Good morning, world. I had a morning filled with kitty cuddles. Podrick came in when it was still pretty dark, needy. I pulled him under the quilt with me and fell asleep again, half giving him my hand, half simply preventing him from sucking my neck. Miraculously, he didn’t cause any shit, and we were able to sleep.
We had a nice Friday. Our main plan was a trip out to Slightly BiggerTown. I put on makeup a little late, so we got out of the house a little later than we normally would, not that there’s a schedule or anything. The first stop was the grocery store, as usual. I went over to the dollar store, but they were closed. We checked out a couple of the other stores in the plaza, then drove to the other side of town for our last two stops. We joked with the weed guy, grabbed lunch and drove home.
Shawshank brought home some study cardboard boxes with the idea to make a cat playhouse. After we ate, we each got a steak knife and hit the floor to create some feline architecture. I held Podrick for a little while while we got the basic structure assembled. Both cats spent the rest of the evening fighting over who could be in the house. With the exception of one brief point where we thought we might have a Thunderdome situation happening, they’ve been better than expected.
Shawshank is doing the closing shift today. He received a bag from Temu yesterday, which included a flowstar for me, and I’d love to get just over-toasted, put on some music, and play with that. I’m making pancakes to replenish my stockpile for brunch. I haven’t decided whether or not I’ll do any of that dressed as a clown.
