Has it all gone too far?
So I'm on IM with Tyra, talking about dinner tonight. I leave the room to change the stereo rotation, and I discover that in my absence, Tyra and Teakettle (who's quite the feline keyboarder) have been carrying on a conversation.
Things have come to a pretty pass when I have to compete with my cat for computer time, and when my friends are just as happy talking with the cat as with me. Time to do some life-reassessment.

What's for dinner? And can I come?

Teakettle was just keeping the 'puter warm for you. At least it wasn't a family member you were speaking with. (Can you guess my identity?)

It's Kimberly, Kathi, or Beth--which one?!!!

The eldest, of course. (I had to tease.)

there's no competition involved. she gave over when you returned. she was simple--politely--keeping your virtual visitor company while you stepped out of the room. really, if my cats had half that decorum, i'd have them writing politeness columns for the populace at large. :)

Yes, but the very next day, Teakettle had an IM exchange with Sandra, too. That cat scares me.
