NOW GO TO BED!

  1. Laurence,
    When your cats keep you up, do they stick their paws in your face with the claws just barely extended? Touch their cold wet nose to your eyelid? Go between the quilt and the blanket to the spot on the bed closest to your crotch and dig into the mattress with full claws like there is no tomorrow? Lay on your chest and put their nose to you and turn their head real fast so the whiskers tickle your lips intensely? Stick their nose to your lips and breathe real hard so you get cat-God-knows-what on your mouth? Poke you in the chin if you don’t rub theirs or stop rubbing their chin before twenty minutes have elapsed?
    If so, see if they are exchanging e-mail with my cats. And so far, I’ve only described one of them. Wakko, the human behavioral experimentation scientist. Whenever she tries something new and watches me intensely, I keep expecting to see a little notepad with pawprints in it next to the pillow.
    Happy birthday, Laurence! Maybe your cats will let you sleep. Yeah, right — well, maybe they will bore more easily today.
