S#10: The Royal Bedchamber
I enlisted the help of J. K. Rowling, Robin Hobb, Terry Pratchett and Eoin Coifer (and also a pair of stilts, some pegs, and a tablecloth) in making a canopy for the bed CJ and I share. My plan was to lie down and read until it fell over, but Ana had other ideas.
First, she explored.
Then she destroyed it (which took under 2 seconds – gotta love my craftsmanship), washed herself thoroughly (mocking my craftsmanship as I took a dozen blurry pictures), and settled down.
She was casting thoughtful glances upwards, so I decided to avoid seeing what happened when all seven Harry Potters arrived on her head – and I pulled the tablecloth down. She played dead at first. . .
. . . gave me her patented aggrieved look. . .
. . . and fell asleep.
Not piratical enough for you? How’s this cat (from coolestfamilyever.com)?
In unrelated news, I showered yesterday and shaved one leg. The surprising part is not that I forgot what I was doing until I was out and dry and featuring one alluringly hairy leg – the surprising part is that I haven’t done it before.
If you’re in Canberra, don’t forget to put your corpsepaint on and join the zombie walk this Saturday! I’ll be blogging about it this Sunday.

Thanks for the idea Jolyon. It’s on the lists (it’ll have to be a private party, since CJ and I have 5 Christmas parties to attend so far).

I probably have people coming over the Monday before Christmas. I could cunningly spring a Christmas party on them – just before logging on, I put it in my diary.
