Galen likes to wash my face during the night. I don't enjoy it so much.

Partly because he has a sandpaper tongue; mostly because it's impossible to sleep when there's a purring beast grooming you. If I flip over onto my stomach, he simply switches to grooming my hair. He doesn't purr when he does that though - I guess my fur isn't as neat to him as my stubbly chin.

However, we've reached an accomodation of sorts. Galen jumps onto the bed (or crawls up from my feet, if he's sleeping there) around 3:30 AM. I put up with the grooming, pet the purring cat, and we're both reasonably happy.

Yeas, 3:30 AM is Still Too Damn Early. But the alarm goes off at 4 anyway.

What I'm reading: Harry Turtledove, Return Engagement

OOooh....which of Turtledove's series is Return Engagement?

[madbaker.livejournal.com]

His South-won-the-Civil-War series. This book brings it up to WWII, with the South in place of Nazi Germany. Yup, concentration camps for blacks. (sigh)

Cool! I was reading that series...but he takes too damn long between books! Hee!

I am sad the Boston guy died.

Yeah, Turtledove seems to be spreading himself thin with too many books - the South-won WWI vs. fantasy Civil War/WWI being the most egregious. I still find the South-won series worth reading, but I get it from the library.

He's just trying to help you while your thumb heals.

Bummer

Man that would drive me nuts! I hate it when Meep or who we have given her an American Indian name now, Sits on Bladder, likes to get my attention about 5:30 am. Its like they know when your bladder is full and about an hour before you need to get up. I am surprised that cat is preceptive...its Meep, she gets lost in the hallway...that is about 2 feet long!
