Albachoir? Huh? Holy Mackerel, people! Squid you just quit pickin’ on fish all the time? Fishy this, fishy that. Cod you just quit being such treble makers? Just because something smelt doesn’t mean it’s the fishes fault. I gilly wish you’d either clam up or filet off. I’m tired of crabby people tearin’ into fish for the halibut. Can a fish cry for kelp? No. Haddock not been for people like me, fish would always be out on the back perch, floundering for a meaningful porpoise. Bream on, you say. You think I’m a poor sole. Don’t worry, I’m not one of those cutthroat lawyer sharks. I don’t wish to spawn another “roe vs. wade”, what would be the net gain in that? But still, it breaks my carp the way fish are always being flamed for everything. Maybe I’m a little jumpy, maybe I redd a little too much into all this, I went off the fly, I’m reeling with anger. I should be a shad bit more chummy. Saury, sports fans, I’m having a crappie day. Things have been eely roughy lately. I can’t sea very well any more and mahi herring is going bad. Yesterday I ran into a brick walleye, which knocked me on my bass. I saw starfish. It gave me a shiner and I’m in a cast. I’m prawn to do things like that. Anyway, I was just released. I’ll fry not to get so upset and keep my feelings at bay. I feel like such a shrimp.

I have 1 cat, a himalayan fluffball with a bad attitude.

Although designed as an indoor it does like to go outside, just have to have someone outside to watch as she has no front claws (not me, pound pet, selected by daughter who liked 'cuteness' factor)

Have multiple families of squirrels, one of who stands up against the screen door to look in on us occasionally.

About 7 deer wander through the yard 2x per day, about 6:30 am and again about 7pm.

Birds, some nasty crows.
Blue Jays, Cardinals, pair of Mourning Doves, at least 2 either Downy or hairy Woodpeckers, some robins, rarely we get some hummingbirds, hear an owl but have not seen it.

My daughter has a Black and Tan/Walker puppy that now weighs 30 pounds (at 3 months). Vet gave her some medicine for ear mites. You should see cottonsocks and I trying to apply that stuff.

1 Blue Heeler is about all I can handle. When I had a roomy there were also 2 cats. Myself and Jezebel kinda miss the cats, funny thing now, my dog's chew toys are named after the cats.

I also used to have a 55 gal tank filled with some Red Bellies,, There was once 12 of them(half dollar size) and in the end there was just one large one. That is one tough fish.

I love my dogs
Especially now. They are being very good. They haven't done anything since we put them where they are now, and they're so much easier to take care of.

Everytime I look at that corner of our back yard, I think how much more I like them now than when they were alive.

not really braggin....
i've been up off and on all night with my bird Vedder... he's had a chronic breathing problem since he was born and it's gotten real bad overnight. i'm afraid today will be the day i have to do something about it. he's 8 years old which is very old for the type of bird he is (a parakeet).

he is my first bird : (

the problem is... this breathing problem never phased him. it's not painful; he still plays, he still talks, he still cuddles, etc. it just crackles when he breathes. i've been to many vets when he was little and they all told me it was some kind of condition that parakeets get and that there wasn't really anything they could do... just kind of wait it out.

he still seems to be in best of spirits... so i'm stuck on what to do...

Taking a picture of a lab animal might not be smiled upon.
