Endangered pleasure

Cat curled on a computer monitor

That monitor is flaking out and I’ve already bought the 22-inch widescreen ViewSonic LCD that will replace it. No room for kitties on that. Poor Alice.

cat curled in a fleece ring

The power went out early Friday morning and it’s still out. This was taken in the early hours of the outage when the house was still pretty warm. It’s down in the mid-40s (F) now. I’m writing from my dear sister-in-law’s house where there’s light and heat and (most importantly) wireless internet.
