Fawlty Showers

I Like That About You

Cuddles the cat wandered in, a dead mouse drooping from his mouth.

He laid the mouse on a box, swished his tail in the air, purred, and walked away, his head and tail held high.

A moment later Abigail stopped by to tell me I’d parked slightly sideways. I’m not sure why.  She saw the mouse. I expected her to be disgusted.

Abigail smiled. I imagined I heard her face crack.  “Cuddles must like you, he left you a present.”  Abigail liked cats.  I liked that about her.

Over the years I’d learned I wasn’t going to like everyone, but finding something I did like about them made tolerating their company much easier.

 

Today I’ll try to find something I like about people I don’t.
