That jet set, watch the sunset kinda, yeah, yeah

Podrick started early this morning. Pippin just wanted snuggles, and the bull in the china shop just had to himbo bounce up onto the bed like he just got his second wind from doing a keg stand, and chased her off the bed.

Good morning everyone, it’s a sunny bright day, and Miss Pippin is lounging on her table far removed from where Podrick can get her. Last night, she was starting to get tired of his shit. She held him down once or twice and skippidypapped his face a few times until he stumbled away from her. he really just wants to play with her. He’s so interested in her but he shows this by being a typical boy – he jumps on her and tries to play fight with her. She’s tired of that. She just wants to clean him, and be his friend. With him, even when we just want to pet him, it’s a fight, and he wants to win.

Back to work this afternoon. It wasn’t too bad last night with one of the new kids. He’s quiet, so I get a long pretty good with him. Tonight, it’s GenAlpha. Well, they’re both GenAlpha, but tonight, it’s the talkative one. He’s tiring, but a good kid. He follows directions well, but he talks. He talks so goddamn much. It’s tiring. But we’ll get through it. We always do. If this kid was in school with me back in the day, he’d either be the most popular kid in the class, or he’d have been stuffed in a locker.

More coffee, please.

Working double time on the seduction line

The kitties were active last night/this morning. Good morning my internet friends. The heat from the last couple of days has cooled slightly, and it’s a slightly overcast morning. But the birds are singing, and there’s a slight breeze.

I slept ok last night I think. Like I said, both kitties were active last night. Pippin and the baby were up on the bed, both I suspect, just wanted snuggles. But thanks to Podrick being so you know, a kitten, neither of them got snuggles. Just a war zone.

Back to work this afternoon. It’s been a nice 2.5 days off. I feel pretty nice and relaxed. I’m sure I’ll be tense and all that fun stuff shortly after I get to work. Work does that. But I’ll survive, and I can happily say that 5 days til the weekend!

Hoping it’ll take me just a little farther down the line

Good sunny morning everyone. It’s still sunny, and bright. The wind however, has ramped up a little. Podrick let us sleep in this morning just a little bit. Pippin is happily installed on the back table, and she’s looking out over her queendom.

We didn’t do a whole lot of anything yesterday. I moved the cat tree out for the front door, and it’s turned into something like neutral ground. They can both hang out on it and look out the front door. They’ve both been very good. They chase each other around, and Pippin has gotten a lot of good smells of Podrick’s butt.

During the course of the morning we went to the local green house and picked up a couple of plants for the planter pots out in the back yard. We got some pretty flowering plants, and I found some Habanero plants. So in a month or so, we’ll have spicy peppers to add to our meals.

Since we slept in a little, I’ll be starting the laundry with a wide awake kitten running around. That’s ok, he needs to get used to all the new sounds. This afternoon, we’ll head over to Shady Acres for dinner. I think I’ll be helping my father fix the grandfather clock in the living room.

Hanging on to hope, I’m losing grip of time and space

Good morning. Nothing kitties, and the Beautiful One let me sleep in a little bit this morning. It’s much appreciated for sure. The sun is out and the birds are singing out there. I have the kitchen window open wide, and Pippin is enjoying the sun against her fur from her table at the back door.

Podrick is relaxing for a few minutes on my legs. He was a very good boy this morning, letting me sleep in. They both did really well while we were in SlightlyBiggerTown for a couple of hours yesterday. We came back after shopping, and the Flat was still standing.

We have absolutely no plans for today. It’s supposed to get pretty warm over the next couple of days. High of 76 today. Not too shabby, if you ask me.

Maybe I’ll win Balatro again. I’m kind of a high roller when I play.
