Musing For The Day.

 

Seedy.

My hubby picked up this pumpkin bread which sounds good.....until I saw it was whole wheat and had a bunch of big yucky seeds and grains in it.....

yuck

but I still tried it anyway thinking maybe it'll just taste like raisin toast and it did have a slight cinnamin taste but the big seeds and grains were just TOO gross and I kept crunching and gagging on them and they were mixed right in so I couldn't even just take them out like you could if they were just on the top but hopefully the squirrels will like it.

Who the f*ck puts seeds  in bread anyway? What a horrible, awful thing to do. What kind of cruel bastard  even does  such a thing and with my Diverticulitis I can't even digest crap like that,anyway.

Shit.

I also couldn't care less when my products say "vegan" "80% recycled material" "Earth friendly" etc. I don't give a shit. I just want a good, reliable product that's worth the price and that I like and am satisfied with and I don't CARE about any of that Enviro crap!!

I tried to take a photo of the changing leaves on our Maple tree but it was too dark I guess as you can't really see it. I can't believe it's October already though and we have 4 birthdays this month as well; 2 of the boys, my hubby, and my BFF and I also got more weed as I was only down to one lonely joint left and yesterday I saw a commercial for the TV shows Chicago Med, Fire, PD  and it made me sad as my mother used to watch them and they're still here and she's not. I also heard a radio commercial for a non-alcoholic beer and they still said to drink responsibly  and you must be of legal drinking age (which I believe here is 19) and it made me wonder WTF is it doesn't even have any alcohol in it. Some people are also saying that saved Dubai flight was "staged" as it just all seems too unreal and coincidental to have worked out the way it did and astronauts made it to the International Space Station  in a record time of 8 HRS and it takes me 8 HRS just to fly to London, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, etc. and even longer  to Venice, Athens, etc.

I haven't left the house much since Buddy died though, not really wanting to go anywhere or do anything, plus also since people find me so annoying and unlikeable this way no one will have to be forced to deal with me and I also won't be made fun of or hurt,either.

These are also some fallen leaves in our driveway and next Thanksgiving weekend my hubby's away in Quebec at yet another chess tournament but it gives me a bit of a break,too, and yesterday the song L.A. Woman came on the radio and I said to him, "If you don't know who sings this one I'll lose all respect I have for you!" and he replied, "I didn't think you had  any respect for me" and I told him, "I don't have much  but if you don't know this I'll lose what little I have!"

He didn't know.

Can you believe it?

So I gave him 2 hints:

It came out in the 60s

Jim Morrison

He still didn't know it was The Doors.

I'm so ashamed and embarrassed but then right after an AC/DC song came on and at least he knew who THAT was(if he didn't I guess it's divorce time, ha,ha) so he "redeemed" himself and I gave him a "bonus" point.😂

This is also my cousin B and her hubby P who just celebrated their 50-th-something(I think maybe 55th?) anniversary. They got married right out of highschool when I was in Kindergarten and had 3 kids and now have something like...let's see... I think it's 9 grandchildren and one great-grandchild and I always thought they had the "perfect" marriage and the "perfect" family and yet it always "nags" at me something my mother told me once years ago about how even when their kids were little he would always make them and my cousin(everyone in the house) wake up early every day just because he wakes up early. He would never let anyone sleep in. Ever. That just seems to me to be oddly and eerily ....controlling  and makes me wonder if the "perfect" is really just a "facade" and when I told my mother I thought that wasn't right she thought nothing of it and just shrugged, "That's just the rules at their house." I also think my cousin has a look of hurt ,weariness,and sadness in her eyes in the photo here so it does  make me wonder and things are rarely what they seem....

Today's Pondering.

 

Mellow Fellow.

Here is Beja being all mellow. I really missed his "spark" the other day when he was sedated. It's nice to now have him back again all sassy and spunky. I hope I can find another way to cut his nails from now on though without having to sedate him as even though it was the only way that worked  it also broke my heart seeing him like that. I also really think my mother would have liked him with his sassy, spunky, funny, sparky, bold, fearless, endearing personality and I would like to think she's watching us from the other Side and smiling and hopefully Buddy is,too.  Today is also going to be mild, up to 23C when the seasonal average is around 16C and I've even got a suntan back on my face again from sitting in the sun so much lately but it's also supposed to rain today and tomorrow and yesterday I had abdomenal pain sooooo bad as well it's the kind of pain where you just curl up into a ball and moan and I woke up today with a baaaad headache.

Yesterday I borrowed one of my hubby's orange hoodies( he has tons to spare) for the Day of Truth & Reconciliation and I was also saddened to see so many assholes online actually denying  it, like the Holocaust deniers, saying it's a "hoax" and it "never happened" etc. as I guess as it's easier to deny something so horrible than to admit and face the truth but  there are even documented records from both the gov't and the Church of over 4K names of kids who have died in the system and some bodies have been found and the search for truth still continues.

Denying history doesn't change what actually happened.

Some asshole also snickered "What flavour does the  Indian suffering Tim Hortons  donuts taste like?" and I replied "Blood and tears."

I also liked the hoodie so much( it was just so comfy) I asked my hubby if he could get me one just like it and iron the decal of the photo above on it as he has the decal making machine for shirt printing. There was also a near terror attack on a Dubai flight headed to Tel Aviv that sounds like an action movie plot: the co-pilot stabbed the pilot (cabin crew don't have to pass thru the same security passengers do) and tried to crash the plane causing it to nose-drive and suddenly drop several thousand feet but the badly injured pilot was able to open the cockpit door where passengers were able to help and someone was a a pilot and could fly the plane and a crisis was averted and trying to hijack a plane full of Israelis is never a good idea due to their mandatory military conscription for all Israeli citizens(incl. the women!), so ALL of them are equipped with a particular set of skills and can defend themselves and have military training, and several even can also fly planes.

Some reports also say they weren't "just passengers" though but Mossad agents who were placed on various flights out of Dubai acting on a tip there was a threat, but regardless, a terrorist attack was stopped and everyone's lives were saved and the plane safely landed but holy shit though.

I dance to the beat of my own drum.

 

Thursday Thoughts.

It's like trying to dodge land mines.
