The reason I’ll probably get nothing done today again.

So many distractions, etc.

Someone needs attention. And a good brushing.

That’s our cat. His name is Gandalf like the wizard. He, like most cats, enjoys stability and sameness. Every morning, while I attempt to write, he’s behind me meowing after my fiance goes off to work. He’s relentless! I have to play with him or he’ll never stop. Eventually, he does and sleeps for a while on his box.

It's a box of stuff we never unpacked after moving into our new house. We just can’t seem to get rid of it because he loves it so much. We put some blankets on it so it is more comfortable. We think. Who knows really? He seemed fine with it before the blankets but we humans like to put ourselves in the minds of animals all the time.

My day is often filled with distractions like this. Thank god for laundry when there is literally nothing else I feel like doing. It gives me just enough sense of accomplishment that I feel that the day was not a complete waste of my time.

There’s a bunch of personal shit going on too that frankly is none of anyone’s business but it's keeping me and my fiance from getting shit done. Or I should say it's a great excuse to not…
