A Writer's Companion

This is Manon's favorite position while I'm working. It doesn't look very comfortable for her, and certainly isn't for me, but what can you do? She's the boss. She also likes to lie next to me, with her paws up on the keyboard, watching the screen (hoping for a bird or squirrel video.) Sometimes she encases my left thumb with her right front paw, and won't let go, tightening her claws ever so slightly if I try to pull away. It's like having a little live mitten on my thumb as I type.

Who could say no to those green eyes?

My camera came back from Canon repair today. Inside the box: not my S95, but a brand new S110. Apparently they couldn't fix mine for the price they had quoted, and which we had paid. This is what I call customer service, and it makes me an even more loyal Canon customer than I was before. I'm anxious to get to know this later version of these tiny powerhouse cameras; stay tuned!
