Eh, It Is You.

~

The Fluffy One sleeps near a window. Next to him, Babycat also sleeps. They wake up and look at each other. "Eh, it is you," The Fluffy One says. "You keep it over there, lady!" Babycat offers, "I was here first?"

Imagine my shock when I happened to find my Fluffy Son sleeping on his window bed with a lady tiger also sleeping nearby. Yes, I took a hundred photos. No, they aren’t clear. But look at this, look at my furry kids! I’m so proud!

The real Fluffy One sleeps on his window bed while actual Babycat snoozes wrapped around a lamp.

I know, you’re like, Lynda, that is your Slinky cat’s widow, what are you talking about? But look at the lamp. Tigers unanimously love that lamp, because it is a heat source and provides cover.

The real Fluffy One rests on a pillow in front of a window while Babycat and The Kitten stretch out on the couch.

See, now I’m just showing you random photos of my kids.

Babycat, The Kitten, and The Fluffy One all pack onto the window pillow, and you can hear me squeeing, can't you.

Yeah. That. That happens now.

They’re All So Cute Together!

The Fluffy One is asleep at his window. Babycat is sleeping on the back of the couch. The Kitten is sprawled out asleep on the seat of the couch, and The Puppy is sleeping with her chin on the arm of the couch. Overhead, the spirit of The Slinky One snoozes near his bro. I crouch down near the couch, hearts in my eyes, and say, "Look at them! They're all so cute together!" The Spider, hanging from a nearby lamp, says, "Wait 'til they wake up."

Okay, this all has kinda happened and they’re all very cute together when they’re awake, but, you know, it’s jarring having a wee grey tiger come running up in your face, especially if you’re a nearsighted fluff panther. Also when a puppy nearly sits on you because you match her favorite rug and you’re on her favorite rug, OMG I’ve heard so much hissing. They’re awesome, though. That window is their favorite. ALL of them.

I used to play as Brazil in Epyx’s Summer Games a lot, merely because of the country’s three-letter abbreviation.

The Ninja Twins saved me from a nightmare.

I actually own a ribbon similar to those used in Rhythmic Gymnastics. I thought it was a neat sport when I first saw it in 1984. So I’ve had the ribbon for about 20 years or so. I kick ass at twirling it. However, I get dizzy if I turn around in my chair too fast and am unable in any capacity to flip over in any way whatsoever.

So the cats benefit from my twirling skills when I’m awake, and from my lumpiness when they want to sleep.

I think it’s too late for me.

Then again, maybe not.

I really did drink some sleepy tea, and I think what it does if you don’t lie down within a certain amount of time is put things into your head that make you want to lie down and curl into a ball as soon as possible.

It snowed, and it was pretty, but I had to come in and do tonight’s strip, and about ten other things, only two of which got done. You can guess which those were.
