Dr GB:
Perhaps. Oddly I dreamt about hurricanes again. (Last time I dreamt me, dad, and Cushca hid in a wardrobe). This time I dreamt that me, dad, Cushca, and YOU, Sleepy, hid in the shower at mine and Beardie's house. Which is odd. Obviously.

Chewing Wax:
Good morning lovely dreamers.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 6:32:21 am)

Sleepy:
Hello.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 7:17:27 am)

Dr GB:
Hunger....hunger....hunger.....
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 7:45:17 am)

Chewing Wax:
I'm going to take a shower now. Thank you very much.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 8:25:09 am)

Sleepy:
Have fun.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 8:45:56 am)

Sleepy:
So. Let me work this out... Those little kittens of Myk's should be looking good in about five weeks time. I could get the plane over in the morning, arriving in the early afternoon, mulch their little heads for quite some time - maybe about an hour a kitten and then fly back later in the evening. That sounds good to me.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 8:49:22 am)

Dr GB:
You think far too much.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 9:17:44 am)

Sleepy:
I'm thinking about something else now.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 9:20:20 am)

Myk Murphy:
good morning! the kittens don't look soggy anymore, and they're becoming quite cute. 3 grey cats and 1 black cat with a white stripe above its nose, giving a skunk-like effect. nice dreams, by the way. i had very strange dreams last night, but i can't remember exactly what happened.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 9:29:23 am)

Dr GB:
Oooh, tell us, tell us.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 9:29:28 am)

Myk Murphy:
i look forward to your trans-atlantic mulching, sleepy. as do the kittens, of course.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 9:30:12 am)

Sleepy:
I'll be purchasing some special claw-proof mulching mittens this afternoon.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 9:33:07 am)

Myk Murphy:
it had something to do with driving cross-country, i think. a dog may have figured prominently, as well. other than that, i don't remember. if i don't stop and think about the dream in the first waking moments, it goes away.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 9:34:21 am)

Myk Murphy:
the mother cat (not wax, this time) is quite trusting of her human caretakers. she lets us pet her while she's nursing, and she also allows us to reposition the kittens for maximum suck throughput (feline techie jargon). you'll need no mittens.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 9:36:24 am)

Sleepy:
I won't bring the hard, crunchy kitty snacks either then.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 9:44:17 am)

Myk Murphy:
yes, they're not quite at that level. you may, however, bring strongbow cider. um... the mama cat loves cider.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 9:48:01 am)

Sleepy:
And chocolate cake also, I'll wager.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 9:52:27 am)

Dr GB:
I am flagging. Help me.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 9:56:48 am)

Sleepy:
Caffeine. Do you have the strength to inch towards the kettle and to reach into the teabag box?
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 10:13:57 am)

Sleepy:
Wait. Did CW get out of the shower yet?
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 10:15:07 am)

Sleepy:
Decoy's old trick.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 10:20:08 am)

Dr GB:
The kettle is on. I take strength from your caffeine-related prayers for me.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 10:30:22 am)

Chewing Wax:
Hah ha!! It is me, fresh as a daisy and twice as clean!
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 10:38:22 am)

Squi:
I smelled fresh as a daisy once. It was a while back.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 10:46:13 am)

Myk Murphy:
that's how my cat looked before the birth. when i saw her walking around for a moment, i didn't recognize her because she was 4 kittens trimmer. clearly, she'll need chocolate cake to get back in fighting form.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 10:54:30 am)

Chewing Wax:
Good God it's squi. How was hibernation? I thought you were supposed to lose weight while hibernating.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 10:55:47 am)

Chewing Wax:
How many cups of coffee is within saftey limits?
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 10:57:09 am)

Squi:
I took many provisions with me during hibernation.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 11:00:35 am)

Dr GB:
I think Squi has lost some weight. Around the jowls.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 11:06:59 am)

Dr GB:
One coffee is the maximum for me. Two a day, tops. I am very sensitive to caffeine.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 11:07:14 am)

Chewing Wax:
I think I've had five, which is just about my limit, but I fear I've had six, and I may just flip... flipppp out.
(Wed Mar 22, 2000 - 11:20:19 am)

Dr GB:
Well done! You won't sleep now till about Monday, I reckon.
