calling all pets.....

ok, so i lazed in the bed, snoozingm off and on, from the time the alarm went off at 6:30 am until 8...when the hour-long npr radio call-in show finished up.......couldn't tell you much about the advice given, other than the vet on the show advised a caller with a hesitant cat to count to three each time she opens the door for the cat to go in or out...and if the cat has not moved by the count of three the door is to be shut.....the cat will (theoretically) learn to go out before three is called.....which shortens the pet owners wait time......may have to try this with our hesitant feline.....i did have a good night sleep...despite staying up til midnight watching lotr/the two towers......with my daughter up way past her bedtime......i suppose we stayed up because there was nobody else at home to tell us not to do so......an eerie insight into what life could/would be like without a counterpoint presence in our lives......the movie took so long because i wanted to watch the end of the nyy-bosredsox game on fox....which took 3.5 hours because the 7th inning lasted so very long........the nyy are falling apart, and even though they are not my favorite team i did feel sorry for them in the 7th inning......especially when their 1st baseman was injured in a quirky accident......the only constructive thing i did with my day off was to walk twice on the treadmill and to water my plants........no thoughts yet to any constructive activities for today......
