Oh goodness...I think you got the snow I requisitioned. How on earth did it end up falling on your house? I'm certain I put the correct destination on my order form.

I'm watching those clouds carefully. Those massive white things that resemble pillows and threaten to smother and suffocate you when you're not looking. Their occasional grey patches hint of their dark and sinister intentions. Notice how they're always moving, looking for prey. One day it will happen. Death by clouds.

Sitting around being pissed off at the jerkwad developer. He knew perfectly well that my neighbor and I were feeding (and neutering) the feral cats in the area. However, he ordered the foreman here to trap and kill them.

Sometimes I really hate that man.

I'm sitting in a hotel room on the outskirts of nowhere (I had ad long meeting and decided to stay the night). There's no WLAN, no tv, no radio, no mini-bar. The Keeper and his wife look like zombies, the room numbers are written on scraps of paper and fixed on the doors with crepe adhesive. The radiator's off (minus 2 degrees outside, in here maybe cosy 14) and there are strange noises coming from the bathroom giving me the creeps. Probably roaches, rats or a serial killer sitting in the tube, I haven't checked yet.
I'm posting via iPhone, btw.

Checked the bathroom: no roaches, no rats, no raging killer. But about 14532 silverfishes partying. The strange noise is coming from somewhere next to my bathroom. So the serial killer seems to be busy with someone else tonight. Lucky me!!!

Ravenne, I feel your pain. I was waiting most of the day for the police to come and drag me away to jail. The rat-bastard developer (the one I am suing for $7 Million) tried to press charges against me for rescuing two adorable cats he was trying to have killed.

If anyone has any interest in the long story ... it is at http://rickymaveety.blogspot.com/

Me too. I really hate that this idiot is so intent on killing all the feral cats in the area. I have no idea why he hates them so much ... all they do is keep the snake population down. But then, this guy is such a snake himself, I guess he sympathizes with that group.

Right now, I am sitting at home, feeling like death on a cracker. Thanks to my lovely grandchildren for dragging these bugs along with them.

And trying to register with a writing forum, but screwing up badly due to my virus ridden brain not being at the proper level of functioning.

You did the right thing. I can hardly believe that there are people like this Developer living amongst us. Scares me way more than all those silverfishes around me.
