C-A-T, spelled with a B-R-

Galen was a serious pill last night. Excuse me, this morning.

Running back and forth, knocking things off the table, making a serious amount of noise and hassle. I think he wanted the wife to get up and play with him. This "sleep during the day, play at night" thing is really getting old.

We locked him in the bathroom at one point. He opened the door and let himself out.
(Note: this involved simultaneously pulling down the door lever while pulling the door open - it's a new trick. Damn smart cat.)

I got to bed late and didn't fall asleep easily, so I got... maybe three hours of sleep. Three cups of coffee and counting, just to get semi-functional.

SF reading habit questionnaire, gacked from Neil Gaiman

The purpose of this questionnaire is to provide material for a book called (provisionally), The Inter-Galactic Playground of Children's Science Fiction to be published by McFarland Press. The research is supported by the Eileen Wallace Children's Library (University of New Brunswick), Middlesex University (London) and the British Academy.

I didn't give this too much thought, but I'd be interested to compare to y'all.
