That's my other half mocking Marty with the gruff "eh" sound in the background

In the Office
Today is Wednesday and Wednesday is an in-the-office-day. Welcome to Wednesday in the office. Here’s a cat:

Did you see the season premier(s) of Star Wars Andor last night? Three episodes. I watched them all before I conked out for the night. I only got about five hours of sleep because somehow I managed to get up when my alarm went off without hitting snooze 10 times. How did I do that?
My spoiler free review of Andor season two episodes one through three, which covers the year BBY4 (four years before the first Death Star battle from the original Star Wars movie [so… 1973? Haha!]):
I dug these three episodes so much that I cannot wait for the next three episodes that are coming out next Tuesday!
There you go. There’s my review. Let’s celebrate with another cat pic:

I took that picture last night while sitting up in bed watching Andor on my laptop. The cat is laying against my foot. Perv.
Okay. Time to publish this puppy and dig into that customer issue that I am covering while the assigned programmer is on vacation. Nose to the grindstone. Crack that whip (give the past the slip).
Pax is all snuggled down in her nest of blankets. Time to say goodnight, or good day, to all our Mastodon and Fediverse friends!
Meetings
File this one under first world problems.
I just want to have some lunch. I usually break at 1:00pm but I was added to a meeting at that time. I punted lunch to 2:00pm but when the 1:00 ended I was added to a 2:00. I tried to reschedule my 3:00pm but I needed to keep it in place.
Dude… I just want to go to lunch. Why can’t I go to lunch? It is 5:00pm now and still no lunch. At least I will be able to have dinner soon.
What a day! Here’s a cat.

Holiday Schedule
I took this picture yesterday. Not sure why I am posting it now, but I am… so there.

As mentioned in a post from nearly 24 hours ago, yesterday was a holiday in Massachusetts. Patriots Day. In my neighborhood, Tuesday is trash day. I got up early and got everything ready and opened the door to walk outside with a big trash bag and as the door was swinging in toward me, I remembered that whole holiday thing. The holiday trash pickup schedule punts our Tuesday to Wednesday. Aw, hell. I hate when I forget about that. I took the barrel out to the street anyway. Tomorrow’s an in-the-office day. Taking the barrel out now saves me about three minutes tomorrow morning. Yippee.
Now, onward to another super fascinating Tuesday. Yippee, again.
Pax would like to go to sleep, but one of her siblings is annoying her.
It's hard to sleep when those pesky wandering marauders are around!
Goodnight, or good day, to each of you!
Pax is still tired from yesterday's antics. She's gonna lay low for a while.
Good morning, afternoon or evening to you! Have a happy #Monday!
Pax had a good day today, and she hopes you did, too!
Goodnight, or good day, from all of us to all of you.
Easter
Insert joke about a zombie giving up his weekend for our sins.
The plan is to visit Jen’s mother and step father today. It will be a lovely day, I am sure. They have a new cat. The resemblance to our cat Robin is striking. I expect I’ll use the wrong name at least once or twice.
Until then here is a photographic study. First, we have two cats who were pretending to be asleep as I snuck up on them with my camera.
Awake Lily:

Awake Robin (also, today’s photo a day picture winner):

Then a couple of hours later I returned to the scene of the crime and found both of them actually sleeping.

Cuteness overload. Happy Easter from my cats to yours.

Pax hopes you are encouraged today.
To all who celebrate, Happy Easter! And a happy Sunday to all!
What Are They Looking At
There were two turkeys right outside the window. One of them kept puffing up its feathers and making all sorts of noise.
The cats sat in front of the open window, about 10 feet from these gigantic birds…
and their attention was absolutely NOT drawn to it at all. They were looking off to the left when the turkey was sitting off to the right. What were the cats staring at so intently? What was holding their attention? I don’t know. I saw a squirrel run past from that direction, but they didn’t move their heads to follow it. They just kept staring in that same direction. There has to be something out there that is fascinating them.

Will I Bring it Next Time?
If you had asked me two days ago whether or not I was planning on bringing a film camera on our next Florida vacation in June I think I would have said no.
Then yesterday I got a bunch of film developed and now I think the answer will probably be yes. I am so easily manipulated.

Belated greetings from Pax, the gang and me! The technical problem with the server that I have been having seems to be resolved. Let's hope it doesn't return.
Wishing everyone a wonderful day!
Forgot to post Bridget for #WhiskersWednesday. She was completely relaxed on my lap this morning before the roofers arrived. She hid for most of the day and only came out for her evening meal. (The life of a cat is hard.) #cat #CatsOfMastodon #catstodon #kitty
Sleep is beckoning Pax. It won't be long till she's in Lullaby Land.
Goodnight, or good day, to all our friends!
Me: I will just download this different terminal app to facilitate my life in small places.
Kitty: You need to know how to use Vim to be able to edit my settings.
Me: Grrrrr, seems that I'm ripe for learning Vim too now.
Pax is taking advantage of the sunshine today. Can't beat a morning snooze in the sun!
A late good morning, afternoon or evening to you! Have an absolutely lovely #WhiskersWednesday everyone!
