I dare not slumber where the right winds whistle.

I got into work at 8:30am after waking up at six. I of course woke twenty minutes before the alarm and delighted in tormenting arkady awake. She's so cute when she's three-quarters dead. I am drinking coffee with no sugar and nibbling on dry All-Bran for breakfast. (I keep some in the desk drawer for nibbling, you know.) When did I, of all people, go so badly off sugar?

Tonight, if convenient, we shall be fetching KITAENS from vatine's. Hmm, need a litter tray ...

Entertain me. Post something about COCK. (No fowl, domestic or wild, accepted for this purpose. We're talking phallusies here.)

Whooah bite! Whooah bite!

It is getting cold enough that I can start wearing the coat to work. w00t! Now I can wander Morden at lunch in coat and sunglasses and have yobs shout "MATRIX!" at me! Which is better than having them shout "PIMP!" Probably.

The buggery bollocks pet shop seems to have vanished, so I'll need to stop at the one in Walthamstow on the way home for a litter tray. I did get a litter tray scoop and a couple of flea collars. Which specify minimum age as 12 weeks ... the kitaens are 8 weeks old. D'oh.

Dirty old town.

May I just second, third and fourth that.

The purpose of the World Wide Web is to put up pictures of your cats.

I stopped at Asda and grabbed a litter tray, litter tray liners and some wet and dry food. arkady got to my place just after I did. redcountess was too *splat* to come, so Arkady and I went to Romford to fetch the kittens. We grabbed the grey boy and the black girl and got a minicab home. The girl was smart enough to lie on her stomach the whole way; the boy kept trying to stand up and puked all over his sister. Arkady got several photos of them here. ADMIRE THEIR SPECTACULAR CUTENESS.

I have this habit of getting kittens when I'm getting up spectacularly early for work. Another generation of kittens are about to grow up learning that dinner is at 6am. Bah.

Name suggestions needed! Liz thinks Powder (grey) and Patch (black), but he doesn't really strike me as a "Powder." Arkady suggested "Silk" (grey) and "Velvet" (black). I have no idea.
