Studly Doright was out of town last night, and I didn’t sleep more than an hour or so. This morning I enjoyed a shower then puttered around the house before going out on the back porch to read. Soon, I found myself dozing off, so I retired to the sofa where I planned to close my eyes for just a couple of minutes.
Two hours later (!) I was awakened by my watch buzzing indicating a call. I was completely disoriented at first, even flummoxed, having no idea of the time of day or even my surroundings. I managed to carry on a fairly rational conversation, I think, with the caller, though, and after saying goodbye I took stock of my situation.
There I was with my Kindle on my chest, my hair dried and sticking out all over, and a spindle of drool clinging to the corner of my mouth. Thank goodness it hadn’t been a FaceTime call!
I think the cats thought I’d died. One left a sacrificial mouse in my shoe:
Maybe their feline deity accepted the sacrifice and brought me back for another day. I’ll try to be worthy.
Peace, people.

I just loved the idea of their little offering to you, while you were to all intents dead to the world x

Usually they pounce on my chest, and perhaps they’d already tried that tactic to no avail. Thus, the offering.

Thoughtful of the cats to acknowledge your need for a nap. Perhaps they anticipated you would want to play once you woke up?
Those sorts of naps never leave me very refreshed. I think it’s the waking so abruptly. It wipes out all the benefits of sleep.

That was the case with this nap. I never functioned like an adult yesterday. More like a disgruntled toddler.

The cats probably stared at you for a while wondering what to do.

They’re probably wondering how long they must wait before they can eat me!

You’d better be – otherwise, they might bring you something else.

One of my biggest fears is that I’ll have a lizard dropped on my face in the middle of the night.
