Nrgh my head
Y HALO THAR PANIC ATTACKS, MY OLD FRANDS. I had not seen you for a while! In fact, I'd nearly forgotten that I hate large groups of people! Hell, I made it all the way through Boskone and only had to hide in a bathroom once!
HOW CONVENIENT OF YOU TO SHOW UP IN THE MIDDLE OF WHOLE FOODS. IT WAS NOT EVEN REALLY THAT CROWDED DAMNIT.
So, around 4pm I realized I could see straight again, and I needed to buy the animals food. So I went to the butcher and stopped off at the grocery on the way home to pick up more kefir. Did you know grocery stores are crowded on late Sunday afternoon? Like, past 5? I DID NOT. An hour after I got home my hands were still shaking.
People In This House Who Like Kefir
A List
1) Me
2) My cat
Speaking of Murph, he was being adorable today. For me and him, playing means he leaps on my arm and bites and I then throw him across the room. I MEAN, NOT ON PURPOSE. Well, sort of on purpose. Okay, it's on purpose, but whatever. THAT IS NOT WHAT THIS STORY IS ABOUT.
So, I'm on the couch watching Return of the Jedi and playing with Murph. But then I get bored and lie down and ignore him. After flailing abour the floor and biting his own back legs for a while, he comes and sits by the edge of the couch. When I don't pay attention to him, he meows.
Thinking he wants attention, I reach down and rub his head for a few seconds. Only a few seconds, because that's how long it took him to get bored with petting and latch onto my arm and try to kill it. Of course I then threw him across the room.
He immediately bounded back over and sat by the couch. I'm all *ignore ignore ignore* because, hello, Ewoks on my TV screen. So he meows. I, of course, reach down to pet him, for I am a well-trained cat owner. After a couple seconds, he twists his body around and latches on. Across the room he goes!
This cycle continued for a while. My cat is so dumb.
Oh, and then! Then OH JESUS HE JUST POPPED OUT OF THE ROOF OF HIS CAT HOUSE LIKE A JACK-IN-THE-BOX AND THEN DISAPPEARED BACK IN D:
As I was saying, and then I was dangling his cat house over his head - he doesn't like it when we touch his house, which is a problem because he moves it all aroudn the apartment and sometimes I need to do things like get in my bedroom and his house is in the way, but I digress - just to see what he would do. He watched it for a while. And watched. And watched. AND THEN LEAPED UP THROUGH ONE OF THE HOLES AND HUNG THERE IN HIS HOUSE.
And then he wanted to share my kefir and I let him because really what sort of cat would like effervescent strawberry spoilt milk? My cat. That's who.
PS: MY HEAD HURTS
