Getting some Orange Boy lap time while watching the Oscars. Leela claimed Tony’s lap. There is momentary peace.
An orange tabby cat is stretched out on a white blanket. A white woman’s left hand rests on the cat. An orange cat is seen resting on a blanket in the foreground with a tv on in the background. A tailless long haired orange cat is seated on a grey and white patterned blanket.

Last night, I enjoyed 40 minutes of TWO cats on my lap before they woke up and got back to fighting. Calling it progress.

Off work for a Board meeting. No bookstore dogs to pet but the view is nice.

Have the day off for a board meeting but took myself to the Speed Art Museum first to check out the Yayoi Kusama Infinity Mirrored room.

Just dropping a cat pic to say hi and that maybe I’ll do better about using this app.

Michael Caine as Scrooge in The Muppet Christmas Carol doing his little dance in bunting form. Clearly happy crazed at this gift from my bestie. Solid start to Friday night after a full day of being a bookseller elf. 🥰
