Cats on the rampage

The three cats have grown very needy since Mom and Dad left. They seem desperate for attention, and it's impossible to give them as much as they want. Nothing can replace Mom or Dad's shoulders (where Xena like to hang out). She's trying to climb on my shoulder this very minute, but can't because I need two hands to type.

I'm getting my hair cut today, and I am very, very afraid. The idea of chopping off my long hair after having it in pretty much the same style for ten years is scary. I'd like it to have more of a style, rather than hanging there all the time. I will have to consult with my hairdresser about this. After looking through magazines I've concluded every star, with the exception of one or two, have long hair like mine, so that didn't help much. I don't know if I'll go for shoulder-length or a shorter bob. Like I said, scary.

Now Xena is tapping my face with her paw, claws only a quarter of the way out. I think she wants shoulder time.
