Weird introvert & boring misfit believer. I also post cat pics. A friendly mess with a side of geek just narrating herself. Chaotic Good Hufflepuff.

Trying to remind myself of something very important when I get depressed, angry, upset, disgusted, ashamed, bewildered, and sick of this dumpster 🔥:

They want us to hate each other. We shouldn’t be giving them what they want.
First taste of winter weather coming tomorrow but the cold is already here. Forecasts can’t agree so it’s somewhere between 1-4”. Of course tomorrow it could change to 5+ or nothing.

The wind last night was awful but the cat shelters were fine.

Well Happy Thanksgiving I guess. I know it’s not happy for all, and the crud is making it much less enjoyable for me. Oh well, it’s a day off and i get tomorrow off too. The volunteers at my shelter are awesome so me and the other employees can enjoy the day.

Distracting myself from the big things. Staying home for Thanksgiving so help me decide on dinner:

1. A Quartermaine Dinner - pizza (GH fans get this)

2. A Snoopy Dinner - pretzels, popcorn, jelly beans, & toast

3. Hot turkey sandwiches & whatever munchies are around

(Ordering out is too much.)

Hey, #DemocraticParty - are you starting to understand how truly pissed we are?

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

To folks who look down on, mock, criticize, use, and abuse people with illnesses or disabilities:

You know one day you will be one of them? Sickness and accidents happen. We all age. You’re showing people how to treat you when it’s your turn. They see it now and will remember it then. Think on it.

Well the bike shed idea didn’t work. Not to be used for animals so I’m returning it. Got current feral cat shelters cleaned, patched, and packed with fresh straw.

One of my not-feral cats turned up sick so I brought him inside. Warmth and good food already have him better. He’s liking inside life.

I know, sporadic posting. Honestly it’s info overload. Also busy with cat stuff. Have to clean & prep the outdoor cat shelters for winter. Got something new this year. The portable shed to cover the shelters was great, but they’ve shredded it walking on top. Trying a portable bike shed. Dumb idea?

Is it weird that the highlight of my day was hearing Radio Gaga in the grocery store?

I could complain about the latest crap some of my conservative family posted on FB.

Or I could show the true sign of autumn. My feral cats, especially the two friendlies, love laying on the hood of my car after I pull up from work. Toasty!

Dear God,

Thank you for a nice cool morning so I could sit on my porch to enjoy my coffee with my (sorta) friendly community cats.

Thank you for the wisdom I’ve been praying for. I know not to take this Rapture stuff seriously anymore. Still kinda wish for it. Then this shitshow would end? Right?

I want to go to bed. My cat wants me to be her bed.

I’m thinking I should just permanently set my ring tone to Cult of Personality.

Nothing to say really. I could complain but comparatively it’s minor crap. Have enough for me and the cats. I’m grateful.

Though I admit, it would be nice to have a little more to share and to buy a better grade of coffee.

Sorry, I’ve been taking social media breaks every few days. I check in just enough to keep up but I need to give some time back to myself. I’ve become so numb and it’s just not healthy.

I also need to give more time back to the rest of my life.

Dear God,

I hope you don’t mind me petting my cats while I pray. They insisted right before ‘lead us not unto temptation’. I wasn’t giving in to temptation. I was following orders. I mean, you’re the one who made cats so bossy.

Anyway, they’re purring so I guess that’s reward enough. Thanks.

❤️

The long holiday weekend was good and not good. The car repair is done but the fireworks in my area were insane and annoying. Scared the crap out of my outside cats.

One of mine was not doing great. The vet visit had little good news. Lost him days later. Now another is sick.

God, a break please?
July 14, 2025 at 1:27 PM
I started a 5 day weekend today. The timing was right. Volunteers are covering my days off. I am so very grateful. Many years I rarely took days off because I really didn’t like taking advantage of volunteers. I know that’s not quite the way to see it but that’s what I felt.

Tomorrow is THAT anniversary for me but I have work so I moped today. Here’s a few thoughts to get it out of my system.

Why can’t I forget it and all the other days?

Why do I still listen to love songs?

I’m over it and not over it and hate that both are true.

Another mini staycay planned, another car problem. Same problem, third bad part. Maybe my car hates the word trip? Maybe my cats jinx it so I stay home? Whatever. At least it’s under warranty.

And hey, the messy updo looks okay, doesn’t it? Good enough for a car shop waiting area anyway.

The cats wouldn’t let me go to sleep last night so I’m being a bit petty and lounging in bed this morning. Then again, I should remember they can jump on me. Guess I’ll get up for breakfast.
June 29, 2025 at 12:54 PM
So, I did something silly, a cheap breakfast pizza. Literally just heated up a store brand breakfast bowl and put it on top of a Totinos cheese pizza. Just $3. It was actually quite tasty. Probably could the cheaper $1 cheese pizza but this is fine.

Passed thru my register at work today. That’s one way to pass the message along. 😆

Say it out loud you cowards!
You lose healthcare. They gain yachts. Keep spreading the word.

Them: Why do you care so much?

Me: (half joking) What do you expect from a GenX brought up by Mr Rogers, Sesame Street and Care Bears?

Them: You care too much! It’s not your business anyway.

Me: (dead serious) If I didn’t care this much I wouldn’t care about you.
