...one very small and soft and sharp bundle of fluff and claws. Everyone, meet Nimue, [livejournal.com profile] goblin_dae's little kitten mistress (she is so whipped). God, she is the most adorable thing ever, and it's very lucky for her that she is because I wouldn't have tolerated her using my hands and feet as claw-and-teeth-sharpening material if she wasn't. I would have smuggled her home with me and let her trash my apartment and make me incapable of ever doing anything productive for the next 18 or so years, but Goblin's bag checks are very thorough.

Look at that face!







She may be a little terror inside, but she's pathetically frightened of the outside. This is her WHY ARE YOU SUBJECTING ME TO THIS HORROR, HUMAN? look.



She is also rather petrified of... grass.



Forgetting for a moment that when the harness is on she's supposed to act like we've broken her spine and crushed her hind legs. Truly the biggest drama queen you will ever meet.





I'm not quite sure what she was looking at here. Possibly our internet browsing history.



Being a kitten is the most exhausting job ever.



Oh yeah, you guys remember that post I made about a month ago where I rambled for a bit about the mphil and the experiment I needed to work in order to confirm the interaction between my two proteins? IT WORKED. I HAVE AWESOME DATA OR SO POST-DOC TELLS ME. You have no idea how excited I am about this - one postive result can get ripped apart in the viva, but two makes me so much more confident about things (and hey, could possibly mean a publication eventually). Oh hell, now I have to write it all up for the thesis. Next week's post: "Oh god, god, god, I don't understand anything HELP ME, WHAT DO ALL THESE NUMBERS MEAN?"

Oh, she's cuddly! Just er... when she's asleep. And I suppose she cuddles with her claws - I'm sure it's her way of showing affection. She loves me!

She sounds sweet in a cuddly, clawful sort of way. And yes, definitely a sign off affection. :)

I noticed my typo - talk = took - I touch type and sometimes my fingers just do their own thing...

I think it's just the manic playful kitten phase she's going through right now, and it is rather hilarious. If not, next time I pack the cat tranquilliser.

Oh psh, I did not even notice the typo. My reading skills are even worse than your typing ones, obviously. ;P

Kittens are such fun to watch!

And so glad you didn't notice the typo, because hopefully then, you didn't notice the typo in the comment about the typo. *facepalm*
