The birds are back? Around here they never leave. Whenever I see a robin foraging around in the snow in the middle of winter, I always tell my wife “Look! It’s the first robin of spring!” 😃

This is why I wish I didn’t like cats

Dogs think, you love me, you feed me, you take me for nice walks, **You’re God**

Cats think, you love me, you feel me up, i piss on your shit and you still do those things, **I’m God**
