The World Turn'd Upside Down

today the trim carpenter busied himself with finishing up the windows: pulleys, ropes and sash weights and fitting the framing strips that guide the vertical movements of the sashes.  for my part, I spent the day in the office, unwittingly creating an opportunity for levity. 

in the early afternoon he inverted the cat cam in its little window, carefully propping it in place with a catnip mouse.  it didn't take long for some remote monitors to take notice: within minutes email messages started to come in from cam viewers.

oddly enough the cats were completely oblivious to their new orientation, hanging from the inverted porch as easily as one might walk across it in its normal mode -- a typical example of nonchalant feline grace. 

by the time I came home the additional exertion had taken its toll and they made it clear that supplemental rations would not be unwelcome.
