Dead Cat Theory

    The week has been full of knowledge and weird sightings. Beautiful weather, and only one doctor appointment. A banner week has been had, and you know I like to share my wealth.
    My hubs was telling me a story, and as usual, I was just getting bits and pieces. So I asked the "Who" said that? He started at the beginning, UGH! I just need a few highlights, not a full repeat. After he told me the entire story again, I asked if he could verify it, because I trust nothing anymore.
He told me to just type in Bob Schieffer and Dead Cat. I needed a few more words, but I found it.
     The news person, Bob Schieffer, was talking about Trump, and why he won. How he won, and how he was not governing now.
      Let's just say, you go to a dinner party, and someone throws a dead cat on the table!!! What are you talking about the rest of the night! THE DEAD CAT!! The Trump style is to get up, and throw dead cats about on twitter all day, and none of us concentrate on whats going on in our government.
Worldly events are not addressed, wars could be happening, but we just see the fluff!! or should I say dead fluff!! Mr. Schieffer said, " He throws about five dead cats a day." He is a game show host, a Carney worker(these are my words) and it baffles my mind that people voted for him. But its not so much about those people, more that I appreciate a good quote!! One that I can use again and again.
     Second thought of the day to share, when your husband retire, things change. Most of it good, the other very different. We go on errands together, and the universe knows this is not right!. We were coming down the road from Home Depot the other day, when I screamed. Normally I would hope that he, the hubs, would stop the car. Retirement has kept him driving, he is not listening to my cries of , WE MAY NEED TO SEE WHATS WRONG, or THIS COULD BE A PHOTO OP!! STOP THE CAR!! I saw about thirty ( maybe 10) giant vultures, hovered over a deer. They were big and hunched over, so dedicated to eating that deer. ( and I saw Bambi's eyes) Never in 65 years of earthly living have I seen these creatures, so many, in the burbs!! Not even moving a feather as we drove by, they owned that street. I covered my eyes, and told Bill, I need some water to wash my eyes, I can never unsee this horror!! When he, so slowly, said, " What did you see?" I asked him to stop the car, anytime, that I cover my eyes and scream!! It is important, or could be. Joy or Horror, you have to take a picture. He then proceeded to tell me that he thinks he may have seen a vulture on cartoons. I said, " These were the size of small humans, at a feast!" It was an October freak fest and I had no photo, except the one in my brain that will not let go of that image. I have been so anxious at night, going to bed, thinking about these creatures. So far no horrible dreams, but I know they are lurking up in my noggin, damn birds!! I wonder why the people who lived in that house, did not call someone to pick up the deer body? and they could not have come out of their house with these giant gross birds in the yard. That is why that have critter catcher people!!!! Call someone!!!
  And last but not least( I love to start a sentence with little old and!!) Bill, my retired husband, has us signed up at Princeton doing this course in World History, and it is great BUT.....it is taking so long. So I asked him this week, maybe in the future we should read about the entire course before we sign up, because I just scrolled down the screen and noticed something. It said, You should expect to spend 6-8 hours a week on this lovely course!! Mother Mary, I needed a sign!! Of course I am learning so much, its all there in your brain, it just takes a professor from Princeton to dig it all back out!! and a husband who thinks nothing of 6-8 hours of study.
    Hope your October is full tilt, with a corn dog thrown in!! ( fair season!!)
    Mine is forever amazing.
