Well I had it
Well I had it coming really. Cato was wailing her head off this morning and I did no more than open a sticky sleep eye and glare at her. No breakfast for her then. Except for the humming bird that she slaughtered and dragged around the house. That's four in three days. The prognosis for the California humming bird population doesn't look good.
Bob Dylan was actually pretty good. It took a few songs to get into, as his voice is pretty much shot these days. He seems to growl more than sing, so the old songs don't seem as familiar as they should.
I've been reading a book about the history of the British Isles. Sam used it as a sleeping aide for quite some time. I can understand why. The middle ages was 500 years of kings called only Henry, Edward, or Richard who did unspeakable things to each others families. Choice quote: 'Isabella, with her lover, Roger Mortimer, captured Edward II in 1326. He was deposed in favour of his son and disposed of in Berkeley Castle, probably by a red-hot poker inserted through his anus, a means of death that left few incriminating signs (1327)'. Ouch.
