TMD: On the way.
MG: Hump Day
Hump day, Trump’s away, Joined the fray. I cannot say, When shall we spay* the cat? Today? His paws are licked, his pelt well slicked. No—not Trump! I meant that lump Of fur curled up abed. They’ll take his sack But he’ll be back Climbing trees. He’ll make me sneeze. Why’s he in my head? No—not the cat! Let’s have no spat. From in a cage He cannot wage His fights to make us crazy. He’s just some stray. He came to play We let him in He felt a win He stayed and got so lazy. His nightly sermon, His chase of vermin: He’d make a real good pet Just don’t get him wet. His hair is… orange … and there’s no rhyme for that.
*Astute readers have pointed out that it is female cats that are spayed, not males. Staff have been made aware of this basic fact and sent for gender sensitivity training. The cat, while fixed, remains nervous and will be sent for counseling if symptoms persist. Trump, too.
—Eds.
Now for some mountain music to repair the spirit:
Here are a few German compound words for today, as found on the website of a Swiss newspaper's Ukraine coverage, and run through Google Translate:
fehlgeleiteten = misguided
Abwehrrakete = anti-missile
verantwortlich = responsible
Great poem Marque
I am not having a good day...long story but I still have not gotten my paycheck, my personal account is overdrawn and my mortgage is due today...sigh
But, I have our personal banker working on it.
I hope they fix it, because there is nothing I can do to fix it while I wait...sigh...I need it in the bank today to avoid all kinds of fees etc
However, still in a good mood about the midterms, and doing Christmas stuff...and my bosses smile and hello when he came in today really cheered me up.
Got a lot of work to do so can't stay...everyone have a great day!
