Sundry Stuffs
Tomorrow is my birthday, and I plan to be doing as much as possible of THIS:

(Except tomorrow besides my laptop I also have the new Dick Francis and Lois McMaster Bujold to read!)
I went to lay down for a bit last Sunday and read my LJ on the laptop while I rested my legs. After a while, I noticed that ALL FIVE of our pets had decided I was the Smottest Gurl Wuld and my fine example should be followed.
Painty is not in the picture, because when I hollered for Mike to bring the camera, it startled her and she ran to hide. She had been on my pillow just above my head, though, so she might not have showed in the picture anyway. The circle of spotty fur at my left hand is Climber. Then Cowboy, then Souvy between my ankles, and Tiger Jenny perched on the edge.
You might notice Souvy is getting pretty big for a 5 1/2 month old cat. (He is just starting to get his canines, so I think my estimate of age when we found him was pretty close.) His growth rate is slowing down now, so that his fur is starting to get a chance to catch up. Long fur and kitten clumsies can make for amusing incidents. The other day he was grooming himself, trying to lick the ruff under his neck, which is very thick and fluffy. His raspy little tongue got STUCK in the fur, and I could not help him get loose, because I was laughing too hard at the faces he was making....
I have been trying to rest a little more, and I have also gotten the bright idea to try charting my day and see if I can spot a pattern in what is making me feel crummy on a recurring basis. Don't worry, I know it's boring, so I won't be posting that here!
At the moment it is still Tuesday, and so I will post a Tune! Two, actually, since I messed up and sent the last one JUST as it was about to go stale. Therefore, here's a second chance at Peter, Paul and Mary doing "I Have A Song to Sing-O!" by Gilbert and Sullivan.

This is a good one to start off my next year:

"Carry the fire to the heart of the darkness,
Carry the fire each and every one,
Carry the fire, in your hands if you need to...."
Let's do it.
