Me-ow-my-oh!

Me-usings and Me-emories

23 June 2018 - Cats are intrigued by things "high", such as high-strung, high-handed, high-minded, even high-maintenance.  Not all of these apply to each individual, but I will certainly admit to a preference for high places.  I have succeeded in convincing the shorter peep to feed me here on my white perch.  Besides, who feels special when his dish is plopped on the floor?   Five feet above the dust, it is a good spot to lounge, to observe, so why not to eat?  Anyway, it suits me and, in a cat's mind, that is what matters.

22 June 2018 - It is hard to suppress a yawn, even when something interesting/pleasant is happening.  I would not want the shorter peep to think that scratching my noggin is a boring matter.  But this spot between her computer and the window is a favorite one for napping, so naturally that was what I was engaged in.  Even so, please don't cut short the hands-on attention... I can always sleep afterwards.

21 June 2018 - After yesterday's brilliance, today has been a quiet after-thought.  Neither I nor my peeps mind a slow day at the lake, in fact we each get jangled if there is too much activity, too much noise.  So don't surmise that we didn't appreciate the opportunity to reflect, in fact be able to hear ourselves think.  One might hope that something singled out with an auspicious name, summer solstice, would warrant fanfare.  But as we make our way around the sun, our planetary home progresses noiselessly through the void.

20 June 2018 - Wow!  The sun was up very early this morning.  No wonder I need all these extra naps:  the night is short!  I can make myself at home almost anywhere that is quiet and comfy.  The back of the sofa is a favorite spot on which to stretch out, as it allows me to look clandestinely over my peeps' shoulders.  So far their reading choices haven't caught my interest (not enough pictures and no Garfield strips), but I am always curious as to what holds their attention.

19 June 2018 - Dreams can be pleasant, disorienting, tiring, even frightening.  The smaller peep tells me that I dream.  I don't know if I do or don't, but a leg twitch sometimes awakens me from slumber.  On these occasions she would remark that I was on the hunt, pursuing my prey.  I suppose that could be the explanation for a sudden muscle spasm... and it isn't so ridiculous to be dismissed without further thought.  I know my peeps definitely have twilight experiences, as I have heard them mutter while deep in repose.  But my lips are sealed.

18 June 2018 - After the chaos of an on-site bridge marathon, the fact that today is muted suits me just fine.  The morning pastels, the post-weekend quiet, the beep chatter, all help me relax after a stressful Sunday.  I am not advocating that my peeps live as hermits, but would appreciate their selection of a quieter bunch of friends.  I am a good example of thoughtful roommate:  I never bring home the odd acquaintance... though truthfully it is mostly because I can only tolerate his company for short spurts.  No, I keep my own counsel (and haven't yet needed to raise my voice).

17 June 2018 - My backdrop is well lit, and I have already seized the day (my peeps will attest that I have been out, and in, the door many times).  Such an energetic seize was it, that I am taking a much-deserved siesta.  These naps are indulged in wherever the afternoon heat must be escaped.  That is not our problem here, but in a show of solidarity I join my tropical brothers in a moment of quiet.
