banished...

...to the patio for the next two hours, while we let our apartment air out from the ant ex"terminator" spray-down....

...with a kitty that is not only yelling at me...

...but has apparently learned how to escape from her carrier!

i was hoping to avoid this. as a result, i get to try to keep her from slipping between the bars of our railing or from sitting/jumping from one of the many ledges.

i have a feeling that this won't be a productive afternoon. and to think i have a plane to catch in 6 hours. oy.

lap kate vs. laptop
