Ok, here I'm sitting at my desk, working on a program for a class I'm taking in Basic.
It's all well and good.
I get my book out, put it on the desk, open it, and prepare to use the listed examples to complete my work.
Then my cat, Billie, comes in and decides she can help me by SITTING on the book.
Cats being who they are, I guess I'll just have to wait until she moves before I can continue.

My furball started doing Jedi-moves against my mouse-pointer when I was writing.
They have a sixth sense for finding out where your concentration is aimed at any given moment, so they can go there and usurp it. When I visit my mother, Theo always goes and sits on Mother's newspaper in the morning, just parks his ass fine and dandy, tail-tip over paws and all. "Oh I'm sorry did I break your concentration?!"

What is it with cats that they have to chew on things to figure out what they are? A few weeks ago, we found a few paper shreds on the floor in the dining room, where one of our cats chewed on the nearly brand-new wallpaper!

When did everyone here turn into 30-something single women, going on about the oh-so-cute antics of their pet cat? Eh? Answer me!
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

I have four hours left to write an independent report on "Crime and punishment" and I'm stuck here reminiscing about old flames. Mercy.

We had rain for about a week out here ... anyway, Friday afternoon I didn't completely close the blinds in my bedroom, so Saturday AM, the two cats pushed open the door to my bedroom, and jumped onto the window ledge so they could bask in the sunlight.
Well, the problem is my bed is length-wise against the window, so the cats pushed open the door, jumped onto the base of the bed, ran over ME, then used ME as a springboard to jump onto the ledge. And they're both not declawed. So, um, "OW!" It was a very sharp awakening.

I am thinking you now have the point to block the door better.....

That cat looks surprisingly like our family's cat.
