Introducing Jinx: Thursday Morning Edition

Jinx bolted across the hallway into the bathroom when I opened the bedroom door this morning while carrying food, water and my phone.

I appreciate Microsoft’s ability to automatically resize a desktop window to the worst possible dimensions when I try to just skooch it over a bit.

Sadie has no need for the Internet as she has learned how to pick up true crime podcasts with her ears.

Sometimes personal growth is knowing “stunner number one superstar” is way too many characters for a license plate but it’s a fun song so you shut the hell up.

One of my social media photo/caption posts for a shelter cat named Chip at Central Dakota Humane Society performed rather nicely — perhaps even qualifying for the V-word — and included getting picked up by The Dodo (51 million Facebook followers) this last Friday.

We’re not sure about any silver, but Yukon Cornelius is the gold.

Jinx was the Brad Pitt to Whisper’s Shania Twain tonight.

I let Whisper into the bedroom while holding Jinx and she inspected the room for a bit. I lowered Jinx down to Whisper level and after a mutual sniff, Whisper gave Jinx a hiss.

She left, but stuck around outside after I closed the door.

A nice little surprise was hiding under a stack of Ranger Rick magazines I won at auction — over 20 Sports Illustrated magazines from 1972/1973. Go sports!

I won a small basket of Ranger Rick magazines at yesterday’s North Star Auction. My grandparents gave me a year’s subscription to it as a gift back in the early-Clay days, so good memories have been unlocked.

Carson’s pretty down to earth, but sometimes he likes to find a high spot to get a better view of his kingdom.

These seven McCall’s magazines (five from 1939, one each from 1940 and 1945) were my biggest get from yesterday’s North Star Auction.

I picked up some automotive sales brochures at yesterday’s North Star Auction. I dig how the ‘84 Chevette got the same treatment as the ‘84 Camaro.

Cricket the Brave update: Even with her age and conditions, her will is strong and she’s still doing all the important Cricket stuff — eating, drinking, litterboxing, napping, looking for heat sources and affection — which is pretty darn good for an 18+ kitty. I love her dearly.

“Doctors won’t tell you this, but you don’t need medication for a tapeworm—all you need is the natural power of friction,” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said as he dropped to the floor, lifted his legs high, and dragged his ass along the White House carpet during a press conference.

The top hats and bow ties were a nice touch.

Seen at yesterday’s North Star Auction.
