Nar has gotten up from his nap on the bed and realized that Pooka's in his heater-basking spot. he sniffed at Pooka, then flopped down next to the bed along the heater. there's plenty of room, they're just going to have to learn to share or take turns or fight about it or whatever. XD

here's a picture of Pooka enjoying his new warm nap spot. he's still in it, a little more tightly curled up. XD @cats@kitty.town awoo.space/media/rspt2d1zj1_hF

I pulled one of the cat beds that Pooka has been ignoring entirely out of the closet (where he spent a lot of time hiding when we first brought him home, but now he hardly ever goes in there) and put it next to the baseboard heater in the bedroom. he sniffed it, but didn't seem terribly interested.

that was ten minutes ago. now he's kneading and purring so loud I can hear him over my computer and the dishwasher. XD and making little donuts to find the perfect nap spot...

@Leucrotta *sends hopeful, warm, caring thoughthugs*

so... time to let the computer rest, and me as well, with any luck. goodnight awrrrooo, dream well and wake to functional computers! (or maybe that's just me)

WoW/computer performance griping 

yeah, it's definitely something wrong with how the computer is dealing with WoW; when the game is running everything is sluggish, but as soon as I exit everything speeds up again. *sigh* welp...

WoW/computer performance griping 

with my graphic setting on 3 out of 10, I should be getting more than 9 frames per second. if I turn the setting down to 1 I can get up to 29! and my computer is still making sad sounds. I don't know what's going on but it doesn't seem good. :( I've backed up my files to an external drive... that's about all I can do, and hope. and get used to using my laptop all the time because that seems to be what's gonna happen soon...

@mawr @Leucrotta @kara@occult.camp the difference between cats and dragons is one of scale, not kind. ;)

my computer is currently making noises somewhere between an angry wasp and a leafblower, so if I suddenly disappear... I'll have transferred to using my laptop, and will be very annoyed. >___<
