Yesterday ended on kind of a shitty note. I was in a pretty foul mood when I arrived home.
But the cats still needed to be fed. And when I sat on my bed after I changed out of my working duds, George and Jake jumped onto the bed for some attention from me. A little later, when I sat on my couch to watch the news,[1] Gracie climbed into my lap and purr-bombed me. Jake laid on the back of the couch, behind my head, and did the same
It's pretty hard to maintain a bad mood when surrounded by purring cats.
[1] I watched the news up to the point when they started talking about the Grifter from Wasillia, who apparently wants her own alternative reality show. If that's what rates being covered on a 22 minute evening news show, there must not be anything important going on anywhere in the world. It's so nice to live in a time without natural disasters, famines, wars and so on.... Oh wait, those things do exist. It's just that the boneheads at ABC News don't think they are as important as the doings of the Quitter from Alaska.

I say they should give ol' moose breath her show. Maybe it would keep her closer to her own home and out of ours.

Yep, sure is.
My most recent cat therapy incident involved poring over tax documents in a blue funk, and getting a head butt from one of the orange stripey beasts in my house. Cats love paperwork, of course, but this treatment was especially for me.
Good owners know when to give their human extra special attention.
It wasn’t that long ago that I thought that all TV news could not get any shallower, well I was wrong. The tide does go out further. Before we ridicule them; remember, they are at least paid well.
