Morning 8/24/07

Spontaneously woke up at 7:30 this morning, decided to get up and meditate. Sun is pouring through east living room window. I lie down on cushions, a blanket over me, and soak up the warmth of the sun. I drape the blanket slightly over my face; this sun is hot shining through the window. Relaxing, making a conscious effort to relax. Sometimes it's difficult to sense if an area of the body is tense or relaxed. Breath feels controlled in the beginning, becoming more natural as time goes by. Slight muscle spasms in left leg, in cycles. Cat attacks left foot. I wonder if he notices movement of left foot. Trying to relax, still slight spasms, probably would not be apparent if I was up moving around, active. I wonder if these spasms would show up on a nerve conduction test. Will mention them to doctor next time I go. Cat attacks left arm, mostly with soft paws, but enough claw and tooth to hurt a little. I cry out and act like I'm hurt. He does it again. It seems like he's just playing, but he's getting too rough. Suspend meditation at 2 minutes left.
