Damn, he almost made it

[susandennis]

A silver alert is an amber alert but for old people. Every time I see one, I think another of my peops has made a break for FREEEEEEEDOM!!!!

But, sadly, few make it far. Like Jim here. He tried. But was foiled.




I hope he gets another chance before they take his keys.

Biggie got his first bird today before I even got my coffee. And, speaking of which, I screwed up my Subscribe and Save and just realized I don't have enough coffee to make it to the next one. This is a disaster!!

oh well.

I know I said I'd given up on convincing Biggie to eat wet food but I lied. His latest trick is that he won't touch it until I put a couple of Temptations treats (which normally, he will do anything for) on top. Then he eats all of the wet food and leaves the treats. Is there any better example of cat logic??

It's cloudy and not hot out this morning and not even a little smokey so I've no no excuse not to go out. So errands it is.

Oh goodie. One of the SusanDennis' has signed up for Sirus XM.

That should make for a fun inbox day.

I've heard the term "Silver Alert," but they don't use that here. They have "vulnerable adult" alerts instead. They're usually a little clearer than this alert about Mr. Seibert that the person in question suffers from dementia or Alzheimer's or just needs medication but didn't take it along for the joyride, and that's why we need to be on the lookout.

All too often, we learn that the alert has been canceled without a clear statement whether the subject of the alert was found safe. I do my best to dig up more details so we can update our readers, but due to privacy concerns, understandably, we don't always learn more.

Jim's big mistake was trying to make a getaway in a nearly 30-year-old Dodge Caravan. Those things will turn heads no matter who is driving them. Next time he needs to hot-wire a Mustang.

Aww… We still love Biggie, even if there isn’t too much upstairs.

I wish they would give the full story of Jim. Like “It turns out Jim just ran out to buy toilet paper, and ran into an old classmate along the way, and they got to chatting.”

Or “Jim was just so damn tired of the brand of coffee his wife has been buying that he ran all over town trying to find the kind he remembered liking, only to learn that it’s no longer made, but he did find a new little coffee shop on the the other side of town that he likes, and expects to hang out there more in the future.”

I have been getting shipping notices for someone in France who presumably has the name on my gmail (it's a type of poetry, but it's also a name used in France sometimes). And they signed up for some other sites. I'm pretty sure it's actually a human screw-up and not spam for the shipping notices, that looks like a legit company, but in any case after seeing if there's any way for me to notify them, I just get rid of them if there ain't. :/

Why are you trying to move Biggie from dry food to wet food? (Apologies is I missed your post about this.)

[susandennis]

You didn't miss anything :). The 'experts' (and my vet) all agree that cats do better on wet food. They stay better hydrated and it's just better for them than the dry food. Most cats I've had much prefer wet food but, of course, Biggie is not like any cat I've ever had!!

My cats take after Biggie - they only want dry food!
