Gave #HazelTheInternKitty treats for #book bundles sold (on the upturned chair she claimed after we moved), but in "nearness to #kitty" dumbness I took a picture & not a video.
But have no fear, well-earned treats got cronched.
Final day for the Hidden Gems sale:

Seems I left my cozy sweater on the bed and someone made a choice.

A man holding a beer while another man leans in suggestively. Eric Idle and Terry Jones in the "nudge nudge" skit, but I've put my cat's face over Eric Idle.
"Does she go? Does she ... dangle?"

Staying with fam and I tried to sneak this creature upstairs while no one was home, but she just yelled at me in the basement doorway until I came downstairs to play.

Seriously.
She would visit and #HazelTheInternKitty would purr across the room & she'd be like "Why is she purring like that?" And I'd be like, "She is a Muppet."
Then she'd be like, "Why is she looking at me like that? Is she going to attack?" And I'd be like, "No, she is a Muppet."

Updating my mom's laptop I gave her after I bought a new one -- while watching Goon because I live in Canada and Goon is on TV -- and remembering that my mom was terrified of #HazelTheInternKitty so I included a background folder of a hundred adorable photos of her.

Took a semi-spontaneous visit to see the 'rents and now I've been without my small intern ( #HazelTheInternKitty) for two full days and every time I message @jcparsons.bsky.social I'm like...

While her tree is currently in the kitchen because we've just moved and everything is nowhere, #HazelTheInternKitty is taking a sabbatical from her position as editing and writing assistant to explore exciting new opportunities in the hot trending field of toast inspection.

She's been a little out of sorts today with our place being upsot, being mid-eviction and such, so intern bonus was given sans fanfare.

Ahh, gooood, my little marketing minion, basking adorably in your box atop the dryer where you have made a mess of your supper, you have earned three delicious treats today.
You almost lost that second one.

Cover of The Lion, by Lee Burton -- a purple fantasy book with the silhouette of a boy holding a spear inside the silhouette of a lion's head. The blurb reads: "When soldiers come to his village, young Jad the shepherd boy, in his first true act of magic, inadvertently initiates the collapse of an empire." The full blurb is: In the beginning, when the world is new, Jad the young shepherd stumbles upon his god, and his god is an idiot. But before Jad can tell anyone, he and his friend, Tez, find a soldier from a faraway land in the river, bleeding from a sword strike. He tells the boys that soldiers are coming to take their village, and kill anyone who resists. Jad’s father says they’ll fight. Their god will protect them. The soldier says many gods have been fed to the expanding empire’s terrible god eater, including his own. If only, he says, the village had a Speaker of magic—who Jad’s father would deem a terrible heretic—only then might they be able to save their village. And the soldier is looking directly at Jad.
A very fuzzy torbie kitty is lying upside down on the floor, as viewed from beneath a chair, with her tongue stuck out.
I'll give my kitty a treat for every sale of my #HistoricalFantasy book, The Lion, I make in the #NarratessIndieSale this weekend.
First in the Speaker Origins books.

A very fuzzy torbie kitty is sitting in a box on a desk, leaning heavily to one side. A hand can be seen holding the box up.
Half the time I'm working, I gotta hold the side of the box so this muppet doesn't topple off the side of the desk.

I got up this morning and this ball of fluff was dressed like a young Mickey Rooney in my living room.
I don't even own a cat.
Just kidding. This is Hazel. She's great.
