Hey Everyone! 😊
Agent Thoth discusses more of the trials and tribulations associated with living with hominids. Incidentally, if you've missed Agent Thoth's earlier entries, you can find them here: Thoth's Journal

Agent Thoth's Personal Log
Day Thirteen-Hundred-Forty:
It occurs to me, the most obvious way to both be true to my DPCIL mission to seize all opportunities for the advancement of knowledge and simultaneously avoid the most oppressive of the local outside temperatures at this point in this planet’s revolution around the nearest star is to conduct my studies during the coolest part of the day, namely, at night. There are a wide variety of small arthropods that are most active during this portion of the day, so I will have no shortage of study material. And I have not spent much time on the outside of my domicile during this time before, so there will undoubtedly be new behaviors and previously unknown species to study.
The biggest obstacle to this plan is my hominid-servant. She is not inclined to allow me access to the area outside my domicile under the best of circumstances, and I cannot imagine that the decreased external illumination during the time period in question will do anything but increase her resistance to the idea. Also, she is not generally inclined to open the door to my domicile for any reason during this portion of the day, which severely limits my opportunities for escape. I will have to ruminate on this conundrum and see if any solutions present themselves.
Obstinate hominids! 😉 You may have noticed that Agent Thoth has a new look. I hope you like his new picture as much as I do, but I'd love to hear your thoughts, either way. Feel free to let me know what you think in the comments. 😉 Happy reading, everyone!
