Merlin is a crazy wild child this morning

[Siwsan]

I finally had to get out of bed to stop him from pouncing on my head! Normally when he gets like this I just pull the covers over him and he snuggles up to fall asleep. Not this morning. He tunneled out and resumed pouncing. I've never seen him quite this relentless.

I'm wondering if Merlin is reacting to the incoming weather. We've got a potentially nasty weather front moving in with a chance of icy precipitation followed by snow. (I have an appointment at 9:45 and THANKFULLY this should start until after I get home.)

I'm in the final push to get things ready for a family dinner tomorrow night and have a feeling that Merlin will be making things trickier than usual. Oh well. He's got to run low on energy, eventually.
