Seeing "Yay, fleas!" following a succession of cat posts caused a moment of confusion.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Dean will follow me around at times. Usually when I get home from work. He's like a little puppy dog, and sometimes I'll be mean and back and forth to see him catch up.
Although I have stepped on him once or twice because I didn't realize he was behind me.
He's much more affectionate than his sister Maddie. He defintly wants to be petted and get on my lap, that is until the lights go out. Then he runs off the bed and goes somewhere. Maddie isn't much of a lap cat, but she will get in bed at night or in the morning and want some affection.

Because books.
I certainly got used to being climbed on and followed and interrupted with the kids, but our last cat was another truly aloof loner, until he was old.
Switch is adorable and very vocal, and has this attitude like, "We're partners! Best buds! We're going to the kitchen? Awesome! Wait up!" He trots very much like a puppy, too.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
bon- yes! They love hanging out when we are in the office. Stepping on the keyboard, wanting to sit in laps, investigating whatever that pile of papers is.
Kripkat is obsessed with the printer (like many cats, I know). He acts like it's his personal deity. (And his holy son is the DVD player.) He jogs to the office just in case we'll be printing in there.
You guys understand you're describing a nightmare for me, right? I read all the clingy cat stories and it makes the hair on the back of my neck stand on end.
But they're super cute, and pleasing to the touch, and they love you. It cannot be understated how nice it is that they love you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Seeing "Yay, fleas!" following a succession of cat posts caused a moment of confusion.
Ha ha! I meant hooray for the flea family and their new car.

Cortez *loves* the printer. Things shoot out of it! Which clearly need to be attacked!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Took my folks to the National Postal Museum. Interesting, though I suspect my dad enjoyed it more than the rest of us, as he is a major stamp collector.

Oh, I've been there! It was neat.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
While mac has been at the birthday party, I went and bought 2 pairs of shoes, some Indian outfits, and two saris to use as shears in the new house. Yay.

Dean likes to knock things over. Especially cups and glasses with anything in it. So I always have to be aware of where my glass is and sometimes I have to hold it.
I can tell when he gets really bored, he starts systematically knocking everything off tables.
Luckily he's easily distracted by the Squeaky Toy being tossed in the play cube/tube set up I have.
