Saturday morning census

[rolanni]

The Saturday morning cat census here in East Winslow is:
Mozart in his hammock overlooking the Cat Garden
Scrabble on the heffalumps in Steve's office
Trooper, chasing his Special Green Spring up and down the hallway

The Saturday morning author census:
Steve in his office, tweaking and updating webpages, among other things

Sharon, still down among the commas, and hoping to be done with this part realsoonnow.

What's doin' at your house?

Sophie the calico staring at the cat carrier by the bookcase (it's a big one, these days used as a crate for young Ezekiel when he's misbehaving).

Zeke the Little Gray Terrorist in the scratch lounge by the glass balcony doors, watching the local bird traffic.

Today is the day I get new lenses in my glasses. I have been assured by all and sundry that the change is so extreme that I will likely be dizzy for days. This on top of an existing balance issue should make for fun times.

Good luck with the work down amongst the commas. The cats seem to have the right idea -- rest, work, or play according to age and inclination.

CatofSize sitting next to me on the sofa, trying to bat at my typing hands so I'll pay attention to him.

*pauses to headpalm him*

suricattus on the sofa, thinking she should get up and clean the apartment if she's going to have company. Ot ignore the mess and work on Draft 0 so it can become Draft 1.....

Today? Did some laundry, read some things, watched some old TV and some even older movie. ("watched some movie" is probably not good English, but it's reasonably accurate, in that what I watched was some of a 1940s movie serial.)

On a slightly longer time scale, doing pre-flight checks for Re-Reading All the Liadens, which I'm going to start on Thursday.

Fiona in the window watching birds. Ash is chasing some flying insect/thing around the house at high speed. And I'm contemplating what is for lunch.

Just back from high quality chatting at the farmer's market, grazing through the frig for lunch, caught now in the peculiar Maine summer frenzy -- "OMG, the weather's great today, I should be outside hiking/ kayaking/ bicycling/ beaching/ walking/ learningtosail/ visitingthebotanicalgarden/ goingtothebookfair/ havinganicecream/ goingtotheislands. Whew.

Emperor Pu An Yu is holding court under the bed, Miss Stormalinda is lying on the trunk by CAT-TV (the birdwatching window) behind the window curtain, and Mr. Jaks Cat is on the other end of the trunk outside the curtain. I'm in my office squirreling away, making hay while the sun shines, indoors doing an IC job because outside, where the sun is actually shining, it's 96F, and hotter than a $2 pistol firing uphill.

Here? Continuing to move my mom into a smaller apartment - furniture was moved yesterday, today we start trying to figure out how to get the leftover STUFF somewhere else....she will have to let go of a lot of her things today and it won't be easy.

And? It's hot and humid. Just so you know.

Hotter N Blazeses

Out extremely hot weather continues here in S. UT. Over 100 degrees most days. Unfortunately the tourists still think that it's ok to go out hiking around here because they planned to do that back home on their trip. Elderly couple found deceased on the trail going towards a very popular landmark called The Wave. Anyone coming to visit the Grand Canyon, Zion Canyon area cancel all thoughts of going hiking right now!! It's much too hot!! Make plants to go to Canada or AK right away if you want to hike.

Dogs of Summer

[catherine ives (from livejournal.com)]

Dogs are surviving by not going out much during the day. Dogs don't do at all well in the heat. After all they descend from wolves; cold weather critters. Staying inside. Consuming large amounts of water. I'm not going to talk about my evaporative cooler which hates me. If I say anything at all it might hear and that would be very bad. Glad to hear news of Confusion Factory cats who are lucky to live in Maine.
