Cordpocalypse

The cords behind the DVR and DVD player have been bothering me for a while now. When something like that annoys me, it becomes impossible to clean around it, so I’ve been ignoring my living room and letting stuff pile up. Ugh. Mostly the problem was finding a cheap solution for the electronics that hid some of the cords. Which I now have, so today was Cord Taming Day. It’s still not great, but at least it doesn’t look like someone vomited cables all over my living room.

Nests

I thought I posted these here, but I guess not. The other morning, while I was in the shower, Harriet dragged the comforter off the bed, into the living room, and made herself a nest. Miss Brown is all about Teh Comfortables, but it was 5am and a little early for me to find it amusing.

Nest-making is something she does fairly regularly. Her most amazing nest was made from two brand spanking new bags of shaved pine cat litter. I thought for sure that cat litter would be of no interest to her, so I left them sitting beside the couch when I went to work. I came home to a mound of cat litter with a Boxer-shaped depression in the center. Again, not very amusing!

These are a few years old. Some things never change, though.

She’d dragged two blankets from a Rubbermaid tub in my bedroom into the studio, and built herself a cozy little nest in the middle of my studio floor. Not bad, considering she doesn’t have opposable thumbs.
