Where did my time go, my sweet darling?

I am profoundly not sleeping and predictably frustrated by it, but Hestia matches the Eames rocking chair in which she has taken up residence.



It is one of two Eames chairs inherited from my grandparents; we used to visit its sibling at the MFA. Its occupant is one of a kind.

profoundly not sleeping

Struggling with that one too, or at least with sleeping at any sort of predictable time. Sooo tiring....

Hestia is a good kitty!

She's been curling up in the covers with me at night, which I find immensely comforting

GOOD CAT.

Oh, she is indeed unparalleled. Her expression! I am sure she would give you sleep knowledge if she could.

Such a soulful gaze. She is a good Eames sitter.

I especially like that the bright yellow of Hestia's eyes matches the bright yellow of the chair. I now can picture a Kodacolor image from back in the day, an Eames ad in a glossy magazine, with her in this chair.

I'm sorry to hear you're not sleeping. Mentally, I'm making a sacrifice to Hypnos on your behalf.

Just I was thinking! The chair really brings out her BIG KITTY EYES.

I discovered the Eameses via Powers of Ten but/and I am fascinated by their design work.

Elegance!

Soon, you can luxuriate in the pro-somnolence of a lightless pit with many blankets and a turtle tank. (There is no turtle; it is his summer tank.) The pit used to come with a Satanic potato disguised as a cat, but now the Satanic potato can take or leave the pit.

That's a gorgeous picture of an adorable cat in an iconic chair. Hestia looks a lot like our Jinnai, with those huge, bright yellow eyes, the upright ears, and the all-black pelt (Jinnai does have a splash of white at the very tip of his tail).

I hope sleep smiles on you soon. Every night, I send thanks to my doctor in Florida for working with me to construct a medication regime that almost always works to conquer my insomnia without kicking in my sleep paralysis.

She's so beautiful, and matches perfectly!

I hope you sleep soon.
