Friday night will be pretty much like...

...Thursday, around here.  First, music (The Pines of Rome).

On the table:

Still at work on the Frost Bearer.
Watching me

is Tortie, the Red-eared Slider.  He (?) studies me for about 10 min. before settling into a nap.
Also keeping me company is

Charlsie. The click & flash woke him up, but not enough to move. He will be 12 yrs. old this December.  He prefers to retire for the evening between 9.30 & 10.00 p.m.
Exciting, yes?  ;)
