It's a good thing they are cute

So I got woken up this morning at 3:30ish by Tzar. He was in the shower in the masterbath... singning.

He's done this before. At the apartment he'd sit in the kitchen and sing. At the Doma he apparently likes the accostics of the shower stall better than anywhere else in the house. I still can't figure where he learned to sing from. I understand when Satin would sing. Afterall Miss Meirwen sings. But I don't unless it's at an SCA event and I'm singing with Dicea and Boogie.

But I digress. I haul myself out of bed and shoo him out of the shower and tell him to wait until daylight to sing in the shower.

I go back to bed.

15 minutes later he's back in the shower singing. This time however it's with musical accompaniment. He found both chirpy mousie and chirpy snail and brought them into the shower with him and he would bat one into the other and as they chirped he would sing.

*sigh* I get up and throw him out of the bathroom and shut the bathroom door.

I go back to bed. Only now, the other one gets involved. See, if Talia knows a door is a door and can be opened she wants it opened. (If she's never seen the door opened it's just part of the wall and she ignores it). So, because the bathroom door is now closed, this is unacceptable in her world and she spends a good 15 minutes "scratching" at the door to get it opened. She only stopped when I threw a stuffed eeyore at her.

I went back to sleep but it wasn't the nice deep sleep I needed.

I am tired. And on top of it the girls in accounts are insane. T is being a trooper because C is still out due to her surgery and N, while back from her honeymoon, had to leave yesterday because she was sick. She came in this morning still not having seen a doc. She called and got an appointment for this morning and went. N. has strept throat and a double ear infection. (Not a good diagnosis for me - I get both too easily) and is out. And tomorrow is month end. T is going a bit nuts. Don't blame her. I would be too in her place. Just wondering how I can slip her a valium so she's not totally wigging out for the next 36 hours.

*G* Catses are eval. My Goodcat doesn't sing, but every morning she takes a bath in the tub. And badcat is like yours in regard to doors. Especially if I'm in the closed room. I can't go to the bathroom with the door closed without him appearing and clawing frantically to get the door open, whether to rescue me or get in with me I'm not sure. Once the door is open, he's uninterested. When he was a kitten, I'd leave the door open in order to keep an ear on a much younger TK.

We had cats that

would run laps late at night. And it wasn't just one cat, it was all of them. Not chasing each other, some of them had never met. But they'd all do it, including the tripod kitty (Peggy Ilene Dover). At sometime between 0200 and 0400 in the morning.

Our former neighbors had a cat. These neighbors were on the other side of my semi-detached house. After midnight, cats on both sides would run up and down the stairs in parallel for hours each night. I discovered this when I apologised to the neighbors for the thundering paws, and they revealed that they'd thought it was just their cat.

wakey-wakey!

Ah, yes, the joys of the organic, fur-based alarm clock. Mine woke me up at 5am this morning.

Ugh! That's why pillows can fly. I have a cat who does that (aptly kenned The Badcat), and who is frequently attacked by the Killer Flying Pillow of DOOM!

I miss my kitty, but I get to see her tomorrow.
YAY!!!
Even though she insists on sleeping real close to me, almost pushing me out of the bed, scratching the bedroom door if it's closed, yelling for tuna every time she has as much as sniffed frsh air through an open door.
She used to get tuna as a reward for going outside when we trained her to become an indoor/outdoor cat. She has now trained her people well.

I love her
