... but a skinny black cat just walked through my yard.
Add to this the regular (delightful) patrols from a Very Serious black and white cat, and I have to say, if the latter was a little more zaftig and didn't have a tail, I'd be starting to wonder about visits from ghosts.

This has always been a favorite song, also, too.

@Ocean: At the risk of sounding like Dr. Suess, The Cat In The Back looks disturbingly like my old favorite girl. Only facial difference: mine's black spots were just a little less symmetric.
Thanks for the link. It's a pretty picture, and I don't remember seeing it when it was first posted.
@rishigajria: Thanks for that. I don't think I've ever heard that version before.
To be honest, though, despite my everlasting fondness for Megadeath due to one of the best album titles of all time, I think that this one suffers from the same thing that bothers me about a lot of covers done by heavy metal bands: no sense of restraint, no appreciation for the power of empty spaces.
Disclaimer: I am aware that I am subject to posturing and pretentiousness in this realm.
