sleepy time
We used to let our cats sleep with us, but after we brought Scooter home from the Dane County Humane Society two Christmases ago, we had to lock them out because Scooter wanted to sleep on our heads. I don’t like a cat sleeping on my pillow. Anywhere else but my pillow is okay, but Read.

scratch
Okay, seriously, I’m begging you for suggestions here: How do I stop a cat from waking me up in the morning? I’ll try just about any non-lethal method you suggest that doesn’t involve broken bones or blood. I thought I’d come up with a pretty good method myself: Feed them both just before bed and Read.

sknxxx!
If you thought you heard someone snoring in your house last night, it was probably me. Even if there’s someone in your household who snores, my nose was stuffed up so badly that, more likely than not, I was overpowering them. My snoring was cranked up all the way to eleven last night. I’m pretty Read.

OMFG more drivel about cats?
Bonkers sucked all the heat out of his cat bed heater. I’m not sure how he did that. From what little I know about electricity and stuff, the juice is supposed to keep coming out of the wall socket for as long as I have the thing plugged in, but Bonkers seems to have violated Read.

cat bed
I’m up too early on a Saturday, and I owe it all to Bonkers, the oldest cat here at Our Humble O’Bode, who punched me between the shoulder blades this morning, as he does just about every morning. I think the furry little sausage is keeping track on a scoreboard in his secret lair and… Read.

invasive brain-eating aliens
A nap seemed like a good idea, until I laid down and my sinuses filled up like a trash can left open in the rain. I need to be able to lay on my side in bed again. I used to be able to, before I got all flabby and started injuring myself just by Read.

Couldn’t sleep in this morning. I was trying, but when I crawled back into bed after a quick trip to the bathroom during the wee small hours, I heard a ticking or scratching sound, very faint but very persistent, in the bedroom. There was probably a mouse behind the book case or poking around in Read.

rough night
It was a dark and stormy night – “stormy” in the sense that there were many rumblings and flashes of activity. Somebody seemed to be having some trouble sleeping. Not me so much, but My Darling B was doing a lot of tossing and turning in the middle of the night. During the part of Read.

naked
Three o’clock in the morning, I woke from a dream in which I was the only person wearing clothes in a room with about a dozen naked people. It turned out to be more uncomfortable than the dream where I’m the only naked person. I didn’t know where to look. I didn’t feel like I Read.

truckloads
Woke up at about four o’clock this morning to a massive downpour, lots of thunder and lighting and cats walking across my face, not technically part of what one would normally consider a downpour but it was happening, so I note it. Okay, just one cat. The other cat was taking up all the space Read.
