Later today I will fry 2 rashers of bacon, then set them to drain on paper towels as I put the *beautiful* sliced in half tomato under the broiler as I fry the egg over easy perfection.
Whole wheat toast & tea.
I am looking forward to this, BACON DAY!

Black coffee as I type

(20,655 posts)But don't post as much. The kitty thinks she owns my lap If I don't let her on my lap, she sits by my feet and stares at me, or jumps up to try a hostile takeover of the territory :/ I can use my phone, and I have been, but I like the bigger screen and keyboard of the laptop. Since she is dominating the space, I have puzzle books I can hold over her and do crosswords.

(40,121 posts)She would only tolerate guests for 10". That's it--you got 10" and at the end of that 10" she would jump on my chest and cover my face with her body. The guest could no longer see me to talk to me. Now that's body language!
I would say to the guest through the fur, "Chubby says she wants you to leave." The message was muffled, shall we say.
One time I had face cream on and Chubby did this. Later I looked in the mirror and I looked like I had a black beard from her brushing up against my face. I called my mom and said, "Mom! I have a black beard now!" Then I explained the story.
She didn't think it was funny.

(20,655 posts)Funny story We had a Manx kitty, who died at age 22 last May. She always came out and greeted anyone who stopped by. I think she was outgoing because she didn't have a tail to step on
She enjoyed being by me, but was happy in her own spot.

(40,121 posts)Remember that drawing by a kid of a cat? Someone posted it here. It said "Don't tuch the butt." I laugh everytime I think of it.
Twenty-two years is a long time! So lucky to have her that long.

(1,135 posts)The other half (pound...) of yesterday's tofu scrambler--cold this time--and a honkin' big glass of Green Goodness, a fruit smoothie. (Naked has a version that is nowhere near as good so I always opt for Bolthouse Farms.)
Afterward, I'll have my daily cuppa.
I wish everyday was Sunday. 🙂
