The crazies strike again!

Having my usual lazy morning -- being retired is wonderful! -- I love being able to wake up naturally instead of to the buzzing of the damned alarm clock and then wandering into the living room (after feeding Duncan, of course!) and just giving myself time to fully come to life.  I've never been a "morning person" and it takes time for me to get moving so this is now my routine.  Duncan, on the other hand, wakes up full of piss and vinegar and today he's having a ball racing around the house like the crazy cat that he is!  One of his favorite things is to run around the living room without ever touching the floor!  He comes flying in from wherever he's been -- right now he's on top of the sliding glass doors in the shower! -- hitting the top of the couch in one leap, then racing across the couch, onto the curio cabinet, from there to the windowsill, across the table in the corner, onto the snack tray (yes, I eat in the living room so it's always up!), from there to the book shelves, up onto the air conditioner (all of the air conditioners are in the walls here) and then up onto the top of the wall unit, down onto the cd stand and from there he flies out of the living room and on to the rest of the house!  Duncan with a case of the crazies is more fun than anything else, especially when his race across the couch includes a detour across mama's lap!  Life is definitely never dull with this clown!
