Kitty foiled my commute
Five minutes before departure time this morning, I was collecting my commuting gear when I discovered my leg straps were missing. I always hang the straps from the handlebar, and I can only assume my cat found them to be a fun toy. I spend about ten minutes this morning unsuccesfully searching the house for the missing straps. By the time I gave up looking it was too late to bike and I had no choice but to take the car.
That darn cat.
That darn cat.

My cats do the samething, but my leg straps are just rubber bands, so if I loose one, i don't worry about (my cats don't eat the rubber bands) and I just grab a new one from my big box of rubber bands.

This was the type of event that the phrase "CAT-apult" was written for.
