On Attaining Enlightenment

saffronhareThis morning started nice and early, with doggies whining to go out at 6:30 a.m. and all the commotion that comes with it. The new oil that we put in their food for healthy skin and coats in the dry winter gives one of them the burps. I'm pretty sure it's not the Pictish Corgi, but can't tell otherwise.

agrnmn got home early enough to crawl into the flannel sheets for a a little while before I needed to get out of bed. (No, he didn't get to crawl into my flannel happy pants, graciously on loan from iron_clad and breathofgold.)
Hang on. Enlightenment is coming.
So, I'm just saying for the third time that I really need to get out of bed (which, since I'm a Cordian Druid, means I have to do it), when we hear a "conversation" at the top of the stairs. Princess !Kaboom, who is a morning person, is awake and trying to convince Princess Sticky that she should go back into the room because it's not time for her to get up yet. Princess Sticky, convinced that she's going to miss something interesting if her sister goes downstairs and leaves her behind, disagrees. This exchange involves a lot of grumpy sounds from Princess Sticky, who is NOT a morning person...AT ALL.
I turn on the hallway light and announce they can both come down, and lay out my yoga mat to do my morning stretching. It is not long before I have lots of "help" from Princess Sticky and the Dingo. When I'm sitting cross-legged, Princess Sticky is in my lap, pushing back on my torso. When I'm on all fours in Cat pose, she climbs up to "ride" me. It's this moment when the Dingo decides my nostrils should be licked. All these supportive efforrts become especially "fun" as I move into Cobra.
Mind you,zylch is sitting on the futon laughing and providing commentary. And agrnmn is on the computer, composing his Phil Kline manifesto. Princess !Kaboom comes by now and then to demonstrate some kung-fu or tell me a "secret." Finally, I just can't stop laughing...then, I fart.
Ah, enlightenment.
