I woke up this morning to a warm weight pressing down on my chest, something slimey rubbing against my nose, and two large black eyes staring into mine.
I screamed.
Loki screamed. Well, as much as a cat can scream when it's not being run over by a wheeled office chair.
It seems that someone got lonely during this morning and decided that ten a.m. was late enough to let me sleep on my day off. Keep in mind that it was after four before I went to bed.
So, I got up.
Decided to take the extra time to type up the page or two that
rewil had proofed for me yesterday and printing my copy for the "Big Book O' Stuff What Miah Wrote." I have a shelf of binders with my "scribbles."
Anywho, for reasons I may never understand, Loki considers the printer to be a threat to the safety of the household and as self-appointed protector he feels the need to attack the printer every time anything comes out of it. Before I could stop him today, he wedged his foot in the machine somehow and attacked the feeding paper tray. The machine went nuts and the paper jammed so far into it that I can't even find it. And I had to pull the cat's paw out of the machine.
And, DH has been gone since early Thursday morning. His brother got married yesterday and DH was in the wedding. I had to work.
Ever notice how houses always settle funny when you are the only person there? Or how, when you know both cats are sleeping on the bed next to you, you hear something heavy move in the other room but you refuse to get up and look anyway because lord knows what is waiting in the hall? Cause that's what's been going on at my house for the last three days. Oh, and every once in a while, while I'm trying to watch T.V. or type on the computer, Loki will stand very still and stare into another room and suddenly turn into halloween cat. You know, arched back and hissing. Tell me that's not freaky. I swear that cat is trying to scare the snot out of me.

My cats have a fascination with the printer as well. I haven't had to pull any paws out of it, but it is coming to that I'm sure.
