Huckleberries Online

At least he’s clean

Thor is a clean cat
Thor is a clean cat

Thor loves to shower with me, but sometimes he falls asleep while waiting for me to turn on the water. It's a good thing he's cute because I wasn't very happy with him this morning.

Here's how my day started: Got  up early to get a jump start on the blog. Alas, I had NO Internet. Zero. Zip. Derek tinkered around. Nothing.
Then we remembered Qwest was putting new fiber optic cables in our 'hood today and we'd have no service.
I threw some clothes on, and ran out the door to head to my Valley offfice. Thor followed me.
The grass was wet.
Thor was fast.
And I was in flip flops.
I finally cornered him under the lilac bush.
I tore down Bigelow Gulch only to find that it was CLOSED past Argonne.
Yeesh!
Oh well, I am here. I am clothed. I am online.But I lost my mind somewhere on I-90.

What do you do when you have a bad day?
