Flip Friday

A few days ago, I said to Zoe, "I think this week for Flip Friday, we might just do Mini Cat Movies.  What do you think of that?"

She stared at me with A Look.  Apparently, I didn't decipher The Look correctly.

I thought it was a look of, "OK, do whatever you want."

Now I know it was just A Look.

Up until yesterday, I was still ignorant of this fact however, so I said to the Mini Cat, "It's your movie day!!  Let's make some Mini Cat Movies!!"  I'd already made one small movie of him a couple of days ago, but I wanted one more.  I wanted a Jumping Movie.

The Chick helped with the process.  She played with the Mini Cat while I shot footage of him playing.  Movie after movie, he kept jumping and flying out of the frame.  Finally, I thought I had enough material, and we stopped filming and I came upstairs to make some movies.

I said to Zoe, "Wait until you see this Jumping Movie, Zoe.  I think You might like it."

There it was:  The Look.

I pressed on.

Needless to say, I got nothing in all those movies.  I had a lot of movies of the Mini Cat flying through the air in which all you could see was a tail tip, a set of little white toes, or, more commonly, a Blur of Nothingness.

"I guess I didn't get anything after all," I said, disappointed.

Again, The Look.

And so, I also made a Rabbit Movie.

See?  I'm not as dumb as I look.

Here are this week's Friday offerings, then.

First, the Mini Cat:

Enjoy your weekend!  Oh, and try to avoid The Look.

Owwwwwwwwwwwwww, that last Look is a killer!

Even though there's no jumping, I still like the Toby video. It has good foot display.

And of course, the rabbit film is self-explanatory.

Happy F-Day!

Poor Toby, stretching out his little legs, showing off his bum and saying, "Where are they? WHERE ARE THEY?" No wonder he didn't feel like leaping.

And hey, Divine Miss Z -- nice jaw action! You rock!
