/me have a smoking, yet pleasant-smelling, star.

A cat who, shortly after this picture was taken, was rudely removed from her place as The Human made a fast trip to the liter chair.  This happend several times.  I got tired of this and just settled down at the foot of the bed—Explorer the Cat.

“The Human has a rumbly tummy. He had to stop the math rock game early. He's taken medicene, but it doesn't seem to be helping. I'm hanging out with him to make him feel better.” -Explorer the Cat.

Hmm.  That might explain why his mind went straight to “fairy godmother interfering.”  He knows that there is one “working” in the area. 

“It's time to do some houserunning.   Then eat some.  Then either help The Human or take a nap, maybe both.” - Explorer the Cat.
 

It seemed to have been moved. You might change the name.

“The Human left the warm thing on the floor.  It's a little nippy, so I'm gonna huddle up for a bit.  At least until he comes out of bed and takes it away from me.  Then I'll either hang out on the desk or sleep in the bed, which also has a warm thing that is probably on.” - Explorer the Cat
 

“The Human doesn't want me on the desk. He says that I'm in the way of him typing, and he's doing that more today than normal.  Meh,  I'll hang out here on the heating thing.  He's not using it today, so it's mine!” - Explorer the Cat.
 

“The Human is up early.  He seems to be working on something and is upset that the book of faces isn't working right, even by their standards.  I'll help him! He needs help. He hasn't been sleeping well.  He has his vets, all of them, working on that.” - Explorer the Cat.

Cheney's biggest issue was that he was the last of the Neocons.  Right now, I would love to have Neocons running the government.  They tend to be left to neutral on domestic policy and favor a “robust” foreign policy.  Having a government that thinks Russia is the enemy right now would be a good thing.

“The Human is very cold this morning, which is weird, it's not that cold in the house right now, same as it's been for the last 10 days or so.  I'm gonna hang out here in this basket for a bit, eat something, then get on the desk to help him write stuff.” - Explorer the Cat
 

“Look, if for some reason you don't want my hair on your hoodies, close the damn box.  And I was napping this morning; why did you get to wake me up? Just as well, I need to go eat any way.  I'll help you when I get done with that.” - Explorer the Cat.
 

“The Human is grumpy.  The rain starts in about an hour and a half, then keeps up for more than a day.  His knees are really hurting him. I'll bet he goes back to bed to keep them straight really soon. It doesn't matter. I'll help him or keep him company if he's in bed on not.” - Explorer the Cat.
 

“The Human went out to get milk. He had to go to two stores, so he's extra cranky right now. He will be coming to bed soon enough.  I'll cuddle with him when he does.” - Explorer the Cat
 

“The Human is moving sort of slowly today.  I'm gonna eat some, then come help him if he does any work today.” - Explorer the Cat.
 

“It's day two of six days of crappy weather. That makes The Human grumpy. Plus he had to deal with people two days in a row! His knees hurt. He's hiding from the world in bed. I'm hanging out with him for a while.” - Explorer the Cat.

"Gonna get The Red Dot!" - Explorer the Cat.
 

“You want this chair?  Go make breakfast and make sure my bowl is full.  Then I'll let you have it.  You should have gotten up earlier if you wanted to not contest the chair rights this morning.” - Explorer the Cat.
 

“The Human took that thing in the living room out to get some milk. The store didn't have it. He came back grumpy and says he twisted his hip, so he took some of his stonger no-pain pills and is keeping flat. I'm making sure he's OK and hanging out with him.” - Explorer the Cat.
 

“Shouldn't you be working on Project X or your space vampire slayer game?  Anything but bothering me while I try to nap. You could even watch videos.  Bust some myths, or pretend you used to be a spy, but leave me alone.  Please.” - Explorer the Cat
 

Dear Microsoft:

I installed an IDE and a C/C++ compiler.  Why did I need to reboot to finish the install?
The more I get back into Windows, the less I like it.

Tara vs. Col. Sanders indicates that brute force might work.  Previous immortal arrengance was because they could always run away to the spiritual plain.  That can't do that now.

Didn't she just have a big movie?

Oh, I am. I got a lot of work done on Project X.
