A coupla things

Hey guys...how's this for a license plate:




Here's something that Mr. Puffy showed me. I think it's a hint.

The Cat Loft™

An exclusive cat bed that functions as an extension of your bed. This allows you and your cat the companionship of sleeping together without giving up your personal sleeping space.

The Cat Loft™ was designed to fit any mattress
(up to 15" in height). Its sleek metal support easily slides under the
mattress and adjusts to the correct height. This allows The Cat Loft™ to be level with your sleeping surface. And you can easily change your bedding without having to remove it from your bed.

Wood Dimensions: 24 3/4 " x 10 ” x 3 3/8"
Metal Support Dimensions: 23 1/2 " x 9 3/4 ”
With The Cat Loft™ our furry friends have their very own space without infringing on their owner's comfort.




Driving down one of the main streets in town, I saw a guy on a corner, holding a sign "LITTLE CAESARS PIZZA: ONE LARGE PEPPERONI PIZZA $5." So I thought, wow, that's good deal. Good way to advertise a new business. Driving home, I saw on the opposite corner, a guy holding a sign: "DOMINOES PIZZA: ONE LARGE PEPPERONI PIZZA $5." Hmmm, nothing like a little friendly competition, is there? Guess what we had for dinner last night!

Another update so soon?

Yep, here it is, another update. Nothing much to say, but it's still an update. I'm watching Survivor Palau on OLN right now. Stephanie just merged with Koror and Coby got booted. Janu just threw up. Blech.

Miscellaneous items:

I think the two former drug addicts on TAR should use the $20,000 that they won to buy some drugs.

I know someone whose parents know Les Moonves' parents.

The fire in the Los Padres National Forest that you've been seeing on TV for the last two weeks is about 10 miles from here. It makes for some beautiful sunsets.

I read a great book: "Bad Girl Creek" by Jo-Ann Mapson. By googling it, I discovered that it's the first in a series. Here's a little description of it:

From the acclaimed author of The Wilder Sisters comes this bittersweet, deeply moving story of four displaced women who unite to run a flower farm, heal their hearts, and real- ize the depth and necessity of friendship.

Phoebe Thomas has lived life as a spectator, confined to a wheelchair, in awe of her beloved Aunt Sadie and overshadowed by her financial wizard brother, James. But when Sadie dies, leaving her a flower farm, the world opens up to Phoebe in ways she could never have imagined. Taking in three roommates to help get the farm running, she finds herself, for the first time in her life, part of a close circle of woman friends. Each displaced from her home, these four women form an invaluable bond as they help one another learn to change their lives.

Set against the gorgeous backdrop of California's central coast, Bad Girl Creek is the inspiring story of how friendship and purpose can transform even the most compromised of women, as well as situations. With her rich, melodic prose and charming wit, Jo-Ann Mapson enchantingly chronicles female strength, family complexities, life crises, the use of humor as a curative power, and love in all its many aspects. Bad Girl Creek is a breathless and pitch-perfect tragicomedy of female friendship in the new American West.

A couple of comics and we're out of here...

Update

I know I have to update. I really do. But I don't know what to say. And the longer I wait, the worse it gets.

I don't like these sudden deaths in the news. I don't like the Big Brother ending.

I like our weather. I like our drywall work and new paint job in a bathroom and on some of the walls in the house.

I don't like going to 4 funerals in 2 weeks. Three of them were people under the age of 60.

I don't like extended-family problems. I do like vacations.

I like the Dodger games and the concerts that we go to.

I didn't like Pirates of the Caribbean that we saw Saturday night. The costumes and make-up were creepy, well-done, but creepy.

I liked my lunch with my friend today. It was sort of like a vacation day.

I liked a shirt I saw on an old man. It said, "I want to retire and have the lifestyle that my wife and kids are enjoying."

I like when Cleo sleeps with me. I don't like when she bites me if I don't brush her.

I like my blog friends. What would I do without you?

Here's a few comics for you...






There you have it-my update!
