Miscellany of a Cheshire Cat

Monster Cat reminds us that Freedom is to be treasured - Freedom from Tyranny, Freedom from Religious Oppression, Freedom from Fear, and Freedom from Plastic Cones around our Heads.

It was a little over a year ago that he went through the hilarious yet traumatizing ordeal from which this comic was born. I’m not sure the actual anniversary is important since Monster Cat didn’t become a regular comic until January of this year, but it’s interesting to note that every once in a while Tennyson still walks with a rather pronounced limp. It doesn’t last more than a few steps usually so I’m not worried. He could be just a little stiff from time to time… or he could be faking it for attention.

So Mr. Paw is taking a quick break from his grueling interview schedule to do a little grooming. He really does love being brushed, though he doesn’t always cooperate in a way that’s actually helpful. It’s hard being a cat in a big fur coat all summer around here! Now he has put himself directly behind my (rolling) desk chair, sprawled on his side as spread as possible. Always the clever lounger, he is aligned perfectly with the fan.

What’s a superhero without a sidekick? Okay, yes, there have definitely been some. A lot, perhaps. But anyway, that’s not the point. I guess we’ll see what Monster Cat comes up with for options.

That’s right… my video card died. Annoying and money I didn’t really want to spend, but it could have been so much worse. This is actually the first real maintenance I’ve had to do to my desktop Mac in 3.5 years. (Okay, I did upgrade to Tiger last year sometime and I repaired a problem with the hard drive on Thursday night, but the latter was an attempt to fix what turned out to be the video card. I haven’t actually pulled over my iPhoto library from my backup drive yet since the versions don’t match. I’m hoping to get through the next bunch of episodes with what I can shoot in the next few days. Of course, I’m going away the end of this week and will need to line up some extra episodes in advance… Good thing I enjoy a challenge.

And don’t think Monster Cat won’t mock *YOU* if you don’t do your back-ups regularly and get bitten in the but for it.

Yes, I’ve been traveling a bit the past week or so. Don’t tell Mr. Paw, but I’m leaving again next weekend for a few days on a road trip. He’s already chimed in on one conference call this morning… if he finds out I’m traveling again so soon he won’t leave me in peace!

Of course, now that I’m off the phone, he’s snoozing quietly on the rug. So cute, almost innocent and sweet, but I know he is just waiting for me to get on the phone again so he can “help” with our next meeting.

Poor Tenny - I really did tease him. Sunday night we got home from Las Vegas after midnight. Monday afternoon I left again for Connecticut. I will be home again tonight sometime after 9 pm, so hopefully he won’t feel too neglected. I’m bracing myself for a monster glare when I get home…

Sorry to spring such adorableness on you on a Monday… oh wait, no I’m not sorry. If it’s any consolation, this is one of the comics I finished before going to Vegas when I should have been sleeping or remembering what I forgot to pack.

(It’s technically Monday, so this episode is going up early to make up for the late posting on Friday. Yes, we’re back from Vegas. No, we are NOT married. We did see 2 Elvi and many other fabulous things. I think i should go fall down now.)
