We recently were adopted by cat #3. He's a former feral/dumped kitty. He had been neutered & ear tipped when he showed up, but not microchipped.
He is an absolute love bug and sleeps with us, but he has 2 rather annoying habits.
He LOVES to "hunt bed mice" in my hair, even in the wee hours.
He is also a tester of gravity. He will stand on the bed and, one at a time, knock things off my bedside table. I swear he does it jut to watch them fall because he makes no effort to chase or pounce anything he has knocked off.
Fuzzy little weirdo.

Yet another entry to this thread... I have been cleaning out a house where the tenants were just booted for lease violations. The fridge is nasty and has caked on food spilled all down the inside. I pulled the door shelves out and was going to toss them in the dishwasher. Not only would it not power up, there is rust and mold all over the inside...I think some of the mold is approaching sentience. 
.
Had the carpet cleaner over to see if they could salvage the carpet in the master bedroom. Four year old beige carpet that is literally BLACK. I currently can't smell anything because of a brutal head cold. Carpet cleaner guy asked if the tenants had pets. No pets. He pulled out his black light and showed me urine spots in every single room!!! I couldn't smell it, guess I'm kind of glad for the head cold.
This house is going to be a total reno.

Dear gold kitty,
I guess you have now adopted me. For a supposed feral (ear tipped) you have become quite the love bug. I love hearing you purr when you are on the pillow next to me. However, I would appreciate it if you didn't look for "bed mice" in my hair in the wee hours of the night.
P.S. Can you tell me what name you would like to be called? I'm trying to decide between Copper, Pumpkin, Simba or Leo.
(Short haired ginger tabby with swirls, no white.)
Your new Mom

Some parents just refuse to parent. The pastor at my cousin's wedding actually stopped the service to "request" that the grooms sister take her tantruming toddler out of the sanctuary. There was child care available, for free, and she had just chosen not to use it. She just sat there while the kid has a total screaming fit.

Weddings / Re: Bad behavior at the hotel

I'm not sure which is worse, the bachelor/bachelorette/wedding parties or the youth groups. It seems as if all inhibitions get left elsewhere with the wedding parties and it seems to be a "how drunk and stupid can we get". The youth groups it seems to be the chaperones who are in the get drunk and stupid camp and the teens turn into clones of the Tazmanian Devil.
When I was in high school, back when dinosaurs roamed the earth, I went to a weekend conference with other journalism students. The only upside was they didn't have soccer balls or something to kick around. My room mates kicked me out of the room because both of them were getting laid. I ended up spending the night in the hallway with two other students who had also been kicked out of their rooms for the same reason. We tried knocking on our advisors door & having the desk call her. No answer. From what I knew of her, she was probably in someones room which she shouldn't have been. Hotel wouldn't let us sit in the lobby and wouldn't do anything about finding our advisor. Back then I was a mouse and didn't have the backbone to raise #&$@ with my roommates. Now, I would.

Considering what I just cleaned out of the litterbox, I think so. Though I did accuse them of trying litterbox sculpture. There was a turd standing on end like some sort of monument...Cats...

One of my kitties just jumped up into my lap and I noticed something stuck to her butt. I grabbed the cat and asked my husband to grab some toilet paper & check it out. I didn't want her running around the house with a turd stuck to her fur. DH got the TP and grabbed the turd, and pulled out about a 2" long chunk of poo.
Both cats immediately started getting a bit of cat laxative in their gooshy food.

Bass ackwards was common in our house.
Someone has their tail over the dashboard. - Reference to horse & buggy days, if the horse got it's tail over the dash of the buggy, unhappiness was the result.
Couldn't stop a pig in a passage. - referring to someone who was very bowlegged
I may remember more later...

I was also in California in Elementary/Junior High in the 60's/70's. Newport Mesa school district in Orange County. Girls could not wear pants to school at all...unless it was raining. It also seemed that it had to be raining at the principals house because I knew several girls who were sent home to change to a skirt, even though *it was raining at the school*. We also were NEVER allowed to wear jeans. Shoes also had to have a heel strap...because we couldn't run in a slip on shoe...but we were not allowed to run on campus.
Lots of conflicting "rules". I was so glad to get out of that district. The state I moved to had a much more relaxed dress code.

DH and I just went up to our cabin in the hills for the first time in about a year. Yeah, life got in the way, and it wasn't Covid. The RV that we have up there was just fine. We got the RV to use while we rip out the old '70's mobile home and build something decent. The mobile home on the other hand....OMG!!!! I think packrats or some such got in and had a frat party/kegger!!! Not just the pee and poop all over the place, but things torn out of cupboards and off shelves and dragged across the floor. There was so much demolition that I just closed the door, turned around and walked away. We will have to go up sometime in the near future with our pickup truck, big garbage bags, tyvek suits, gloves, masks and liberal amounts of booze to deal with all of the crap. We have enough furniture that if I have to trash the mattresses, I can deal with it. Arrrrrghggghhhhh!
