Even though Carlos works from home., we usually get up at
7AM; I am back to working four days a week and need to be at work around 9:30
so 7AM is a good wake-up. Carlos is in charge of the alarm clock—though I have
no idea how that happened because he lets the alarm chirp and CHIRP and CHIRP
forever before he wakes up.
This past Monday the chirping is going on and ion and I’m awake
and it seems kinda dark outside, but the clock says 7:02; I figure it’s cloudy.
Carlos gets up, does his bathroom business, and then Tuxedo comes in to get me—I
put him on the bathroom counter because he likes to drink from the faucet … don’t
judge me—and then I head out to the kitchen.
Still, it’s dark out, and I check my phone … 6:12 in the mother%$#&ing
morning. 6AM? What am I, a farmer? I drag myself to the kitchen and ask Carlos
why he set the alarm so early.
“It’s seven.”
“Well, the microwave begs to differ. It says 6:15 … and the
coffee maker and the stove and the clock on the wall and the mantle clock and my
phone all agree.”
It was me and all the appliance against him, and he still thought
it was 7AM. And, crazy as it sounds, his clock said the alarm was set at 7AM.
Clearly, the cats are fucking with us. |
Ok, so important things first: do you have Eric Turner's phone number? I have some things to ask him. As in out to dinner.
ReplyDeleteAnd the impunity with which these Repugs move around their world is flabbergasting. On the other side, Mark Meadows is, after all, White Trash.
And talking about White: Prince William. The Caucasity!
Sidenote: the cast ARE fucking with you, guys. Sorry!
And Volodymyr is all the man Vlad wishes he were.
That's all.
XOXO
Maybe Carlos' clock sprung forward a couple of days early. You two always make me giggle.
ReplyDeleteBobulah, we do laundry almost the same way! My clean laundry, for the most part, stays in the baskets until it's time to wash again. The towels live there.
I would very much like (fantasy wise) to be the tomato in that silver fox sammich!
Love the tweet. Robot mice, ha!
None of the royal family (bar the queen) are very bright. I suspect Chaz would never have got into Cambridge without help. And clearly current events are not one of bald Willy's great accomplishments (his best claim to fame is having produced 3 children, which means that randy Andy's chance at the throne is VERY remote, thank god).
ReplyDeleteMark Meadows definitely has some 'splaining to do. I just learned he attended my alma mater. Which doesn't say much for the school. (He only got an AA, though.)
ReplyDeleteYour comment about the Florida kids growing up to be voters is exactly why conservatives are so desperate. They see their hold on cultural issues slipping in the long term.
I didn't hear that about the Russian Orthodox church. I'm sure they think we're all so decadent here in the decadent West.
I’d kill that alarm clock.
ReplyDeleteAs for today’s question: Yes. Can I hit it twice?
"What am I, a farmer?" Hahahahaha!
ReplyDeleteGirl you best get in touch with Miss Ginger Grant, remember her? She was friends with Eric. I personally find him to be a huge douche.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't surprise me Putin hides in a bunker. He's just like his fuck buddy trump. Big mouths and no action. They are your typical toxic masculine....but when push comes to shove never flex a muscle...they run like a pussy.
And fuck the Russian orthodox church.
Prince William made a mistake. I am sure he is mortified about his gaffe. Normally he comes across as level-headed, intelligent and genuinely compassionate. Relatively speaking - but with some notable exceptions - Europe has been a haven of peace since 1945 and I think that this is the point that Prince William was trying to convey. What happened in Northern Ireland, Bosnia, Hungary and Czechoslovakia was all pretty minor stuff compared with what is now unfolding in Ukraine.
ReplyDelete(Carlos) (Tuxedo)
ReplyDeleteDH got up for work at 4.15am
to leave at 5.45am. This was
because all the folks they
dealt with were on the east
coast.
Now he's retired he gets up
at 5.30am... roll eyes.
xoxo :-)
I'd have thought you'd have learned by now that cats will fuck with you.
ReplyDeleteMore and more we're finding out that Trump endorsements are only worth their weight in horse shit.
My money says Putin's been bunkerized since he began this shit show.
Meadows is failing.
And I had a laugh at the Russian Orthodoxy since they've evidently been doxed by Putin.
Those darn cats are putting their plan in motion. What is next after the alarm clock?
ReplyDeleteCan confirm about putting away clean laundry. Sometimes it is a war of attrition with me and Mrs. Shife on how long the pile of clothes will sit on the couch.
Pride Parades? What a bunch of assholes.
@Six
ReplyDeleteYou can reach Eric at my house.
Mark Meadows is a lying POS white trash.
I understand Willie recognized his faux pas but how does one forget WWI And WWII when both affected your country?
I love our cats, but do I trust them?????
Vlady is no Volo!
xoxo
@Deedles
Something on Carlos sprung!!!
I do have a habit of searching for my clean clothes in the laundry basket atop the dryer.
That silver fox … Oy!!
Howsabout Robot Ivanka?
@Helen
I guess William did his duty if it keeps Andrew from turning the palace into a brothel.
@Steve
Meadows won’t explain because, white privilege.
Some politicians are too ignorant about their base, especially the GOP which has spent the last couple of years watching their base die.
We may be decadent, but I don’t have the drag and jewels they have!
@Mitchell
Whatever the glitch was, and I think it was Consuelo, it hasn’t done it again!!
Please hit him twice; he appears very hit-able!
@Debra
Six AM??? I ain’t rotatin’ crops, I tell ya!
@Maddie
Oh I hate to think of eric as a douche. Maybe if I duct tape his mouth? No, that will deprive me of some fun times. Maybe if I just beg him not to speak?
If you see Vlady these days, he’s always got his little suit on at the big kids table, but then Zellenskyy is on the front lines,. So, yes, Vlady’s a little pussy boy.
I imagine there’s already a lot of fucking going on I that church!
@Yorkshire
I hate to see people in power make such gaffes. I mean if he does it with his education and status, how can someone with lesser education be expected to understand.
@TDM
I guess another 75 minutes of sleep is a perk of retirement?
xoxo
@Dave
Our cats aren’t fucking cats, they’re just devilish cats. I’m sure the dog would be just as tricky if he could reach the alarm clock!
Meadows is the worst kind of hypocritical fuckmonkey there is.
@Mr Shife
I am terrified to think what the cats will do next. I have been sleeping with one eye open.
I am in charge of laundry but I never agreed to put it away in a timely fashion.
I guess the motto is blame anyone who isn’t Putin for the attack on Ukraine.
I forgot to set my alarm clock one day 13 years ago, and discovered that I function just fine without it. I am probably late once a year, but that is no different, and I am not jolted awake in the morning. Unplug and rest.
ReplyDeleteSusan Collin's Black and White RCA Television... seems a lot of the GOP own that same model.
ReplyDeleteEric Turner... good for him. Not for me. But I like how he fills out a speedo.
Meadows = SMH. And NO ONE SAYS ANYTHING!
Yes. Organized religions are filled to the brim with cross-dressers and drag queens. Spot on.
I do laundry the same way you do... except mine frequently sits in a storage container on the dock of my dressing area. Covid-19.
Cox... that is refreshing.
DeSatanis is a fascist toy.
Iowa sucks so hard they make Ivanka and Melanoma look like amatuer whores.
Putin is a man with TPS (tiny penis syndrome.) Hope he gets his.
Come on Liz Cheney. Save this damn country.
The royals are terribly out of touch with reality. Quelle Suprise?
Mr. Doris Beasley and LeRoy both drink out of the faucet. All the time.
Thanks for the feed.
