Weighty




After being the object of affection of cats weighing in

at over thirty pounds between them, and grateful for the

attention, I return to what was once, in my mind,

a large cat. He seems tiny, almost. Svelte, lithe

and precisely right for feline ideal form, the cat of

home. The weight and friendliness of Mau and Bear will

stay with me, friends, always. Moby is my home.

Who says video phones won't work? Being able to do video

chat with D eased much of our distress at being

apart. We are together now, and easier in ourselves for it.

"Who says video phones won't work?"

Me. Repeatedly.

Arranging to chat to a loved one over a camera is one thing. Having the video phone go early in the morning, as you step unshaven out of the shower, is quite another.

Pacian,

Agreed, not for all phone uses. But to have available when wanted... Defaults to only audio, video when both parties choose it... that sort of thing. Caller ID to assist before answering as well.

It's also rather static, most folks on the phone walk around a fair bit. With video, sitting still is preferable. Which is essentially the set-up we have. Text only unless both are in a good place, with appropriate internet.
