Sunshine and I went on our walk.

Out comes a six month old female stray. Brought her home.

House broken in two hours.

Male.

Follows me around everywhere.

By fall, I will be the old man walking three cats around town.

For now, I am carrying him. Too much traffic during the day.

Update:

This stray kitten has been watching us for sometime.

All four of us just went around the block. The most enthusiastic one being the kitten.

*To all Seniors!*

_How sad to be old!_

I got out from the supermarket and looked for the key of my car, but it was not in my pockets. I went back inside and searched among tomatoes, potatoes, and on all the shelves, but found nothing.

Suddenly I realised that it could be left inside the car, and the car could be stolen. I ran rapidly to the car park, and THE CAR HAD DISAPPEARED!

I called the police and gave them my position, the description of the car, the license plate, etc., and I confessed that I left the key inside.

I waited for some minutes and then I made the most difficult call.... to my wife. My voice was trembling as I told her, "Darling, I left the key in the car... and it's stolen!"

There was a long silence and then she screamed, "I drove you and dropped you at the supermarket before going to the hairdresser! MORON!"

Not without embarrassment but happy, I said, "How nice! So you're coming to pick me up?"

She screamed again, "I can't, idiot! I am in the police station and I have to convince them that I didn't steal the car!"

*Don't laugh alone. Share!*

So one night a coworker and I were working late and jumped into his car in complete Zombie mode and half way down the highway he suddenly starts tapping his pockets and blurts out:

“F%^K! We have to go back I left my keys on my desk!!”

I replied “They’re in the ignition” then he looks down and says “yeah..that’s right…ah ok”
 
So I’m not a McDonalds fan at all but was quite surprised there was a long line of people ordering (sacré bleu!!!!) from one near my Paris hotel.

Anyways I remembered in Pulp Fiction they mentioned “Royal Cheese” instead of a quarter pounder and I went back later to see if it was true.

Sure enough there it was on the menu. So well I ordered one…definitely not a quarter pounder..and just like the US one..it isn’t the greatest burger by a long shot.


So back to Apple Pay. The “coin” operated Laundromat took ApplePay..although apparently Capital One wasn’t trusting it..and it refused to go through. Had to use my Revolut Card with Apple Pay instead.

I never saw any laundromat in the US take Apple Pay

Buddy is his name.

All four of us walked the perimeter of our territory again this evening.

Trying to find Buddy a good home.

On our walk caught a glimpse of another kitten watching us.

Dealing with a ticking time bomb. That's Trippy after he came home after a cat fight. Not a scratch on him. But the other male cat is probably dead.

It's the hormones.

There is always a possibility Buddy could be one of Trippy's.

Buddy is the first cat Trippy has allowed to get this close to home.

Yippee!

Just got a panic text from a friend.

Another male kitten in the middle of main street. Followed me home. Eating. About same age as Buddy.

Going for my new record tomorrow night.

Four cats following me, walking around the block.

Getting the word out to find these kittens a new home. This new one has a beautiful all gray coat.

So not only did I sell my Firebird after we had kids (don’t need dad wrapping himself around a tree) I also ditched buying alcohol. Still have decades old stuff in the basement gathering dust. I take a pop of the amaretto disaronno sometimes.

Plus since I’m in Europe and thus not driving I’m ordering Port with my meals. Yummy!
