Why is it that when a cat comes over to me wanting to be petted, I feel compelled to pet the cat for as long as it wants?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well, that's the thing, tommy -- cats think they're in charge. I prefer dogs that way.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
For those who like that sorrrt of thing, SNL has a pirate convention sketch tonight. Pretty silly.

Ah, the cat is back. Not my cat, btw. I am crashing in the spare bedroom at a friend's house. Whenever I do this, the cat shuttles several times between this bedroom and my friend's bedroom, thus getting extra petting, scritching and snuggles. It's weird - the cat is completely black, so I can't see him at all when the light's out. He can see me though - at least well enough so he can find my hand and push his head against it - the universal cat sign for, "Pet me, dammit! Oh, and do that scratch-behind-the-ears thing that I like."

Now tagless for your comfort.
Anyone remember the US Touching Evil? Who killed the child-abductor in it?
I remember it, and you and I were probably the only people who watched most of it, and I don't think they ever resolved that question. I remember the confession scene in the British version vividly.
The US and UK versions are running together in my head but I thought he committed suicide in the US version. I could be wrong.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
well, 20 min. after going to bed, it became clear that the leg pain was not going to allow sleep anytime soon. A damp washcloth and a heating pad mostly fixed things. And the cats were amazed by this warm square of the covers.

silly cats! Maceo got mad at me last night because I kicked him off the bed. And now he won't come and snuggle.
Sigh.
Off to class today.
