Perhaps that’s what they mean by writer’s block!
Of course they’re insidious…they’re cats!

Is that a can of Fancy Feast I see to the left on your desk? No wonder the kitties won’t let you get anything done!
No one has said purrfect!
My three year-old daughter just looked at this picture and the previous one and then said that she wanted to see more pictures of cats. I looked through the list of the last 100 posts and discovered that there has been a shortage of cat pictures recently. This was most disappointing to her.
They have evolved team work!!! We’re DOOOOMED!!
Clearly they have worked something out between them.
If you can’t update, how are you telling us about the cats?
ZOMG, they’ve learned to type. Everyone panic!
O Great Scalzi, how wonderful it is to see the Beauteous Ghlaghghee.
Except for another glimpse of your beshorted leg (or are those your big boy pants?) this picture is actually fairly decent.
In order to have taken a better image you would have had to disturb Her Repose – and intelligently for a change, you realized this was not the thing to do.
Given the circumstances we forgive the defects of the picture.

My wife is concerned that the blue bowl on your desk is your cat’s food bowl.
John, you’ve hit the Cats Lock key by accident.
A.J.: Just go to http://www.fark.com and search for “Caturday”, then click the number to the right of the headline…there you will encounter many pictures of cats. Most of which have been captioned to make the cats seem silly, which will probably amuse your three-year-old and annoy chang, who is not chang.
I note the contents of your desk – one-a-day vitamins, one of those pop-top air fresheners you see in the back of custom spray painted vans, two gel hand sanitizers, coke zero and what I assume is a small bottle of Axe body spray. I can only assume you are writing your next Big Screen Thriller: Old Man’s Desk.
You assume incorrectly re: Axe body spray and air freshener.
Dude. You have a can of Fancy Feast on your desk. What did you expect?
I dont think thats Fancy Feast; I think that is a can of Wellness, turkey flavor.
Put on some pants!
When did you get the tattoo on your calf? (I’m not buying “JPEG compression artifact” as an explanation. :-)
