In which Saphy misses R…

We were down in J’s basement watching some TV this evening (before it got dark because it was AHS and that is scary enough in the daylight).  I brought Saphy in as it started to get dark because this is the mousing hour  and we do not want to repeat the experience of trying to catch a very small rodent in a very large house.

Saphy came and sat on J for a while (she never sits on me) and then retreated to a cushion on the coffee table where she very pointedly gazed at the chair R usually sits in.

So she is missing him.  I miss him too, but it is conference season now, and coming up he will be away in Paris, Berlin, Oslo and Malmo, as well as days out in Edinburgh and London.  So it goes – as I believe the saying goes  “If you miss someone, perhaps you should take aim more carefully”.
