Detente

Last night I fell asleep with a cat on one side of me and a kitten on the other.

Every so often a kitten tail would wave itself high enough that cat eyes could spot it over my stomach and there would be a low rumbling sound.

Still, I managed to fall asleep.

And then wake with a start about two hours later, depositing a very confused and tired kitten on the floor.

I got him back on the bed before he properly woke up though, and he fell back asleep in about three seconds flat - which seems to be a habit shared by kittens and babies.

This morning I woke to find a suspicious cat on top of a tall pile of boxes, watching nervously as a terribly energetic kitten dashed in circles.

I think we're all looking forward to Ed getting back, so one of them can sleep with each of us...

Shocking, shocking news

Women choose wealthy partners, men choose sexy ones. - one wonders what the conflation between "wealthy" and "good at something" is in that study.
Also Kissing means more to women than men - apparently women use kissing to assess the person they're kissing. Which strikes me as a good reason why so many women end up with appalling partners.

Interesting one

A long while back (at least a year, possibly a couple) I had a falling out with yonmei. She's possibly the only person on the planet with whom I'm currently in a state of "not talking to".

Yesterday, she added me on Facebook.

So I messaged her saying "Did you actually mean to add me, or did it just scan your address book and add me? Because if it's the former then I'll add you back - but it did seem like an awfully unlikely thing to find in my inbox..."

No response as yet.

I do like the way the universe keeps me guessing.
