 Me-usings and Me-emories

20 August 2020 - Several days ago I mentioned the need in my job to stroll through the middle of a room.  And you're thinking, "what a cushy assignment".  Actually these patrols are never a straight line from one edge to the opposite, instead resembling that comic-strip kid's meander about his neighborhood.  To be thorough, and we cats insist on this, one must peer under things, insert a nose into crevasses, take the pulse of objects that have moved since last inspection.  And to rush this process is to miss the subtle signs of an interloper.  So forgive me for being a meticulous guard and a never-sleeps-on-duty sentry, and I'll try to overlook the snickers and rolling eyes.

  1. glad to hear that you've shifted from skirting-the-baseboard investigations to full-room investigation!

  2. next thing you know, you'll be curled up in the corner of the couch, taking a well deserved break from patrolling!
