Slow Seepy

[stickmaker]

I'm not going to gaming tonight. Blame my youngest cat.

I was tired last night and actually went to bed early for a Friday. Immediately, she started meowing for attention. That continued - off and on - for about half an hour. Not all that bad, in and of itself. However, about an hour before I planned to get up she staged a repeat performance. She also started knocking stuff down in the bathroom.

I didn't reward the behavior either time, but when she finally quit this morning I was too awake to get back to sleep and finally got up, still early. I'm so sleepy right now I've already had a temper tantrum at my coffee. (Long story. Don't want to talk about it.) I'm actually concerned about driving, so I won't. 

So, unless I get a substantial nap sometime during the early afternoon I'm staying home. Maybe even then, given the forecast.  

Weather's supposed to be cold, windy and very rainy all afternoon and well into the evening. Not good conditions for driving 30 miles each way, even with most of it on the Interstate. If the gusts the Weather Channel forecast last night are still on, driving on the Interstate would be Very Bad. 

Have fun. Stay well.

Update: I was in my heated recliner - shades drawn, lights off, under a nice comforter - just starting to doze off when the phone rang. It was my mother. "Have you taken a nap, yet?" "No, ma'am." "Well, try to get some sleep." "Yes, Mother." "Bye!"
