Some collected random thoughts

  • Ina Garten made something vegan today. No really!
  • To the companion animal that keeps puking on my bed: please do that on the hardwood floors in the future. kthx
  • According to Paula Deen, fish “has no fat.” Um, okay.
  • So far, this election has been far more entertaining than I’d imagined. I’m not looking forward to Tuesday when it’ll probably narrow down to two.
  • They’ve made this whole blog customization crap way too easy. Why I remember when templates were so simple and bare that you had to fiddle with ’em forever to get them to look reasonable. Now it’s just grab, upload, activate. Select widgets. Done. I haven’t touched the code at all this evening. I’m getting soft.

Kitty and Stumpy

So Kitty, the juvenile possum, has apparently put me on his (or her) regular evening route. Every night as soon as it gets dark, he eats whatever the grey lover kitties leave. But there’s another possum that comes by. Tonight I let Kitty eat some, then chased him off. Not 10 minutes later Stumpy was chowing down. Stumpy? Yeah, that was a no brainer. He’s had some sort of accident and only has about an inch or so of tail left. He’s bigger and probably an adult. He’s also a bit more skittish and ran off before I could even consider a picture. So no scary, pointy critter pics. But hey, they’re North America’s only marsupials! Way to go, Kitty & Stumpy! Maybe I should just put a sign out on my fence “East Atlanta Petting Zoo” and start charging admission.
