I'm up
Too late to be late
Early early
Darker than midnight
.
I feed my insistent little monster
Meowing and swirling my ankles
I put her dish down
She purrs, eats
.
I glance out the window
no sign of dawn
.
And see
neighbor dog Duke
Leaping
Twirling
Airs above the ground
.
I stand transfixed
No explanation
For this canine ballet
.
And then
.
The streetlight hits some small object
And I see the old curmudgeon from next door
.
In a ballcap
Black jacket
Dark jeans
.
He lifts his arm
.
Whips a ball
Which Duke catches
Like a lucky outfielder
Triumphant
Incandescent
.
Silent fans go wild
.
I look at Bob
Cranky old Bob
Nodding and grinning
Transformed
.
You just never know
.
If you are a thinker, and you get old, it’s a struggle to remain tolerant of foolishness -- but the struggle is necessary if you do not wish to become a curmudgeon, which is also a kind of foolishness. -- Michael Lipsey
Hot take I know, but I feel like we should train ourselves to stop talking about the deaths of ~90 year old celebrities like it's some sort of inconceivable, brutalizing tragedy. I mean you can be sad if you want, but did your parents not explain aging and death to you? Are your great-great grandparents still alive? There's plenty of less inevitable stuff to be not-ok about, I promise. It's probably not that fun to live to 100+ anyway.

It’s funny the things I can get away with as a gm depends entirely on the playgroup. Like if I’m running something for my science knowers then I have to be ready to justify pretty much everything and “it’s magic” does not work. On the other hand I have some players whose minds seem dedicated to thwarting me in every way and all they need to do this is game knowledge and a willingness to cause pain.
I think in summary tttpgs are cool and fun.
(If any of the people reading this are in games I run you’re perfect and I would never complain about you)
favorite word?
I HAVE SO MANY!!!
The first one that comes to mind is curmudgeon.
I am also very fond of cahoots.
Wind is picking up, orange and yellow weather warnings across the Emerald Isle. Time to batten the hatches, man the lifeboats and put on your water wings! There's leaves flying everywhere and I'm sincerely hoping to see some silly person using a leaf blower picked up by the next gust and blown into the next County! ;-D
In other news ... Busterson should be coming home today. Hooray! My biggest 7.7kg kitty cat has been staying at the 'Ritz' for the past two nights due to problems with an enlarged heart and fluid build up. Fingers crossed that he's now stable and his new medication will do the trick and he has some more happy days ahead of him ... though he still won't appreciate being on a diet.
Had to hit the shiny metropolis yesterday. Not fun at the best of times ... even less fun on a Friday. Busy, busy, busy! Halloween decorations to the left of me and Christmas decorations to the right ... next thing you know I'll be seeing the Easter bunny clad in a Valentine costume bringing me my post.
Time for this Victor Meldrew to sign off and go get breakfast ... wish me luck ... I may just find Santa Claus eating my porridge in the kitchen! ...
