* Today was my RP date. We didn't quite finish the plot, but I got to run a little teaser for a plot I'm doing afterwards. The cats mostly napped through it. One or another would occasionally wake up and come to get a short pettin before going back to sleep. Hector only through one tantrum and it was short. After my bath though? OMG! All I wanted was to make a sandwich. I fed Hector twice in the half hour beforehand, the last time seconds before crossing into the kitchen. He immediately started howling. First I needed to do dishes. Howl, howl, howl. Then I needed a rest. I fed him again. Washed my hands, started assembling equipment to non-stop howling. I refused to believe Hector was starving to death. Discovered I needed to get an ingredient from the high shelf. Went to get the step ladder. Grabbed Hector before he could jump up on the counter to steal my food or spoil it. Opened the ladder. Grabbed Hector before he could jump up on the counter to steal my food or spoil it. Rooted around in the cabinet. Howl, howl, howl. Folded ladder. Grabbed Hector before he could jump up on the counter to steal my food or spoil it. Put away ladder. Grabbed Hector before he could jump up on the counter to steal my food or spoil it. Made sandwich and put stuff away to non stop howling. Sat down to eat. Hector gives me the death glare. Take a few bites. Move Hector off the TV Remote. Take a few bites. Hector stands on my shoulder and tries to steal sandwich, despite it containing no animal products. Want to know why I don't make elaborate dishes very often? Yeah.
* This just made me laugh until I needed an inhaler, so I'm linking it:
