleeping really soundly, she’ll twitch or move like she’s running or (like in this case) eating.
