In a dream last night I touched an electrical device of some kind and received a mild shock that felt so real it woke me up. I believe that I jumped off of the mattress just as reflexively as that kitty leapt off of the floor.
My Loki also has a subscription to Waterbowl Weirdo Weekly. Not sure if he is playing patty cake or trying to swim, but he likes to get wave action going so half of it ends up on the floor and the rest of it ends up on me when he comes and bread loafs on top of me soaking wet.
"It was not I that they yelled at. It was YOU, the evil demon reflected in the water bowl! YOU did the bad thing! You shall be punished! Take that! And that! Now you pay for getting me in trouble!"
The exuberance reminds me of my 3 year old grandson who literally jumps for joy. A special train video or a waffle for breakfast, or many other things. It is delightful to watch.
I went to the Dr the other day for my RLS. She said to try drinking a little pickle juice before bed. I tried it for 2 nights and it worked like a charm, my twitches went away completely. I also drink a little tonic water as well (no gin, I'm 2 months sober and want to stay that way).
OMG, KITTEH is *beyond* adorable. Been a long time since mine were that young and skittish (19 and 14) so this brought back many happy memories...thank you!
I am not a young, passed that age ** years ago, but the youngs are not wrong. Shit is WAY to expensive. All of it. All the shit is too expensive, especially on a small fixed income.
Also-pantry? LoL @pantries. Who has room for that, aside from kardashians and Editrix?
Uh, if this has been already been discussed but Scott Perry (R-traitorstan) and Ronnie (White House drug dealer) Jackson R-bumfuck Texas, have been appointed to the house intelligence committee. Holy shit. If the FBI has previously confiscated your phone with a warrant, should you really be appointed to the intelligence committee? Orwellian.
A Federal Judge just ordered Steve Bannon to Prison.
NBC - "A federal judge on Thursday ordered former Trump adviser Steve Bannon to report to prison on July 1 to begin a four-month prison sentence for defying subpoenas from the Jan. 6 Committee after a higher court rejected his appeal." (15 mins ago)
July 1 huh? Let's see, that's a four-month sentence, so that means he'll be in the slammer for July, August, September, and October, getting out just in time to vote (if he's allowed in his jurisdiction) after missing the entire campaign.
Yes, the stench would be wicked. It could be a defensive mechanism for Bannon too. Someone should throw him some soap (and I'm not going anywhere near the Banhammer here, just to get clean).
Prices are good but not bargain basement. Lots of the bougie brands I'd buy anyhow (ugh, KIND i luv u). But also a random selection that seems like I really need to time it to find the exact thing I usually buy.
It's weird, because I thought Hunter Biden was on trial for a gun charge, but all the testimony has been about him being a drug addict. Talk about losing the plot.
The red step stool in the editrix' 2022 pantry is absolutely awesome! Was the photo pre or post "move to Detroit"? I sure hope it did not end up in a Montana moving sale.
If it landed in the donation area of a Montana thrift store all i can say is that someone in the Montana thrift store community is gonna be a happy thrift store surfer!
At Yankee Stadium, cash-payers have to go to a reverse ATM to get their cash turned into a debit card with a $3.50 fee, because Yankee Stadium no longer takes cash.
Dance, dance, jump around like a cat. It’s some quickstep dub hed gif sourcing info: https://open.substack.com/pub/martiniambassador/p/battle-at-the-ol-waterin-bowl

Adorable little goofball
In my mind, I see the kitten dancing to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFvXt2PFnB8
Hysterical!
Although not quite as exuberant as today's Tabs kitteh, Li'l Feller is also an official Water Bowl Weirdo.

I knew a orange tabby quite a while back who, when he was yelled at, would go and smack his water dish. Very weirdo.
That sounds a lot like the type of shit my orange tabby does. Hm. 😅
"It was not I that they yelled at. It was YOU, the evil demon reflected in the water bowl! YOU did the bad thing! You shall be punished! Take that! And that! Now you pay for getting me in trouble!"
The best part is he'd end up getting wet paws, which just upset him more.
I don't yell much. They just look at me like something that belongs in a butterfly net.
That cat is HAF!

Would it that I had that kind of energy in my advanced age.
Indeed. Every time I see him do it I wonder when the last time I got so excited I jumped up and down. 34 felony convictions didn't even do it.
I can't stop my leg! - Robert Klein
My leg stopped!!!
There it goes again!--- Also Robert Klein
I have ADD/ADHD. I can't stop my legs either.
RLS here! Me neither!

I've tried that. I have to take parkinson's medication in a high dose.
I'd go completely even more batty that I am now if I had that.
Thank you. I needed that.

Ooh, very striking.
Yeah, a pretty kitty.
OMG, KITTEH is *beyond* adorable. Been a long time since mine were that young and skittish (19 and 14) so this brought back many happy memories...thank you!
Hot foot!!!
"Oh no, I've got HAPPY FEET!"
Both Friday and Shadow would do that dance, dance, jump around sometimes. So much fun to watch them.
my 1903/1907 pantry was turned into a powder room in the 70's.
now it's both!

I'd love to turn some starving homeless people loose in Khloe's pantry.
It's bigger than my entire kitchen, and bigger than some apartments I've rented.
welp, not a great start on the trip north.. 250 miles into the trip and we're sitting at a tire shop in Jacksonville.
there are better lunch spots, just sayin.
free stale popcorn is not worth the nasty new tire smells.
Khloe K’s pantry… JIF? Are you KIDDING me, Khloe?
Am so jealous of your pantry Ms Editrix. I have no pantry in my house and nowhere to put one

I wonder how many shirts he'll be allowed to wear?
July 1 huh? Let's see, that's a four-month sentence, so that means he'll be in the slammer for July, August, September, and October, getting out just in time to vote (if he's allowed in his jurisdiction) after missing the entire campaign.
Let's see if he ever comes out alive first. They could Whitey Bulger him. Just sayin...
I can see that happening just to get rid of the smell.
Yes, the stench would be wicked. It could be a defensive mechanism for Bannon too. Someone should throw him some soap (and I'm not going anywhere near the Banhammer here, just to get clean).
I gave in and tried Martie.

Oh, well, I'm flexible. Nom nom snacks!

Lucky ducky thrift score FTW!
that is my Detroit mansion pantry! We have two of those stools even, so the girls don't fight.
Just let me know if and when you plan to put one in a garage sale or whatever.
I pay cash!
I have one upholstered in mid-century red vinyl. With one eye missing and wonky knees, I'd be askeered to use it as a step.

If Khloe Kardashian actually cooks for herself, you can paint my ass orange and call me a Dutchman.
that's why all her cookbooks are in a shoebox next to another shoebox named 'collagen' and 'ziplock'.
Speaking of orange asses, I contend that Donald Trump has never been in the kitchen of any home he's ever lived in.
Seriously. I'd bet if you put the whole damn family together they'd struggle to boil an egg.
The story blurb I saw a minute ago: Kim K saying she can't cope with being a single mom of four. Poor thing...
Four what? Nannies?
If she had four nannies, she wouldn't have to "hide in the bathroom from her children"
That pantry looks more like the shelves in a pharmacy.
"Griselda, there are FINGERPRINTS on one of the orechiette jar lids. FINGERPRINTS! Please try to be more mindful in your cleaning."
I bet Khloe Kardashian has a dedicated staff of five who do nothing but straighten the items on those pantry shelves day in and day out.
