Have had tea and breakfast. Have caught up on news, correspondence, the Hydro questionnaire I was bugged about on Sunday. Slate cleared for work on the newest assignment. (Yet another epic fantasy ms. to review. I may have to take epic fantasy off the list of subjects I’ll accept.)
The unfair: Despite all this virtuous activity, I have a bad headache, am still suffering on and off from a bloody nose for no apparent reason, and the cold than began manifesting yesterday has entrenched.
I’m going back to bed for an hour. If I’m not back by lunch at the latest, send more cats.
LATER: Back and better, thank you.
ETA: Oh, and that Hydro questionnaire? We’re already so damned efficient that the best it could recommend was “You could save $63 annually by installing electric thermostats instead of using the old manual ones!” Gee, thanks, Hydro.
If you’re not back by lunch, I shall send Grimshackle. He will groom your hair and chew your fingers and stick his claws lovingly into your forearm every time you stop scritching him.
Damn, missed the opportunity to send Tybalt, Miho and Baron.
You wouldn’t even have had to send them back!
*innocent whistle*
Ooh, that bad these days?
Ha! You lot still have to send your cats over. Mine take the initiative on their own now.
I just couldn’t decide which one was the least whiny. Normally I’d say Baron, but he’s such a spaz it more than makes up for it. And Miho wins special consideration for waking me up at 5am every day.
What is this Hydro questionnaire of which you speak? It sounds interesting.

You may not have gotten one in the mail because you haven’t lived in your residence for a full year yet. There’s a real push at the moment for residents to complete them because for every account that does for the first time, the municipality get $35 dollars to use in their town. We did one the year after we moved in, so I’m extra annoyed at the snarky Hydro guy who disturbed me on Sunday because the city won’t get $35 for us. Whatever.
