"Do you want just one tear,
ordo you want me to completely puddle up?"
Bette Davis, when asked by a director to cry on cue.
_________________________________
This is Gypsy in her Diva Act. She uses this
act often as a means of getting her way or inflicting deep guilt wounds
on unsuspecting humans. She can sit for prolonged periods staring
intently like this into the eyes of whoever she wants to impose her will
upon, never flinching, never blinking an eye. If necessary, she will
muster up a tiny tear in one eye just to get her point across. If you
can bear to look in the eyes of The Diva and not give her anything she wants, then
you're a stronger person than I.
Blankets are important props in her Diva roles and
pink is her preferred color. Read
The Story of the Pink Binkit
to find out why we say pink is her signature color just like Julia
Roberts, another diva of sorts, who starred in Steel Magnolias.
If you have a diva living at your house we'd love to
hear from you! Just use the link to sign our guest book below and tell
us all about your own little "diva."

Footnote From Gypsy's Owner About this
Photo:
I have taken hundreds, maybe thousands of photos
of Gypsy in the eight years that I have owned her. But this photo
alone is my favorite to date. The pose with her head covered
with the blanket is so typical and occurs on a daily basis.
It is hard to capture on film, though, because it is
"un-posed" and not something in a fixed setting where I can
control the environment such as when I am taking pictures
with her in costumes. So, usually when she strikes this Diva
pose by the time I grab the camera and try to take the
picture she has caught on, moved and the opportunity is
lost. But recently I moved some rooms around in my home and
put my office in the back of the house and placed a new bed
for Gypsy right beside my computer where she often sleeps
while I am working. My digital camera is always sitting
right beside me at the computer because I use it often and
download photos. One evening near Christmas in 2004 Gypsy
was asleep beside me for a long time while I worked at the
computer. When the time came for our usual bedtime Gypsy
stirred in her bed and struck this pose, gazing at me
intently just as you see in the picture, wanting me to stop
working and go to bed with her. I slowly and as quietly as
possible reached for my camera and turned it on, holding my
breath because the look she was giving me was priceless and
showed me her very soul. I managed to pop off three shots.
Only the first one was any good, the results you see above.
I suspect it may be another 1,000 camera shots before I get
another one like this, if ever. But if you look closely into
her eyes you can see her love....
