CPR 9-11-2012 THE AMBASSADOR CATSBY WAITS FOR A LETTER FROM EVELINA AND THE PROFESSOR VILLARS OF LOYOLA UNIVERSITY
Jay Catsby, in his capacity as Ambassador to the Imperial Court of the Emperor
Jay Catsby, waited all day today on the back porch on his Ambassadorial
Scratching Seat, waiting for a packet boat to cross the pond adjacent to the
back yard, which pond is also known as "Star" Lake. ("Star" being a Quinnipiac
Indian term which loosely translated means "Body of water that Lady Emma sniffs
at the edge of and occasionally wolfs down goose poop from"). It is Catsby's
understanding that the packet boat was to bear a letter from the Professor
Villars, of Loyola, responding to the Ambassador's recent missive addressing his
intentions towards the Professor's pretty Scottish Foal ward, Evelina. It was
Catsby's further understanding that this packet boat would be arrive by crossing
the Chesapeake Bay, traveling up the Quinnipiac River, and then crossing the
pond in the back yard. If indeed there are other bodies of water involved in
the journey, the Ambassador does not want to hear about them, as it will only
make the journey, and the wait for Evelina's response, longer. Regrettably, by
the end of the day, the boat had not arrived, so it has turned out to be a long
wait after all. Catsby, like most cats, measures time in units of naps, and
this wait was nearly an 20 napper, which is practically a full day. The
Ambassador feels the wait, like the naps, will be worth it though, so he will
return tomorrow to pine for the packet he is sure to arrive. Ah love. Ah naps.
