Adventures in House Sitting, Part 1

I am currently house sitting for my boss, who is away in Florida. Where it is warm. And not freezing. Or full of snow...but I digress.

The house that I am sitting contains one dog and one cat. We all know how I feel about dogs so I won't gush too much, but the dog is awesome. Not as awesome or as insano as my dog. But awesome nonetheless. The cat is CRAZY. In a good way. She enjoys:
  • sleeping in my laundry.
  • drinking from any source of water that is NOT her own water dish.
  • batting at the drapes...which she must do RIGHT NOW so she must run across the house and take a flying leap at them.
  • purring/licking my face/attacking my feet (which aren't even moving!) whilst I am trying to sleep.
  • licking the drops of milk out of my cereal bowl while I am distracted by the dog.
  • trying to attack the dog by employing the full body, limbs akimbo, giant ferocious leap but being foiled by (ie bouncing off) the arm of the couch.
Needless to say, it has been great fun so far!
