Oddity of Morning

Nothing quite as exciting as a loud 'thud' as one finishes brushing her teeth. Nothing broke, but Carter and Dresden knocked over their cat tree. (I figure this is quite an achievement, considering it's not too tall and rather solidly set.) My cats are ridiculous and awesome.

So, most every morning, I get up around 6, shower, feed the cats, eat, brush teeth, apply makeup, get dressed and leave around 7:40. (I've cats with black hair, there is no dressing in nice clothes until I leave.) This morning, on top of all that, I wouldn't get out of bed, drank mate, fed the cats a second time (I'll be home later than normal), cleaned the kitty litter (we're having to resolve some issues with that), picked Carter up a half dozen times because he was feeling ignored, rebuilt (twice) the packing boxes & packaging paper mound (very cheap cat toy, which they love), chased Dresden about, and washed my bowl (this is a new habit, I'm trying to get it to stick).
I was ten minutes early for work!

(you wouldn't know from my updating this, but I've actually been rather busy this morning, here at work, which I was early for. ;)
