Thursday This n That

Sawyer has been playing with his favorite jingly-ball for about an hour now.  He bats that thing around the house like Pele going down the field for a goal.  Yes, he woke me up, but it's hard to be mad at him when he's being good and playing.  I'd rather have him doing that than scratching the bedroom walls and meowling at 3am, as he is wont to do.

My freebie thing this week isn't going great.  On the other hand, people have been reading DE in KU, so I can't be too depressed.

Getting old blows.  I mean, it's better than the alternative, but come on.  The strange thing is I still feel young in my head.  My body is a whole 'nother story.  

I can't believe Ozzy Osbourne died.  I was never a huge fan of his, but he was a fixture of our culture for so many years.  Now, there's a case of Heaven won't take him and Hell's afraid he'll take over, if ever there was one.  (A joke... I hear he was a nice person, and his antics on stage in the '80s were staged or rumors or PR.)

Also, Malcolm Jamal Warner (Theo from The Cosby Show) died this week.  That was a real shocker.  He was younger than me.  The poor man drown.  =o(

Hang on a sec... I need a smoke and some more coffee... Thanks, I needed that.  Now where was I?

Why are the katydids so freakin' loud this year?  Holy crap, it's like an alien invasion out there.  Or Day of the Triffids.  OMG, Howard Keel was in that movie?  I haven't seen it since I was a kid, but I never would've thought Keel was the MC.  By the way, the Joshua Tree National Park looks like a scene out of DotT.  Creepy.

Wow, that was some free range thinking right there, eh?

No matter what you read about what's going on in Gaza, do your research.  A certain section of the populace are putting forward blatant lies.  Don't get suckered.  Actually, that pretty much goes for everything.  Do your due diligence and don't look like a moron.  K?

Finn and Sawyer are rasslin' now.  Finn sounds like he's being killed, but he's the aggressor.  One of these days, he'll really be in trouble, but because of his prior drama, I won't react to his caterwauling.  Cat who cried wolf and all that, doncha know.

Okay, since I've bookended this post with cats, I should probably let you go.  Have a great day wherever you are.  :hugs:

  1. I love your early morning ramblings. I can't put more than a couple of sentences together before at least 2 cups of coffee.

    Cats. There are 2 "housed" cats that show up for breakfast among the "unhoused" (aka ferals). The bold ferals want pets or rub against my legs. The shy ferals stay back and wait until served. The cats that belong to neighbors? They hiss at me and yowl if I'm too slow.

    Hulk Hogan died too. He was younger. Ozzy was older. I admit that I laughed at the Bee's two "headlines" re: the Oz. The 1stwas him explaining to St. Peter that that whole Prince of Darkness/Satan thing was a joke. The one today announced that Great Britain is being overrun by bats since his passing. I'm not sure you could call him devout but in his later years, I think he leaned Christian and the massive cross he wore wasn't just for show.

    It's hot.

    I want a nap. There's no Thursday Threads this week so now I need to just write something. I still want a nap.

    Okay. Most of the day has passed. I need to try to do something productive besides my Wallyworld run today.

    Later, tater.
