All Saints preserve us.
So the kitten is now comfortable sleeping on the couch when we are home. Also the last two nights I've woken up with him between my legs. (no pussy jokes). Which is kind of odd since it seems he is Ryther's cat, as he snuggles up to him on the couch while he's on the computers at night. He also has taken to Himself and lets him pet and cuddle him. He's such a good kitten. I was expecting a holy terror, but he's very mellow. He (knock on wood) doesn't even scratch or bite. You know how some kittens grab you with their needles and hold you while they evicerate you with their hind paws? Nothing like that at all. And today I was reminded of a game I had totally forgotten about that cats love to play. "Whats under the door!?" I was in the bathroom and the 'paw' came under the door. It's been a long time since our cats played that game. Our two cats used to play it together, one on either side of the door, sticking a paw under trying to get the other paw that would come through. Too funny.
Spooky, the starving kitten, apparently decided he doesn't like turkey. He stopped eating the soft food I had for him. So today I got a few cans of other varieties. The one I gave opened today was a cubed food, and he gobbled that right down. Maybe the other stuff is too mushy? I don't know. I think the tuna he's been stealing from the other cat has spoiled him already.
Today Cuz and I wasted a morning trying to get a stone back up. It was worth a try, but while we got it up to a 45 degree angle, it was getting too precarious and we didn't have enough blocks to get it into place anyway. What we would really need would be a number of landscape timbers for real support. But we tried at least. Two tons is a bit more than I'm comfortable with. In the process, I did drag out the tripod we have in the tomb that has never been used by us (and after lifting it, I know why). The thing must weigh over 80 lbs. I do not have a chain fall to go with it, but I might look for one for lifting smaller stones. It could be useful, now that it's accessible.
I was going to take the dump truck over to have the freeze plug looked at but the mechanic was uber busy today. Something is leaking somewhere and it's getting worse lately. Not sure what he can do about it, but whatever would be good. Bubble gum?
My only comment on the Cain sexual harassment charge is that it's ironic that this happens to the only black man in the race. When I heard on the radio that one of the candidates had sexual harassment charges made against him, I knew without them even saying it was going to be Cain. And as for wether he is guilty or not, I can only give two recent examples of people who said they were innocent of such charges. The French guy in New York who the charges against were dropped, and Arnold the Governator who said he was falsely accused and turns out he had a baby on the side. Oh wait, and then there is Edwards too... Maybe I better stop there... I could end up spending the night writing about all the men who have been accused recently of infidelities and indiscretions.
