A little Dune-inspired, non-Monkey Santa related art


At some point I may have to break down and get an Instagram account.

Meh. I'm thinking of cancelling all my social media for the new year. Except Monkey Santa because he won't let me.
Send help.

Just want to say, this is one of the only "chill hangout threads" that actually lives up to its marketing.

I live with Monkey Santa. I can't even parse the meaning of "sense of security". And what's this I hear about comfort zones? Who are these wizards who have a whole ZONE of comfort?!

The look on the face of a fine Lady or Lord when they take their first bite is worth the effort putting up with these disgustingly well-meaning air-heads!

10 Demerits, in that case. I hope your New Year's Resolution is to try harder, sunbeam.

Try harder? Surely there’s a better way…

Really, people need to remember that there is absolutely no rule about not using New Year's resolutions for evil.

I actually wrote that on a sticky note and fastened to the corner of my monitor at a place where I worked years ago. People give ya strange looks when you do that sort of thing.

Why do smoke detector batteries only fail when I'm asleep in the pitch dark night?

*sweet oblivion*

FWEEP!

*panic*

HUH?

*silent vigilance*

...

*drifts back into the arms of Morpheus*

FWEEP!

GAH!

*wanders darkness; stumbles over dog; hopes it's a dog and not a raccoon that has somehow gotten into the house*

...

...

fweeeeeep...

*shuffles over towards distant sound*

fweeeeeep...

*shuffles other direction*

FWEEP!

AHA!

*removes battery*

Now to go back to bed.

*brain remains on high alert for fweeping night leopards or whatever s#+& evolution trained it to panic about*

Sigh.

I have often thought about this experience. I'm awake during the day and even a few hours after dark for many more hours than I am asleep, so why do the batteries run low in the dead of night far more often?

What's more, my detectors have batteries and are wired into the house's electrical system AND have some sort of internal battery that stores a small charge, so I used to have to wake up, find which detector is beeping at me, get a ladder, climb up the to remove the battery, take the detector off it's bracket, unplug the wires, and then roll it in a towel and stuff it in a drawer so that my family can go back to sleep while it beeps the last of it's charge away.

I eventually learned that it's easier to just find a battery and replace it right away than go through most of those steps above.

'Night Leopards' were probably my favourite hair metal band of the late '80s.

Drooling is accepted.

I appreciate that. Since the Quibble Estate has apparently decided 2022 is the year of no sleep.

2:00 AM

Hrrk… hrrrrk… HORK!

Click click click of doggie feet.

That's why I don't have animals. Or kids.

I actually love animals (well, some many of them). I just don't have energy, focus, patience, and resources to take care of any of my own.

Admittedly, on my small disability income, sometimes I do need a little help from a friend or two to get Buster's monthly medicine for him, but it's rare that I do.

Before I moved back out on my own, I was living with my son and his mom. Between us there were four dogs and two of them came with me when I got my own place again. Rosie has since passed away and Buster's health is slipping some, but someone rescued a kitten from the middle of a busy highway (she literally stopped traffic to catch the cat). She wanted to keep her but her dogs would likely have hurt her so I said she could live here and we'd share her care and feeding. It's worked out pretty well, though Buster hates Poppet. He's not hurt her, but her constant kitten-ness drives him up the wall. She wants nothing on Earth more than to be friends with that old dog but he ain't havin' it.

I guess I said all this to say I'm glad I have my pets. I'm not a person who feel lonely or alone (I am much happier and healthier living by myself) but I'm glad the beasties are here. We're good for each other.
