A Day In The Life Of SeQueL
by SeQueL (sql at lerios dot org)
|
As the book cover says, this is A Visual Introduction to
SeQueL.
|
SeQueL came into our lives as a furball: that's what a kitten is when
90% of her body is a distended tummy. The proper spelling of her name
is SQL, as she is named after the computer language, as were our other cats. This acronym is typically
pronounced sequel, but we occasionally call her
squeal given the high pitch and low volume of her meows.
|
|
The following pictures illustrate a day in SeQueL's life, from her
perspective. Photographs of SeQueL in interesting settings are
collectors' items since she is scared of anything and everything
except Pascal. Think of South Park's Tweek, and you get the idea...

|
Eeek! Where am I? Who are you? I just got here. Eeek!
|
|
Must hide. Now. Quick, under the desk!
|
|
They found me. Ack! Let's try under the chair! I know, if I close my
eyes, no one will see me. (The poor thing isn't very bright, either.)
|
|
Phew, I'm safe now. Nobody and nothing will get me out of here.
|
Sniff, sniff, is this what I think it is? Dinner! I'm out of here.
|
|
That was quite filling. I must watch that figure since I just can't
get rid of this tummy... must be genetic since Mommy complains about
hers too. So I'll go exercise. Chase the birdie!
|
|
See how well I can climb up my scratching post? Someday, I'll be an
astronaut and they'll call me Buzz Lighteyes: To the ribbon and
beyond!
|
|
The birdie is good, but I crave danger today. Where is my sister
Pascal hiding from me?
|
|
Gotcha! Wanna play?
|
|
No? Some other time? That's what you always say... OK... I'll just
play with my pet cricket then.
|
|
Have you been taking pictures of me all along, Dad? Let me see, let me
see!
|
|
I sure look good, don't I? Maybe someday, when my older sister is old
and gray, I can take her place as Queen of this house. Don't I look
good in my royal black gown?

P.S. Dear Diary, I have a confession to make. My family has had a long
tradition of living in the wilds of Texas. In fact, we've been playing
a joke on humans for many years now. Can you guess what it is? Here's
a hint: most of my relatives live in Marfa, TX.
