The other day, I picked up two pair of my shoes from where I had randomly left them after removing them from my feet. I put them on the stairs so I could take them up and put them away the next time I needed to go up. Cuz I’m lazy like that.
One fell and landed rather appealingly inside another. I was a little drunk, probably, and thought the scene looked sorta cool, so I went and got my iPhone to try some Hipstamatic pics.
Actually I know I was a little drunk because I couldn’t remember my favourite settings of lens, film, flash – and I’ve never bothered to save the groupings like best. Because I’m also lazy like that. So I tried this:
And that wasn’t right because I hate the stupid date-stamp. Maybe it’s cute if you were born in 1990, but 1982 is a year that I remember and it didn’t look like that.
So I tried this:
This is the one iDJ likes. But no, it wasn’t exactly what I was going for. So I tried again with a third group of settings…
…and apparently I had been standing there playing with camera settings too long, because I got photobomed by Lokii.

I know what you mean about 1982. I saw one of those things the other day that said : I still think 1990 is 10 years ago.
I had to count it on my fingers to see what made that funny….
I saw that too. And yes, I still feel that way! It was, just a few years ago, wasn’t it? Maybe when we get into 2020 the difference between 2000 and 2010 will seem like an actual distance.
Not if you still have jeans from 1993.
Yep, the last one is perfect!
Caught in mid-meow, too. He’s making a statement, clearly. Probably something about attention that should be directed at petting or his dish, instead of shoe photos.
I like the color shot, too.
He’s a talker! It was affection he was after, as always 🙂 Stand still in this house for a few minutes and you have a cat staring up at you saying, ‘hi! Hi! Hiiiiiiii! Pick me up.’
If you ignore them, they leap into your arms. We have to always be prepared for this… turning your back is a mistake! I really need video of this. I really need to figure out how to upload videos, first.

love the polka-dot shoes! AND the cat chiming in!
I have a pretty good sneaker collection! Mostly because the hubby LOVES SHOES and buys me the ones that won’t fit him. Works for me – I own exactly four pair of heels, one pair being my wedding shoes, one being sensible low job interview heels, and two crazy mad high ones i never wear. Sneaks and boots are much more ‘me!’ I did like that I could see the fun in the image, even before Lokes came and made himself visually heard 🙂
>:-D Yes, what Jude said–do more!
I want to see a pic of your sneaker collection!
I just tried to send a pic of the ones I have on now… No dice!

rats!
Just love these – more please. 🙂
Aw, thanks! I’ll try – it isn’t every day my own shoes make me smile. Now, the cat…all the time!
I like the colorful photo! 🙂
I I might have used the not-favourite one here… Was having technical difficulties and got bored 🙂
Saucy polka-dot one. Goosing the other one. Cat commenting. Perfection.
I do like those, they’re fun! Apparently even more fun than I expected. Kitty’s always fun 🙂
Glad you got the shot before moving stuff – nice one!
(oh, and cats are so into “move it along – nothing to see here…..”
Me too! It’s hard sometimes to see the whimsy in nothing at all like this. Glad I was slightly-out-of-true enough to spot it. Lokii as the cop from South Park! Oh dear.
I love all of them, but being photo bombed by a cat is the best!
I was lucky to get him mid-complaint. As much as that mouth is open, you’d think it would be easy!
