Earlier I got up to use the restroom, and after I was done washing my hands I opened the bathroom door only to be greeted by the sight of a giant ass scorpion and Mr. Meow pawing at it. Well, the scream I let out managed to wake up my mother, sister, and brother... Anyhow long story short, we managed to kill the scorpion, but not before it stung Mr. Meow's paw. Fortunately, the scorpion isn't from a deadly species, so Mr. Meow will be fine. 

Mr. Meow is one brave cat!  I hope you rewarded him for saving you from that "giant ass scorpion".

Ooops! I didn't even notice that.  

I keep sayin' you folks need to pay attention to the details. Otherwise you miss out on some of the "flavor" of the eye candy. Course I'm a devotee of eye candy.

And you have such a great eye for the candy posted here dugh.  I hope I will have the same after my other eye is operated on.  Which gives me a segue to announce that said operation is now scheduled.  Next Tuesday is the day.  It got delayed because Aetna took 9 days for pre-approval this time.  It only took 4 days for the same pre-approval for the right eye.  😄

Hmmmm… some old saying about “piss and wind” springs to mind

I'm realizing it. My hopes of finding one specie human compatible are slowly dying like a muscle stung by a platypus  even cats are dangerous in Australia cause they're reproducing too fast! 

Ummmm… penguins?

Maybe, however spiders and scorpions are a bit tenacious in getting into places they’re not wanted.  Oh and hornets & wasps.  Those things were invading my house last fall.  Took us forever to figure out how they kept getting in.  They were coming down the chimney and even with the flue closed.  Little bastards.

Nice try Drew! 🤔 The Thai language doesn't lend itself to music.  The singers have to sing the words, so the words are missing the  correct high, low, mid, rising and falling tones to make the words understandable when spoken.

Well the scorpion was found near the closet where our water heater is located. We'll be checking it more closely today.

Hornets and wasps? Now that is something my home hasn't dealt with... yet.

Indeed. Details are very important... herds are serious business.   Hey, bro, and hey Mum in SC.

Hi, Tink!   I'm doing better. I haven't talked about it much, but I'm suffering from 'foggy brain' after covid. Concentrating, typing, and remembering the simplest things has been hard. So, I am very happy I was able to write a story for the upcoming anthology. I'm not sure yet it is good enough. My foggy brain is trying to decide  . I also wrote two poems for the anthology, so I'm feeling encouraged.

That's great news about your writing!  You always have a way with words to pass on so many emotions, especially in your poems

That covid is a nasty beast. I see a lot of people talking about this foggy brain lasting symptom. Also bouts of tiredness. DI don't want to sound like a mom but maybe try not to put too much pressure on you and just enjoy what you can do day after day, even if it doesn't seem much to you it's something

Good and bad news:

Bad news: the +%#$&£% upstairs neighbors are still there... when I stopped by the apartment last week the dog was at the window and oh surprise the corridor leading to my front door was totally blocked by the stroller and an electric scooter... 

But good news: the other upstairs neighbor, the nice one is moving out so i managed to get my good friend from college to get first dibs on it and today the landlord confirmed she's reserved the apartment for my friend! It's gonna be awesome! We have so much plan to have evenings drinking beers and working on school projects (it'll be a good excuse to just work together and not have other people as we have the same way of working and of seeing things and it's was just wow to find someone it clicked so well with, like I'm rambling and she just translate my rambling into full notes!  ).

And so now we'll be 2 to kick the nasty neighbors' ass

I'm a very lucky guy. Now this belt buckle isn't nearly as shiny but it is strategically placed about 6 inches below his navel, and just above his ... details people details.
