Reading, writing, teaching English. Blogging as an attempt to develop good habits.
It is difficult to get the news from poems
yet men die miserably every day
for lack of what is found there.
--William Carlos Williams

We have this problem at our house, too!
Handsome cat, BTW.
Thanks for compliment, Elizabeth! I'll be sure to pass it on to FatKitty. I don't mind when he and LittleKitty lie on my papers; I do mind it when they claw and gnaw them! It makes for an interesting explanation to students who get back their papers both graded and punctured!
