But it’s sunny out!

 

That’s been on the TV since about 8am. So I’ve done other things, read my new book: “The Goldfinch”, helped my mom cook lunch, and most recently, shaved my head and trimmed my beard. Outside, as to not make a mess. 

 

Last night, after saying good night to The Editor, and getting comfy on the bed to read a little (House of Leaves… yes, again). I didn’t feel like a podcast, I had a visitor!

 

 

Lexi, one of my moms cats came to visit. It made my whole night. They’d come up to me in other rooms to say hi, and let me pet them, but Lexi is most like Mal – very vocal, and lovey. When she came up on my bed I was so happy. She snuggles for a while and let me give her all the loves. It felt like I was back home with my little Malmal. 

 

 

I had hoped, that when I shut off the light, she’d stay and snuggle some more, but she didn’t. She had her other humans to check on, and went off to do that. 

 

It felt nice to have some feline contact. Just me and her. I’ve been terribly lonely here, and I think she knew that.
