Looks pretty healthy, might just be a neighbor’s cat. I’d still want to bring the poor baby in out of the cold, though.
Yes, I know. This is how crazy cat ladies get started.

I know you were talking about the cat, Sari, but it was just so perfect.
Himalayan cats are also longer-haired Siamese. We had one 30 years ago. Poor thing died when he was a year old. Poor Wendell…
Anyway, I picked up the car a little bit ago - no more noisy brakes. I’ve got a chicken in the rotisserie, I washed and folded some sheets, and I emptied the dishwasher. Now I shall make some sides for supper… and feed Higgs. At least I will when I lift Taz off my arm!!
Blurf. More later.
I wish I was that good.
I was hit (& run over) by a truck. Though that’s better than yestidy when it was a full freight train.
It’s the middle of the afternoon here and the best I have to offer is BLURF!
I had an email this morning about a student who missed all of her French language lab classes last semester because she wasn’t enrolled on our virtual learning site and was too scared to come and ask about it. Too scared!! My work here is done…
Ummm, look at your user name, are you surprised? :smack:
Think of the fun you can have! ::insert eeevil smiley::
One year, Halloween was on a Friday. I went to the (good, theater-quality) costume shop & got fangs. Not the 19¢ kind that cover all of your teeth, these glued individually on to the respective canine teeth & looked real. I also got capsules of blood. I went to the main train station to pick up my then long-distance gf. The capsule was in my mouth until I saw her; then I bit down on it. When she got about 30-40’ away, I smiled a bit & the Dracula fangs appeared. Once she got closer, I smiled some more, so she could see that I had a mouthful of ‘blood’. She screamed. Everyone looked. I closed my mouth so nobody knew what she was screaming about.
Yeah, I’m a bastiod that way. :o
The animal was dipped in wax and buff polished…
Are they good to wax the car with?
Howdy from da cave! Pizza got ordered and ingested with a beerverage to wash it down. OYKW has plans to go relaxate in the tub in a little bit. His audit went well. GO HIM!
MOOOOOOM you’re goin’ to lift Taz off your arm and feed Higgs? :eek:
If the cat keeps hanging around and starts to get friendly I may have a cat. Although it could belong to somebody in the neighborhood. Then again if they are going to let the cat run outside they shouldn’t be surprised if it doesn’t come home one day.
We’ll see.
sari’s gonna have a kitteh!
I feel like I could go to sleep right now and sleep until noon tomorrow. Of course I can’t, but I feel like I could. I foresee teevee and snuggle time in the bedroom in the very near future however. OYKW is soakin’ in the tub as I post so he’ll be all nice and clean for snuggles.
I so wanna crawl unner the covers, but I’m 'xpecting a Fedex delivery and they don’t show until after 7pm sometimes
Chickie was yum, and there’s plenty left over for chickie salad, which should be built tomorrow.
I’ve got a date next week with my former boss and possibly some former coworkers. We’re meeting at a BBQ place near the base where I worked/they work. I haven’t seen any of them in over a year, so I’m looking forward to it.
Meanwhile, it’s freekin’ cold here! I still hate winter. On the other hand, there’s carrot cake for dessert tonight, so yay!
However, I think it’s time to recline and knit the night away. MWAH!
sari, Himalayans and several other breeds have Siamese as part of their bloodlines. Himalayans happen to be my favorite.
{{{spidey}}}
Worked, stopped at CVS, came home and fixed shiitake beef with green bean over basmati rice. Time to hit the studio.
Are they good to wax the car with?
Not as good as turtles.

We were partly owned by Patches the Time Share Cat. Every morning our neighbors several doors up would let her out. She would then stomp down the sidewalk and move into our house. Every evening we let her out and she reversed the process. It was a fun 8 or 9 years like that. She got sick and had to be a strictly indoor cat with her original people but we had visitation and grieved along with them when she died. She was a darn nice little feline.
Worked, watching hockey.
Kinda, actually. Imagine clergy who all look like 2/3rds of ZZ Top.
Is Pearl Necklace one of the hymns?
The Episcopal clergy would drink 'em under the table. Probably the Lutheran Bishop would do so as well.
God help 'em all if it’s an Irish Catholic Bishop.

Tex the Cat used to visit the on apartment I lived n, just to chill and eat the dog’s food(and a plate of my corn on one occasion).

No! Turtle shells can scratch the paint.
Apply Turtle Wax to car. Pick up cat & swirly around car as the fur is both soft & absorbent. This way you’re using a good buffer & not having the old lady mad at you for ruining the pillow cases. :smack:
The night’s excitement:
Look out the window & see a car, with running lights on in front of my driveway. Further, there’s a PD car up the street. I go outside & quickly determine the car in front of my driveway is an unmarked PD car (by the computer & radio inside, & antennas on the trunk). As I do this, a light is shined at me. “Hey, what’re you doing?” as the cop starts to walk towards me.
I respond with, “Just trying to figure out why this car is blocking my driveway, I didn’t realize it was yours from inside”
He then says to me, “Does ____ still live here?”
When I say, “Yes”
he exclaims, “SHIT!” but quickly apologizes for his language & starts to explain to the other officer that he has arrested ____ before.
Not only was I not offended, but I told him that was the exact word I thought when I realized where they were. :eek:
Spidey what in tarnation is going on?! Sounds like waaaay too much excitement. Hope all is well.
Tomorrow is Sunny-girl’s class play. It’s about, you can’t make this up, comic book characters who come to life. She plays one of the bad guys. She gets erased by the good guys. She won’t tell me how the effect works, 'cause she doesn’t want to ruin it.
We have made dozens of chocolate crinkle cookies for the after party.
And, for later in the week, we shall haz rain! 4 whole days! Take that drought. It shall still be a drought but I’ll take the rain anyways.
Happy Toesday!
Spider, Is No Name a neighbor or a roommate?
Is Pearl Necklace one of the hymns?
Since (the formerly) our clergy can get married and having known several ---- I would say more like “Legs”.

My MIL has a time-share dog. Lucy hangs out with MIL during the day while her other humans are at work. All parties think this arrangement works nicely.
What a night! I was having a dream about bears growling, then woke up to **FCD **snoring something awful!!! This was around 3 in the morning. I started coughing, and that kept up for another 40 minutes or so before I dozed again. At that point, I started dreaming that my youngest sister and her menagerie were living with us, except that instead of her greyhound, she had 2 black labs (along with her 2 black cockers.)
Higgs started barking about 4:45, but we ignored her till the alarm went off at 5:15. Heck of a way to start the day. But I just finished breakfasting (egg and provolone sammich) having already fed Higgs and cleaned up the dishes and the rotisserie from last night. It didn’t take long, but for some reason, the chore seems daunting at night. Anyway, it’s done. When light starts to break, I’ll get a couple of loads of laundry going. And we shall see what happens then.
Mildness promised today with temps approaching 50°, so huzzah!
Happy Wednesday!
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up, caffeinated, and purtified for irk, so no YAWN ‘Tis 42 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 53 for the day and rain this afternoon and evenin’. We shall see. OYKW and I are goin’ to grab a bizkit at MickeyD’s as soon as he’s purtified. Then, I shall gas up twuck at Sam’s and be on my merry way to the north forty this mornin’. On the plus side I should be in the orifice by noonish.
Spidey what the heck is goin’ on with you! First you get hit and run over by a truck and then the cops are after your neighbor. That’s the kind of stuff that makes dramatic music start playin’ in the background wherever you go.
Ok, OYKW is officially purtified, so off we go.
Happy Hump Day Y’all!
It’s cold over here today, just below freezing still but it’s also bright and shiny. So it looks very nice out there but I’m not going out in it to see. The forecast is for more cold weather but should we not expect that with it being winter and all?
Rang the doting parent last night, she is pleased to have had her plaster cast taken off but says her wrist and hand look horrible. She has had a call from the physio who is coming to see her in two weeks, presumably once her arm has had time to settle and get the circulation etc sorted out.
I’ll ring her again tonight and see how she’s getting on, she did say she might not need me to visit on Sunday so I might actually get an entire weekend to myself! I know it’s deeply selfish, but I am quite excited by the possibility of not having to get up early on Sunday and drive over to hers. Anyway, we will see how she gets on during the week and whether she needs me for anything specific or not.
Tonight is pub night, so we will be taking the camel with us for a drink…well, it is also camel day, no?
