Here's the rub

[susandennis]

I woke up this morning and immediately started fretting about where I was going to walk or go or somehow get just the tiniest bit of exercise. Nothing I thought of appealed even minutely. I lay there and fretted about it for a good 15 minutes. This is just ridiculous. I think I'm just going to walk around a couple of blocks. I hate it so much. But I almost hate stressing about it more. Ridiculous!

Yesterday, Biggie was a bit lethargic. Not overly so but he just kind of lounged around not even bothering to knock stuff off of stuff.

Today he is the opposite. He has the actual zoomies which he has not had in a long time. I do not even know where he is right now. Robby is down in the sewing room finishing up Part 1 of the Friday Vacuum. So maybe he's down their watching.

Yep, apparently so. Robby just went back to his charger and Biggie strolled in behind.

When I first pulled the fish bed from the washer, I could not get it to stand correctly and it fell over every time Biggie got in it. So I got onto Amazon and ordered up a replacement. Meanwhile, I figured out the fish bed fix and installed the lights and all was fine.

But, yesterday the Amazon order arrived and while I knew I should send it back - I mean Biggie has more beds than Howard Johnson did back in his heyday. But I thought, well, let's just set it up and see and then send it back.



Ooops. Amazon's not getting this one back. It's way smaller than the bubble bed or the fish bed. No need for lights since it's too small fo him to have anyone over. But, seriously, cute. He stayed in there all night.

Next up is a shower. Then pick up the toys in here and set Robby to work on Part 2. I guess I'll do my walk around the block while he's working. Only fair.

Also today I need to find a new book. I'm at the end of the Michael Connelly's latest. It's a very poorly done audiobook - one reader doing all the voices except Bosch's (who's not even the main character). And I was not wild about the writing or the plot at the start but it grew on me and now I'm totally invested. My next favorite author, Thomas Perry, has a new one but it's not out until January. So the hunt is on.

I was wondering if you were stalled or still reading the Connelly. I shifted to Grisham which is, as you know, pretty good. I didn't like the reader too much until I saw it was Mary Louise Parker and then I loved the reader. She can do anything she wants and I will love it so I'm enjoying the book.

Biggie's house is cool.

1000% on The List — great story and Mary Louise Parker can, indeed, do anything and I'll enjoy it.

Is that the new Ballard book?

Awww, sweet kitty. He probably loves to feel 'closed in'.

That cat bed is so cute and Biggie looks adorable in it! :)

Cute bed.

I love the way Biggie is so enthusiastic about new beds. I just bought a new type of bed for one of mine and although she likes it now I had to use all my wits and cunning to get her to even try it.

That bed is ridiculous which means that bed is in fact perfect in every way. I love it and I love his mug in that picture.
