It's not a cry you can hear at night, it's not somebody who's seen the light...

Bought a cat tree house (the tunnels are not that big at all and I don't think Ariadne could even remotely fit in them but the rest is awesome) and they love it! Well the kittens were immediately convinced. They climbed up there before I was even done building it. I had to place Ariadne in one of the little cat hammocks and manually curl her up and then hold her there while I pet her for several minutes before she calmed down, but she hasn't moved since and she looks quite happy with her new sitting place. She's going to sleep in fact. See, baby? Sometimes when I bother you, I actually have your best interest at heart instead of just wanted to kiss your wee face because it is so cuteomg.

Also, check out the spam email I got (this is a print screen I took. It's safe to click!) It makes me laugh quite hard. I don't live in the US, guys. I didn't file a tax return. And much better on disguising your address there and even including a header, but still not falling for it. You sort of uhm...used some wrong words there. But you are getting craftier. Bravo.

The last few nights have been rough. I can't sleep again. Increased adrenaline makes for increased anxiety which makes for me staying up until 6 am and sleeping badly when I finally do fall asleep. I have a little dry mouth again and that's annoying. Huurrr. The social anxiety is still okay, I think! And I have finally gotten my head back into writing, YAY! Thank goodness for that. I missed it while it was gone!

Also thank goodness for our new cheese toastie machine. I will never eat anything else. And all the tea. I drink it. All.

Stop. Sneezing.

No really. You're losing IQ this way.

Evidenced by my panicking because something weird was beside me. It's a shirt. OH NOES, WARDROBE!!! Stupid...7 in the morning. Can't sleep. If I lie down, my nose betrays me, and I can't breathe. I can not stand that feeling. It freaks me out. I can sleep sitting up, FFS.

Also, about an hour ago, there was a bang and then a TERRIFYING SOUND like something yowling from THE UNDERWORLD and I FREAKED OUT. I jumped so much my laptop almost fell off my lap. And then I called for Ariadne and she didn't come. I shook her treats, and she didn't come. I was absolutely certain that a Hellbeast had eaten my kitten (my touch with reality is thin at the best of times, and now I am sick and sleep deprived, so yes, I am being actually serious right now...) and I started tearing the room apart to find her. She was behind the curtain, staring out the window at Yoko, the kitty from next door. Who apparently makes the same sounds when she sees Ariadne, as Lewis makes when he's having a nightmare and screams in his sleep. A sort of blood-curdling, howl from hell, intermingled with a death rattle/shriek.

Honestly, the most frightening thing I have heard, ever. This is the birth of Heart Attack Kitteh, cousin to Heart Attack Pigeon.

And Yoko is a lovely kitty! I'm just grateful that sound did not come out of my tiny widdle princess. I picked her up to take her away from the Hellbeast, and she jumped out of my arms and scrambled back to look out the window again. So I know where I stand!

Staying up all night isn't good for your brain, but I did eat chips, chicken nuggets, and watch Spaced! :D
