“like those great sphinxes lounging through eternity in noble attitudes upon the desert sand,
they gaze incuriously at nothing, calm and wise.”

I didn't have my glasses on.... 
another perfect marriage of word and image! And not for the first time I think that your cat has got the perfect name – she’s all of what comes to mind in connection with the word….
I don’t know however what Baudelaire would make of seing his ‘citation’ in connection to your Yeti’s pose ;) I have a feeling he was wahaaay too serious for the ‘hidden’ fun in your use of his sayings.

Fair warning: If I ever get a white cat, I’m stealing that name. Meanwhile, although I’m a champion lounger, you’ll never see me adopting that position. (I couldn’t if I tried.)

A professional lounger. Gazing incuriously at nothing—I like that phrase. It reminds me of a few students I taught.🤣
