Sometimes you tell the day by the bottle that you drink

The tiny orange menace let me sleep again. He’s so good in the morning lately. I guess he was snuggled in between us. I was waking up after Crystal nudged me, and he started to purr. I’m sure now that his tummy is full, he’s bothering Pippin, even though I don’t hear anything. But, if I get up, I’ll disturb them if they are sitting quietly together.

It’s been warm the last couple of days. Like late July warm. June was a bust weather-wise, but Canada Day was wickedly nice and hot. Same with yesterday. I think though, today, it’s gonna be a little cooler out there. I just checked the weather app, and nope, it’s supposed to be a little warmer today. High of 86° for today, but mostly overcast.

Work wasn’t too bad last night. A couple of nice rushes, but we managed to get through them. I wonder what’s in store for the day today. Crystal got a new game for the Switch yesterday, and was playing it last night when I got home. It’s called NieR: Automata. I’ll probably try it Saturday when I’m off, as she told me I need at least an hour and a half for the first section.

But right now, I need some coffee to help shake these cobwebs out of my head. I had an allergy attack last night, because I forgot my allergy meds. I won’t be making that mistake today, that’s for sure.

I knew I’d miss her, so I had to keep her she’s buried right in my backyard

The cotton dome has to be rebuilt. There’s two main weaknesses: the feet, and the head. I’ll have to go back to the drawing board to make the upgrade count against a kitten. But when I woke up, Podrick was snuggled against my feet. I could feel a little body down there, and I did my best not to move.

Good morning everyone, I hope y’all had a good sleep last night. The heat from yesterday slowly disappeared in the night, and sleeping just under the cotton blanket was a little chilly this morning. Crystal had the right idea, sleeping in underwear and a top. If the heat is like this tonight, I might have to do the same.

But we’re up now, and watching the verdict come in for Puff Daddy. That little bitch is probably going to get off very easy. Not guilty on the RICO charges. Like Crystal says, these people don’t understand RICO charges if an Italian or Irish guy isn’t sitting in front of them.

Fuckers.

Back to work for the rest of the week. It was a really nice day off yesterday, but let’s end this week. Three days, and then I work Sunday. So it should be a nice, hopefully quick couple of days.

But first, coffee. Happy Wednesday y’all!

Bonne fete du Canada!*

*the featured image is what Grok assumes that Canadians celebrate like. Don’t be like Grok. Do your research! And of course, celebrate responsibly.

Good morning everyone. It’s a bright sunny, and from what I hear, gonna be very warm today. Finally, some warmth. I still bring my hoodie to work, and wear it at the end of the night.

Coffee has been brewed, and is currently being consumed. Podrick is trying to start something with Pippin, who just wants to enjoy the sun at the back door. He’s going back and forth from terrorizing us, to eating, to terrorizing Pippin. But he’s been a really good boy, letting me sleep in again this morning.

We don’t really have anything planned today, other than chicken burgers this afternoon. So the whole day is open to us to do whatever we want. Maybe the town will set off fireworks. I haven’t heard anything, but I’m sure someone has fireworks.

Instead of putting on NBC News, I put on the national coverage of Canada Day. They were just in Newfoundland, and it looks like they’re having so much fun.

What “friends” alum starred in films with Bruce Willis? (we answered so fast it was scary) Everyone stared in awe when we screamed Matthew Perry!

Good morning. Yep, this post is a little late. The kittens let US sleep in. Yes, even Crystal! I know, it’s cray cray. I don’t think Crystal has slept in until 8:30 in a long time. so I got up and fed the kittens. Podrick has eaten most of his food already.

I think they’re both on the back table, enjoying the sun. Pippin is starting to hold her ground a little more, and has allowed Podrick to get up there as long as he doesn’t bother her. So other than the tv being on, I don’t hear any scraps, growling, or scrambling to get away. It’s a nice morning.

Some of the chores got done yesterday. I planned the night before to do all of them before watching Night of Champions, but I didn’t. I’ll have to do the rest of the chores tomorrow. On the day of Canada’s birth, I’ll be scrubbing the toilet and cleaning the shower. That’s something for future Shawshank.

Good sunny morning, party people! Who’s ready for a great morning? Podrick is up doing Podrick things. He truly loves to chase his tail on a sleeping body. He was just a little wild this morning. Crystal’s vape came right at him, so that set off the little orange firecracker. So far, he’s helped Crystal clean out the litter box, tried to wrestle Pippin, tripped me up as I walked to the kitchen.

It’s gonna be a busy day this afternoon. We’ll be heading over to Shady Acres, I’ll be helping my dad install a hot water heater. There’s a good chance I’ll be working with electricity, and soldering. The last time I worked with electricity, I shut the main power down to the house, and I was still freaking out. So we’ll see.

But before we head over, I’ll be doing the weekly chores. Laundry, clean the shower, etc. I’ll also be turning on the Night of Champions. I got spoiled with a couple of results last night while at work, but I’ll watch it anyways. But I’ll get most of the chores started before watching it.

Right after I refilled my coffee, I looked over at the back door. Both Pippin and Podrick were sitting nicely at the back door on the table. Now growling, or anything just two kitties looking out over the backyard, vibing.
