One of Thea's more endearing little quirks: Playing with one of her Beanie Baby cows and one of her BB cats together as though they are best friends. It's usually the brown cat, but today it's the tricolor, the one they named Chip. (Possibly supposed to be a calico?)

I have no idea what this is about but it's always a cow and a cat, and she has an entire zoo of Beanie Babies to choose from. It's never the chameleon and the whale or the dog and the cat or the dog and the koala. It's always the cow and the cat.

She found one of the necklaces I made back during The Great Hemp Craze Of 2002-2003 and it's a swing. Both cow and cat are dangling from it at the moment.
