Science fiction, fantasy, mystery and what-not
You ever wish everything that you said and heard was being recorded, and that you could access those recordings to see what was said because the other person(s) involved have a completely different take on the situation?
Not me. No, sir. Nope.
Never….
Ever wake up and think, I can feel my mojo working today?
Great feeling, isn’t it?
Once again, he found himself trimming the strings that attached him to others.
snip, snip
he tried cutting off their strings of negativity energy
snip, snip
rigidity, judgement
snip, snip
anger, resentment, hostility
snip, snip
karma
But he’d learned by now that the strings were like hair,
always growing back, and eventually requiring a new trim.
You’re not going to believe it, Michael, she said. I went shopping on Black Friday, last night. I never go shopping on Black Friday. I did this year.
I just wanted a “Wonder Woman” DVD. I love “Wonder Woman.” I’ve seen it twice. When I like a movie, though, I like watching the same ones over and over again. I don’t know why. I have this huge DVD collection. I wanted “Wonder Woman.” Walmart had it on sale for five dollars. Five dollars. My girlfriend was going to Walmart. I didn’t want to go. Just get me the “Wonder Woman” DVD, I said. No, she said. Come on, she said. Come with me. I finally gave in. Okay. I didn’t want to go. I didn’t need anything. But I went.
I got in the store, and I got my DVD. Five dollars. But, OMG, there were so many nice things there. I didn’t need anything, but I saw these things, and the prices were so good.
Still, I didn’t need them. I didn’t want them. But everyone was so nice. They were so sweet and polite. So I stayed, and walked around the store.
And then, I came face to face with my dream camera. Digital SLR. I’d been thinking about this camera for three years. Three years. But it’s five hundred dollars.
Well. The one on display had two extra lenses, and an extra card. Four hundred fifty dollars.
I didn’t want to buy it, but my girlfriend was like, you should totally buy it, you never buy yourself anything, you deserve it, you’ve been wanting it for three years.
So I picked it up and got in line. I thought, I can think it over while I’m in line, go over my budget, and think about it all, so it wasn’t an impulse.
Yes, I bought it. I spent a lot more than five dollars.
He didn’t think his cat thought much of the holiday and his plans, because the animal went out, caught and killed a bird, and brought it to him.
Yes, his cat had given him the bird.
It had to be the holiday.
You ever have the good fortune to eat so much that you think, I am never going to eat again?
Yes, I’ve been lucky enough to do that many times in my life. Yesterday was one of those times.
You ever eat a pastry, like a doughnut or a bear claw, in the morning as you’re drinking your coffee (or tea), and think, this is not healthy, but it really tastes good?
Yeah. Once in a while.
If you’re celebrating Thanksgiving, I hope the day is joyful, the food and drink is plentiful, and you have a chance to relax and enjoy yourself.
If you’re not celebrating Thanksgiving, I hope the day is joyful, the food and drink is plentiful, and you have a chance to relax and enjoy yourself.
That’s my hope for everyone for everyday.
I associate this song with Thanksgiving, and as it’s the day before Thanksgiving in America, I thought I’d proffer this humorous, mellow gem from nineteen sixty-seven.
Peace out.
Do you ever get up in the night because you heard a noise, or need to pee, or want a glass of water, and step into a pile of cat puke, and think, (after some disgusted cursing), that’s not a good sign? Do you ever then walk barefoot outside to admire the sunrise and breath in the fresh air, and step into another vomit puddle, and think, that’s not a good omen for the day?
Anyone know a good hairball remedy for cats?
