What's your guilty television pleasure?
Last night (akshully it was like 2 AM) I went to bed and Miss Tortie galloped into the bedroom ahead of me. Most determined to stay. So I took my meds and brushed my teef and she zoomed back and forth, running around the room for fun. She doesn't get much chance to do that without getting beaten up.
She plunked down at the foot of the bed and snoozed on the electric blankie all night.
I woke up at some point to go to the bathroom, turned off blankie, and cuddled under the covers with purring floofy girl. Over the next few hours, I ended up pulling my head out from under the covers to cool enough to breathe, and then having to unbutton my PJ top to cool off. Her is a heat generator. Purrr purrrr purrrr. I kept waking up, petting her, dozing off...
Eventually she oozed out, went to the litter box and eated the last of her croncheez. It was well after noon, so I got up and Mr. LT made me eggs and bacon.
Purrr-fect Sunday. I have bills and crap to do, but that can wait till tomorrow; today was Zen Floof from Sensei Tortie.

Well, we've had a few blood-curdling screams with wrestling matches today, but mostly there's been much nomming, big meows asking for noms, and a whole lot of sleeeeping. Tortie's been on FDaddy's lap and TK's been atop the cat tree. So peaceful when they aren't fighting.
Him still hasn't bathed properly, but it's getting better. Still can't wait for his fur to grow in so I no longer have to look at his nekkid tummy and butt. HRT sniffed his butt while he was eating but he didn't notice. Hee.
Tomorrow I am going to the library and making my semi-famous beef and bean soup. The weather was awesome and warm over the weekend and now it's getting brrrr.
Flopped, sprawled, with little white paws dangling loose, both of them. Cuuuuuuute.
with help from TK and the peeps.
Tux boy BOUNDED up to me in bed just as I woke up. So good to see him boinging and un-coned. Skritched him and got purrrr. He seems to have had a quickie bath as his fur is marginally less greasy. But him's too busy sleeping or chasing Tortie to bathe much, and him doesn't care.
HRT is mostly avoiding him. She's chased him once today and vice-versa. Another time, he tore down the hall at full gallop, then stopped and looked back b/c she didn't follow. She must have head-faked him again and just sat there smugly. I didn't see it, but I can picture it. It makes him go away with less effort on her part. I'm glad she's gotten over her blind hatred enough to use her brains a little, for more sophisticated hatred.
I think I need a nap. Bet I can get a black and white companion. As long as I don't have to look at his hind end, which is still just Wrong.

to finish up NaBloPoMo, I am pleased to announce that
TK is cone-free!
We ate breakfast before we took it off, so we'd have one last meal without him snoot in our plates.
He wasn't quite sure what was going to happen when Daddy picked him up and stood him on the couch -- "Meow?" but was he ever happy when it came off. Daddy showed it to him, he sniffed it, and then went to his thump spot.
Him hasn't bothered to bathe yet (grooming doesn't come natural to him like it does to HRT) but he has walked around re-marking everything with his whisker glands and purring when skritched.
Tortie is hiding in her bathroom towel nest. TK chomped on my Achilles' tendon about 5 min. after he was freed, so him's already back up to full brat speed.
Video will need to be uploaded, edited, and uploaded again, but the de-coning will be up here.
Thank you for reading this year's edition of
excessive fun and food.
I am going to stay home tomorrow and spend much time in bed and not going out (esp. not out to eat, eeek, I had forgotten how expensive even cheapo places are!).
Also, tomorrow afternoon I will be skritching TK's neck after him gets the cone off.
