I used to think that my life would look like in the picture of the guy sitting under the palm at the beach with a computer on his lap.

My cat *is* my alarm clock. Every morning, 0730. It begins with quietly jumping on the bed and staring fixedly at me to get my attention. If I don't open my eyes, there's a lot of nuzzling with paws, against me, and walking along the top of me. As soon as I open my eyes she jumps off the bed and waits for me to get up.

Tom, this cat picture must be one of your most positive contributions in these forums. Still, the kitty does look rather disgruntled...
I can relate to some of these comics. Sitting here in my beautiful conservatory (had to look up this word, but well, a room made out of windows, warmed up wonderfully by the Portuguese winter sun), cup of tea by side, unkempt and dressed to chill, looking at horses and birds outside. ...

But the deadline doesn't care about me having a bad cold and today the Dragon understands very little of the stuff I am coughing into my mic. Still wouldn't change the freelancing life for anything. ▲ Collapse

Funnily, until I read Tom's comment, I realized that what I had read (in my mind) was:
"Tom, this cat picture must be one of the most positive contributions in these forums."
Maybe that is what Anna actually meant...
By the way, lovely cat, Tom. I really enjoy reading your post.

Nothing better than cuddles before breakfast.

Does she know when the clocks change? A friend's dog suddenly went from being a 6am alarm clock to being a 5am alarm clock...
