I got home from visitng my GF and just found one of my traps had caught another mouse.
Things are getting better all the time.
( 
better, better, better!)
Well done indeed.
As long as it wasn’t a two-week visit…
Odd itchy welts on my waist in the crook of my elbow on the back of the thigh. Can it be poison ivy lovingly transferred by my cats at night who crowd my bed, where’s the fluocinonide where are my cat gloves where the the frigging roundup.
It’s gonna be a sucky week.
Strangely, the number I was supposed to call regarding my compromised debit card associated with a major bank is no longer in service. And here I was all anxious to give them my card number and password so they could track down the evildoers! 
Seriously, glad to know that law enforcement is on the job, but kinda disappointed that I couldn’t execute my plan of calling them back and expressing great concern about my compromised debit card, and giving them a callback number which was the number of my local police department’s fraud investigation unit.
I took Seven to the vet today because she was drinking and peeing excessively for the last week. (It took me a few days to figure out which of the three cats was doing it.) I was hoping it wouldn’t be diabetes but it is. He plans to treat her with just insulin, which I’ve picked up. She also needs to start an antibiotic because she does have a UTI.
But none of this is going to get started today. Seven is a semi-feral who hates to be picked up. And right now she is very pissed at me and won’t let me get within a few feet of her. To make matters worse, Trei is hissing at her because she smells funny. Vet smell on top of the fact that she peed in the carrier. I can’t catch her to clean her up, much less try to give any medications. In hindsight, I should have let her out in the bathroom but she was howling when we got in the house and I wasn’t thinking straight.
I’m just going to let her calm down then. The vet was very happy that we caught this early so as much as I want to get on with it, I can wait until tomorrow when both of us will be less stressed. Hopefully.
Just try to catch up on baseball scores and go to MLB Network. What I get are a couple of jocks and a couple of women who yammer instead of simply showing clips. The women are, of course, dressed in The Official Sports Women Commentators Uniform of short skirts and heels and love to use annoying phrases- for example instead of saying “the bases are loaded” they say “the bags are juiced”. Honestly, I don’t think they even watch baseball much, they just read the teleprompter. The men are no less irritating, gushing over every player like schoolboys with a crush on their teacher. Enough. No need to have these knuckleheads on camera. Just show the freaking highlights and scores with simple narration.
That was the case for me as well.
Though I’ve had fatigue in the past, I was swimming along just fine until COVID hit. And I’ve never had brain fog that wasn’t medication induced, it is honestly pretty scary to suddenly feel completely lost and confused. For some reason technology makes it much worse, and if I can get up and do some housework I can usually push through it.
It’s better this week than it was last week, so I guess I really overdid it with the cleaning. I’m fortunate that brisk walks and occasional jogs don’t seem to make it worse. I just need to be careful around really intense exercise.
I was reading up on chronic fatigue syndrome which many believe is triggered by COVID and the level of disability described was well beyond what I’ve been experiencing.
I’m just going to have to learn to keep working with it I guess.
I was just out playing Pokemon Go and I think that I saw a dead body lying on the ground.
It was at the doorway entrance of a highway rest stop Burger King. His head was on a jacket, but he wasn’t moving. He didn’t move at all in the 5 min it took me to navigate around and back out of the parking lot. He was surrounded by 6-8 State Troopers. I have no idea if it was a robbery gone bad, road rage, or a drive-by. I just left and went home.
That’s freaky.
This is why you don’t pet Pikachu.
Someone in my neighborhood is playing their stereo. I can hear it very clearly despite all my windows being closed. Thank Og work provides me with a USB headset for calls.
True.
Good news: that person just looked dead; they were passed out due to ingestion of something bad for them or perhaps another medical issue. the state police were on hand to make sure he got to an ambulance safely. Its the best that could be hoped for I guess.
( But I swear… from 15 feet away, he looked dead )
Are you sure he wasn’t Keith Richards?
Keith was never that fat in his life.
PS- Death by Burger King? Man, that’s one hell of a nasty way to die…
Death by Whopping.
The meat inside is disgustingly old. The mayo crapola should have been thrown out two days ago. The tomato slices are moosh. The onion slices are old,dry, and tough… and the pickles have been dried out at room temperature too long. Also, that bun isn’t toasted; it’s stale.
It’s a bulimic’s dream… < heave > < heave >
We had to let our big dog go yesterday. It went as well as it could have, he had a good final day and we didn’t wait too long as we have done in the past. Plus, as I said to my husband, from the day we rescued him eight years ago, he lived his life in dog heaven. We will be okay sometime.
I found that the local humane society will accept his unused medications, so hopefully they will help someone else.

Regal looking guy. I’m sorry for your loss.
