Chatter Chatter, Pumpkin Splatter

Living in the country, I've seen my cats "get" LOTS of squirrels. It never ever occured to me to think I could (or would) save one of them, plus by the time I saw what had happened or was happening it was too late. I guess I believe in the strongest survive and all that, except for when something gets hold of my cats.

RIP squirrels that my cats have gotten. At the risk of being a sadist I REJOICE when one of my cats gets the chipmunks/ground squirrels that consistently tear up my flower beds. lol

I am rather fond of turtles and as a kid had a succession of what they used to call painted turtles. I'm pretty sure the tiny turtles weren't painted though. I've moved several turtles I've found in the road and in our yard as they tried to get across the road...to where, I have no idea.

That turtle war zone sounds sad.

 

A few thoughts...you sound a lot like my son. That is good but can also be scary. lol

This past Saturday when he was driving us to the hike he was going So. Fast. weaving in and out and around cars in his corvette I though I was going to have a quiet little nervous breakdown. I KNEW not to say anything though because it makes him mad, and he also doesn't want to hear me make any "noises".

By "noises" I mean saying "whoa" (not loud) when he has crept (flown) up to within touching distance of the car in front of us. The very best thing I can do for myself and him is to sit up straight and close my eyes when I ride with him. Any woman he goes out with needs to have the guts of Danica Patrick.

Finally, anybody trying to sell a mustang to a guy in his 20's should KNOW they are going to test it to its limits, or come dang close. His stupid ass should have said - nobody under the age of 40 can test-drive this car. lol

 

suppose I should shave before I get more miserable..

 

Got a small baggie of cocoa nibs from bulk barn.
Gonna try making chocolate.

 

he is your son...you should be messing with his psyche

next time bring an animal caller...a moose call...or a small babies rattle...wait till h is ahead of you and keep pretending you didn't hear anything when he asks

''what was that sound''

rattle rattle

''mom did you hear that?''

''no son...keep walking''

rattle rattle

a fake rubber snake would clinch it

 

I have chores....so be back later

 

My cheap ass weed/spice grinder is almost doing the job on the cocoa!
If I do it in spurts, maybe I won't burn the motor out.

 

i'm sittin here lala waitin forf my yaya

 

Yeah he should have known. Plus I actuly do have to red line it to know it works. How do I know the transmission is good, how do I know the engine doesn't make any odd noises. Its likely the first owner drove it hard. I am not going to do 100 mph but I am going to gun it a little. I really think he was trying to hide something about the car. Usually it's the other way around. They crank up the radio and use that to distract you from any funny noises the car makes.

Basically he assumed I was going to drive like a moron and was not really interested in my business before we even started. His wife had hung up on me before this too. I called and asked if the car was still there but said its allot over blue book is it flexible? I should have known that was not a good sign but I am stubborn. I thought you have to negotiate in person.

 

I have tickets for an evening with al pacino in Ottawa in 2 weeks...courtesy of my awesome sister

me and al

just like old times

 

Nice tank. So you are doing salt water? That looks like coral.

 

I wanna go road tripping this weekend but I still haven't really resolved our guinea pig issue yet.

 

bring them....be crowded this weekend but you have a travelling bedroom right?

 

hot as hell out there today, and I don't know if I can really take the pugs too far in this....Temps 80 degrees and over are a danger to their breathing....and freezing temps are, as well...

 

ok lets see how the satellite changes things. I was just getting used to dial up style..

 

Oh damn race to witch mountain is on..

 

I like the cat from outer space though..

 

go on the roof and yell into your dish and I will go on my roof and listen into my dish if I can hear you

neighbor horse
