Sam still scores his (mostly) weekly face time as 'The Bookshelf Cat', even when things are quiet here at stillpoint...which, when you think on it, is exactly how things should be at stillpoint.

This is Sam.
And this is Sam investigating his lovely new digs.
Mmmm. Nip!
But this old cardboard boxtop is where Sam still prefers to nap.
(Note the abandonned nip-scented basket, sitting empty on the left.)
What is it with cats and cardboard boxes, anyway?!
Sam will be napping aboard the Friday Ark and at Carnival of the Cats, hosted this week by Hot(M)BC. You'll also find him wide awake and helping out at his other gig.

Reasons why you might not hand in a completed assignment:
- your computer crashed and you forgot to save what you had written
- your brother fell off his bike and you had to take him to the walk-in
- your mom was late picking you up from soccer practice
Still in the not quite serendipity department, we're enduring a major construction project on the lot next to our office building. I say 'enduring' because it sometimes feels as if the noise and disruption and dust will never end. The dust, especially, is driving us all to distraction. It coats the windows, creeps in through the tiniest cracks and leaves our desktops feeling gritty. Our cars, parked between our office and the construction site, look like rolling sandboxes. Ugh. The serendipity? They're building a carwash.
