Although as bad news go, I will take this sort.

[livejournal.com profile] aastg calligraphed a note for me about a year and a half ago. The short version of the long, involved story: she and I had been arguing back and forth over the proper spelling of "Boeuf Bourgignonne". My French is rusty enough that I wasn't positive on my correction, but I kept mentioning it and then forgetting to check. Helpful, huh? Finally she made me sit down and look, and it turned out I was right. So [livejournal.com profile] aastg did up this note certifying me as a "Grade-A Smart Asse". Complete with attached ribbon and wax seal. Tres snotty, and verrah cool. We were planning to take it to the art shop tomorrow for a suitable frame job.

Unfortunately, Galen Mighty-Hunter-of-Strings found it during the night.

Fortunately, he didn't disturb the parchment. He just ate the ribbon and wax seal.
It's fixable.

Still... Aargh.

But he's so cute ...

I wouldn't worry. If the parchment's okay, I am sure [livejournal.com profile] aastg can fix that easily. She loves playing with sealing wax.

I think it's more "String-snake-monster! I must kill it!"

...he also eats the tails off his toy mousies.

Your Lovely Wife informed me of the incident last night -- pretty chuckalicious, actually. What amazes me is that there seems to have been no subsequent cat-barf episode (e.g. farmount's last post)..... Pas de probleme -- quelle gendarme vous le fix!
