Another weird conversation, and another cat story

For lo, I am bored, and have been doing nothing new in game, just rep grinding (although I now have a Frostwolf tabard because apparently you can only have 100 AV marks at any one time and I didn't want to waste them; I'm starting a tabard collection).

Anyway, while waiting in queue in Orgrimmar this morning, a troll pats Gutripper and then cheers me. So I salute in reply.

Then I get this whisper (paraphrased from memory): "sorry, i was just excited to see a blood elf female actually wearing a shirt and tabard"

How do you respond to that!? I just smiled at him and then my battleground came up and off I went. I haven't seen many shirtless blood elves running around, aside from an occasional bank alt.

Okay, so Klio does absolutely nothing but play and sleep — she will even come out of a dead sleep if she hears playing, and join in, even when she's not quite awake yet and runs all blinkily into things.

She also has a tendency to see non-toy items as toys the second they hit the ground (except purses — those she claims by laying on or inside them and play-attacking the hands of anyone who tries to take them back).

The other day, I was changing the toilet paper in the bathroom and dropped the empty cardboard tube on the ground by accident, and this black-and-white streak comes barreling into the bathroom and dives on the tube. Much rolling around and rabbit-kicking commenced, and then she picked it up and ran all over the apartment with it while I tried (and failed) to chase her.

I still can't find that toilet paper tube. And I've vacuumed and dusted since then.
