I do kind of care about your cat food in that I don't have my own cat food buying routine entirely decided and knowing what other people are doing gives me more to think about.

Cats ignoring but tolerating dogs is about as good as you can hope for. I mean, sometimes you get more, but hoping for more is a mug's game.

There is a reason "dogs and cats living together!" is an expression, after all....

That's good enough!

I thought so!

I care about your cat food!

I do too! It made me think I should try Sheba.

I am almost done with my cleaning! Which is good, because G&J are coming over after we go to breakfast tomorrow to see the house and let Charlie bark at them.

But I thought that reason was Bill Murray.

I care about your cat food as well!

Hahaha. I'm just glad not to be having to buy a gazillion different kinds for finicky cats with wildly differing dietary needs. Don't know if it is helping with Loki's diet plan, but my neighbor keeps insisting he's less large. And this seems like good not super-expensive, and bonus if it turns out the generic is similar enough, cause even cheaper!

One of my neighbors is doing something that involves a loudspeaker. I hope it doesn't last very long.

Also, I am pretty sure that me getting into the hammock is one of the most ungrateful things ever. I don't care, but I still suspect it's true

Darby and Gracie are on year three of pointed ignoring. It works for them.

Ungrateful for what? I'm always grateful that hammocks exist when I get into one.

I am up to the October issue of the Smithsonian Magazine in my catching-up-on-media quest and therefore just read about the vampire panics of 19th century New England. So interesting! Especially the link to tuberculosis.

I feel like the motif of surviving family staking (or beheading or burning the heart of, whatever local custom demanded) suspected vampiric dearly departed is nicely reflected by Gunn and his sister, and so forth.
