Title: I am a writer. I think.
Company: Sure. I'll make tea.

Bio: In my avatar pic I am holding someone's pet skunk somewhere in Oklahoma when I was four. I guess I have always been an accepting type of girl. • It is all about trying. Sometimes laughter is the only medicine. I am often, as I like to say, creatively confused. Although I am what some would describe as accomplished, I want to be a better being. I love as I try. • My work posted here is of course copyright Natalie K. Munden. • Oh, and did you know that some people take drugs in order to experience vertigo ON PURPOSE?

Happy New Year!

I was making great progress on cleaning off my desk, which is my goal for today - that, and getting on my treadmill. SUDDENLY, and it has happened before to be sure, my final stack of papers became unavailable to me.

I know, I know... She works for ME, not the other way around. I'll bug her in a few. She is so comfy right now! ;-)

A sit-in protest against getting things done.

open call, where i write, things on my desk, dwindling pile of papers, blocked by a feline

Amy: Where there is paper, there is a feline.

Vanessa: When she does that, it makes ME want to take a nap! She has left now for a quieter space, I'm certain. :-)

Oh to be able to chill like that - on, off or under a desk.

Classic.

Another desk kitty! How do you people get any work done? Scritchy scratchy, nice kitty.

Heheheheheh. Some king is said to have cut a chunk out of his robe so as not to disturb the cat sleeping on it. You have royal blood, Natalie?

I'll bet that you didn't know that I was telepathic to all things feline.

It is obvious to me that your kitteh is clearly saying "I am too relevant dammit!"

Love this, Natalie! It's hard to kick our babes off our workspace, or anything -- once Sophia is curled in the TV chair, I will watch on a hard little footstool rather than displace her. Oh, motherhood. Good luck with the purging! I've completely purged a huge four-drawer file cabinet, piles and piles and piles of papers, and more piles in the past 10 days. The cats thought we were moving, I'm sure, but now they're reassured as the boxes are GONE.

greenheron: Umm.. sometimes we don't get anything done!

Matt: I don't know what you are talking about, but We are not amused...

Gabby: I don't think anyone can be stressed while looking at a sleeping cat.

Fred: ! I think you're RIGHT!

Fusun: MUST you make me face the truth?

Smart cat! "Mom wants to have busy hands up here? Then I'll just make myself comfortable and wait my turn. Right there, behind my right ear please. Prrrrrrrrrrr."
