not even tryin'


I swear, it's like she's not even tryin'.


MOUSES!


I know, I know...  I know what you're thinkin'.  You're thinkin' that Peepers has gone and messed somethin' all up, due to a lack of her tryin'.


Again.


MOUSES!


Well, to tell you the truth...


To tell you the truth, she has messed everythin' up.


And there is a distinct possibility it's 'cause she wasn't really tryin'.


But truth be told, I'm not talking 'bout her.


This time.


MOUSES!


Nope, THIS TIME, I'm talking 'bout ol' Mother Nature.  Ol' Mother Nature is not even tryin'.


MOUSES!


I shall explain.


So it's May, right?


Hold on.  Let me go check.


Yup, I just looked on the calendar and it is, in fact, May.


It's hard to tell sometimes, on account of the weather.


MOUSES!


Okay, okay...  Okay, so yesterday was nice.  Yesterday was spring-like and everythin'.


As was the day before.


But the day before that?  The day before that was chilly enough that Peepers had to put on a sweater.


MOUSES!


And for a while, there, it felt like we had nothin' but rain.


Which might have been fine durin' April, what with April showers and all that, but it was SUPPOSED to be May.


Which is SUPPOSED to have flowers.


MOUSES!


Okay, so the daffodils are bloomin'.


But those daffies are daffy, and they'll show off when it's cold.


Without even botherin' to put on a sweater.


MOUSES!


But my point 'bout this is...


My point 'bout this is, Mother Nature is slackin', regardin' spring weather.


I SWEAR, IT'S LIKE SHE'S NOT EVEN TRYIN'.


MOUSES!


What?  What's that, Peepers?  What's that you're babblin' on about now?


Tomorrow is supposed to be 17C and sunny, you say?


Hmmm...


Well sure, yeah, NOW Mother Nature is makin' an effort.  NOW she's bringin' us spring.


BUT THAT'S JUST 'CAUSE I, SEVILLE THE CAT, CALLED OUT HER SLACKINESS AND PUT HER ON NOTICE.



So in a way, if the weather gets spring-like, it is ME you should thank.


Feel free to send treats.


MOUSES!
