Hi Honey! How are you today? How's business? Are you staying safe and eating properly and resting adequately? Of course I think of you all the time. I think of how beautiful you are, and how much I love you. Nothing much going on here for me today besides the usual. But I do want to talk about a dead squirrel and a dead rat.
Now my Bat Cat has acquired a taste for squirrel meat. I saw him going after squirrels before, and he's getting quite good at hunting them. He doesn't just hunt them for sport, but he eats the abdomen and the stomach then he leaves the rest for the ants. Yesterday, he enjoyed a squirrel dinner on the concrete of my parents' yard. You can see the trademark of his dining habit: only the head and the tail/hind legs are left, plus you can see all the army ants digging into the leftovers. But what does it mean? Does it mean that it's pointless for me to save for tomorrow, and just live for today? Or does it mean that I can already reap the fruits of my work?
Last night, I laid a trap for a mouse in my parents' kitchen. My Mom had been complaining about a fat mouse terrorizing her kitchen, then I also saw evidence of a mouse eating half a banana. This morning when I went to get the trap, there was a big fat mouse in there. So fat, that I guess it should be a rat. Now I usually leave the trap out in the sun to finish off the mouse, and the ants usually come and kill it for me, or the sun would do the job. But the ants strangely enough were not interested in this rat, so it took 6 hours under the sun for it to die. As you can see from the snapshot, the rat had been dead for a few hours and is waiting to be cremated in the bonfire, and there are still no ants on it. But what does it mean? Could it be that a fat, corrupt politician finally gets what he deserves, and nobody pays any respect to his body?
Nah people, maybe it's just a dead squirrel and a dead rat.
