Let there be light!
Mistletoe, resident computer supervisor, has her very own spot on my
computer table. I take two "bath sheets" (extra large terry towels), fold them into sixths, then stack them next to the computer processor. That's Mistletoe's spot. The table also has a swing-arm lamp with a 100W bulb (I like a LOT of light when I'm doing work stuff). The evenings have gotten a tad cooler of late (70F) so Mistletoe likes for me to swing the lamp arm directly over her spot so she's got "soft underneath and warm on top". The last couple of nights have been a bit warmer, so I've fired up the computer without the lamp. Last night, no problem. Missy snuggled down onto her spot with only the occasional "I'm here -- pet me" headbutt. Tonight, I had to do some work so I slid the lamp over to illuminate the papers I was using. When I got done, I turned the lamp off. Puttered around the house for a few minutes then came back to the 'puter for RPCA. I had just downloaded the messages when "Mee-YOW, Mee-YOW"! Missy jumped on the table, bapped the lamp back over her spot, then repeated her demand. Just for grins, I decided to ignore her. 15 seconds later, the demands were repeated. I didn't move. Missy walked over, put one paw on each shoulder and let fly with "MEE-YOW! MEE-YOW! MEE-YOW!, her face nose-to-nose with mine. The lamp was lit and she was appropriately stroked for her trouble.
