Hot, sweaty, and snoozy, that’s me.

Well, is this all there is?  Am I going to have to recline on this couch for the next few weeks just wishing for a garden or somewhere outside to roam?  Still, when the temperature is close to 100, who wants to go out gallivanting, I ask you.

So if I am a bit boring every now and then, it’s because of the heat.  Have you ever seen those pics of lions in Africa just lounging under trees and swatting flies and purring and looking languid and louche, whatever that is.  Actually, I just looked it up and it means disreputable but in an appealing way.  Well, that could be me, too, except I am not really that disreputable, but I am languid in this heat and I’m thinking this is about it for action during June and July and August.

Loulou, I know just how you feel.

But…mama and papa are going to visit papa’s son’s family and play with those bad grandkids for a week and guess what I am going to do?  STAY PUT.  No seasick ferries for me.  Not cage-in-a-car for me.  No moving me all around until I don’t know which end is up!  I am having Mya’s mama kittysit me and I know just how she is going to feel with no Mya here to cuddle and caress, because guess who will be the STAND-IN? Hah. You guessed it. Yours truly will get ALL of the attention that wiggling doggy gets plus any number of treats and snuggles and cuddles and massages of the ears and jaw and rubs on the tummy.  WHENEVER I WANT IT.  And THAT’S what mama and papa are leaving me behind to enjoy.  I wouldn’t be caught dead on a hot beach in Sicily walking over hot pebbles and getting splashed by over-zealous little anthros with…ECH…WATER!

But until then, as in today and a few days from now, I am queen of the couch-kitties, weathering this heat wave with all the snoozing I can muster.

I hope it’s cooler where you are but if not, take it from me.  Snoozing is the only solution.

That and an occasional mojito…

Whatever that is.
