Who needs all their neck muscles anyway?

Not me! This morning as I lay in bed thinking, "Oh boy! I can't wait to sit around all morning and wait for the plumber to show up," I was suddenly assaulted.

Jezebel had snuggled up next to me. She is normally a very cuddly cat, but ever since we got back from Montana, she has attached her self to me, and anytime I sit for longer than 10 seconds, she is on my lap. I am not complaining, just describing her snuggle-ocity.

I don't know what woke her up. Perhaps it was the shower curtain closing or dog tail wagging against the wall. Not sure. But she woke up and tried, I emphasize "tried," to jump over my neck and investigate the noise. Somehow she tripped, and instead of jumping over me, her back leg landed square on my throat causing me to cough and wake me up from my waiting-for-plumber daydream. It isn't pleasant to have a 300 pound cat leg stab your neck first thing in the morning.
