Nap nap. That's what I need. Sans cats.

Too early for a drink.

I liked the first house we saw, sort of. Brick, split foyer, two fireplaces, 1/2 acre lot (are we detecting a pattern here?) But custom-built by people with little or no taste, in 1963, with the original decor. I haven't seen furniture like that since my grandmothers died.

We got home and were reviewing brochures (all the agents have color printers and digital cameras, so they all print colored brochures now) and Chris said he didn't like it. I just LOOKED at him, that's all, I swear, and he fell to the floor, curled up into a fetal position, and started sucking his thumb.

I think it's starting to get to us.

Paul, despite your professed uneasiness in the presence of published authors, I do hope you are planning to become one yourself, by publishing all your various cat tales! Ailurophiles all over the country would eat them up, literally. Trust me on this one. (Suggested title: Cats o'Nine Tales.)

And if you are not thinking of publishing them, you had better copyright them fast! Otherwise, I just might pirate them, and put them out under my own name..,heh, heh, heh, heh, heh......

Gaugs,
One of your best! I made Dan come in and read it. You are a treasure.
"Curled up like a croissant"- you just have no idea what you're doing, and how incredible you are, do you?

Oh great! McKinley has been crying at the back door, standing up leaning on the glass, and MJ's telling him to go away, and he's crying really loud.

Really loud.

It sounds like he's right here.

I get up and go look at the back door, and he's opening his big mouth, but it can't be that loud, so I come back and sit down, and it keeps going, and I look down, and there's a KITTEN UNDER MY FEET!

ANOTHER ONE!

SCREAMING HIS HEAD OFF!!!

Oh.

Jeez.

I said to MJ, "Is this the one that's dead?"
