Howard is far away in Albequerque at the moment, so I have been rattling around our big house by myself. The cats and dog always miss him when he’s away — I am too boring for them. One thing Oliver does like about Howard being gone is that he gets to sleep in the bed with me. This morning, I woke up squished between a purring cat and an unusually cuddly dog. It was an excellent way to start the day.
After Howard gets back, it will be my turn to travel. In the middle of May, I’m going to CERN (in Switzerland) and then a week after than I’m going to a conference in San Diego. About a week after that, I’m going home to Arkansas for a little while. I hate travelling, so I’m not really very enthused about any of this.
Anyway, speaking of Oliver sleeping in bed, is this funny or what:
Julius is all like “OMG, WHAT did you do with my mom!?!”
In other blog news of my pets, Oliver was featured on a really awesome dog photography blog, and Howard took some really cute photos last weekend. Well, the pets look cute. I am sadly not at my just-got-out-of bed best!

Julian looks perplexed. That is hilarious.
A couple years ago when Andrew spent a few weeks in Canada, I let the dog sleep with me again – for MONTHS afterwards I had to LOCK her out of the bedroom, cause she would force her way in, and shove him out – with all four paws.
