The problem with lovely mid-afternoon naps is when someone calls and wakes you up in the middle of them.
Tell me more good stuff about me.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Or, I guess it's not yet mid-afternoon. But it would have been, if I'd been allowed to nap.

Well, it is late afternoon here!
Time to go swim.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I just came very close to shuting Bubba in the refrigerator. (He jumped in while I was putting away groceries.)
Petri did that once. I didn't notice and he was quiet while I was putting away other stuff. By the time he started crying I wasn't in the kitchen anymore so it took me a couple of minutes to figure out where he was. It was terrifying and funny all at the same time.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I am utterly paranoid about accidentally shutting a cat in an appliance. I always double-check, even when it's impossible that a cat could get in there. (It's never impossible that a cat could get in there.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Yeah, I trapped Senor Sock in my fridge once. On the bright side, he never jumped in the fridge again.

... and this is the difference between dogs & cats. I cannot imagine any dog I've ever owned trying to jump into the fridge.
Argh, I don't know what to do with my folks. Dad tried to send away the caregiver this morning, dunno why. And Mom's mobility is so poor that I don't think we'll ever be able to get her out of the building again: she can't reliably move from the wheelchair to the car.

Consuela, does the facility they're in now offer nursing-home level of care?

You need to tell him (and them) that this is not okay. They both need help at this point.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But one that small can't be good eating, can it?
I would like to put up a shrine to Dwayne Johnson. I swear, few actors can make the objectively ludicrous as seductively acceptable as he does. And he's so fucking pretty! Who made the big guy pretty? Thanks, though! Good looking out.
