All black cat with spectral eyes (they go green towards middle) that thinks I am her minion.
OMG.
I serve Basement Cat.

So I’m looking at the notnecessarilyACCUrateWeather thingy for the prognosis for the weekend since I will be away at the prison ministry retreat.

I note that they are predicting a high today for here of 55. Then they indicate that it presently is 56. I guess close counts in forecasting also (along with the usual horseshoes, hand grenades, and A-Bombs...)

Looking at the weather 50 miles south of me down in Jersey (near exit 52 on I287) they are saying things are to be about 8 degrees warmer than here and possible showers on Sunday.

Doesn’t look like there will be any surprises, so the creek won’t rise (actually it would be the Pequannock River that runs past the place.)

I have the feeling that you're missing out on forming a potentially large user group.

Nobody ever showed up. They either had the wrong date, wrong time, or wrong address.

[ArGee]

I love it when they show a 50% chance of rain and it’s a downpour out the window.

I’ll stick with my weather rock.

[NoCmpromiz]

Weather Rock..

Hey, I have one of those too. Last I looked (couplea days ago. In the rain. On the way to the mailreceptacle at the end of the drive.) it was wet.

It correctly informed me that meant it was raining.

[Monkey Face]

That’s rather comforting in a way...

Happy Nevada Statehood! Everyone should have a statehood ...

I painted my fingernails black.

[Monkey Face]

You will have to send photos of your witch’s outfit. It sounds absolutely stuning.

[NoCmpromiz]

Time to pack. Back Sunday.

Unless I pop in on my smertphomedevice.. depends on signal.

I tried dressing as a mummy one year.

I got terribly dizzy.

[Tax-chick]

I’ll make sure DP takes pictures when I go out with Frank and Kathleen.

[Tax-chick]

I think you did it wrong.

[NicknamedBob]

You don’t think I was wrapped too tight, do you?

[ThomasThomas]

Or warped to loose.

[Tax-chick]

Good point.

[NicknamedBob]

"Or warped too loose."

Spinning

A wreath is a loop, it's a circular thing,
But the way of our ways is more spiral than ring.
It circles around, that is true in its way,
But it doesn't come back to the point where it lay.

It just carries on forward and makes a new start,
Putting down fresh material to cover that part.
A spiral, a turning, a twisting around,
As days follow days like the manna we found.

For manna from Heaven is the time we receive,
Every day, every morning, then we get up and leave,
Our abode and our comfort, in trust that we'll find,
It will be there to hold us and help us unwind.

Every day as we dance, through our pirouette style,
We lay out our moments like a gossamer mile,
Of thin silken fibers of dreams and intent,
As we spin our life's work in the days that we've spent.

With our neighbors and friends as we dodge and we dance,
With the warp and the weft, and some colors perchance,
We are making a tapestry, each one in our way,
Contributes a part with his actions that day.

And Who is the artist? The Weaver sublime?
The patient Director Who gathers up time?
Why Who else would it be but the Master of days,
Making silk from the cobwebs we've strewn in His ways.

Oregon Zoo's 'super adorable' 6-week-old caracal kittens venture outside

[Tax-chick]

Yes, I think “super adorable” is accurate.
