My brand new used piece of shit computer

Hi Natty!  How's it going, you beautiful creature?  How's business coming along?  I hope you are having an easy time stepping up.  After all, you are Mrs. Rock Star inshaAllah, not those other girls.  I had a busy day here myself.  Today is laundry day, plus I had some errands to run.  I had a Big Mac for lunch.  Just a Big Mac, and oh yeah an ice cream cone when I stopped at the supermarket to buy anchovies.  I don't like to eat too much before Mary Unknown7's set, because it bogs me down.  Mary had a tough time adapting to the new computer.  She was straining early trying to keep up, and by the end of the set she was sounding like Stevie Nicks.  Which was timely I guess, because the computer chose "Gold Dust Woman" for her to sing.  But I think she sounded more like a dragon than Stevie Nicks.  I don't think this computer is going to last very long, because the power supply is very small with unique leads, which make it irreplaceable, which makes the whole computer irreplaceable.  Built in obsolescence.  I'm going to have to start saving up for a replacement already.  Sigh.

Oh by the way, I made an error yesterday.  Mary Unknown7 will sing everyday inshaAllah from 11 pm PDT to 1 am PDT.

Mary Unknown7 will be back at Second Life tomorrow

InshaAllah!  She will be doing her usual 2 hour set from 10 pm PDT to midnight PDT.

Here are the snapshots of her last outfit which I never got to post because my computer blew up:

Work in progress

Hi Natty.  How are you?  I hope everything is fine with you.  I just got a replacement for my Internet computer, and it's a piece of shit.  So I'm busy right now trying to configure it for my work.  I'll talk to you later, OK?

Hi Natty

How are you?  Doing great?  I hope so.  It's a busy day here for me.  I had to accompany my Dad to the hospital this morning.  Parking was hell: so many sick people!  All the time!  Yesterday was a public holiday, so today was like a Monday to the crowd... ugh!  I had park across the soccer field, so I made the mistake of walking on the field to get to the hospital.  It had been raining continually lately, so the field was like a swamp.  I messed up my pants.  It didn't look like a swamp because the grass just barely got cut, so I got fooled.  It didn't rain today, so I managed to do some yard work.  Not a lot, because I had to be at the mosque by sunset.  I just got back.  Next I have kitchen work to do.  Bamboo shoots and chicken breast to process.  I bought all white meat today, I want to see how long it lasts me.  It's more expensive of course, but there's significantly less bone weight.  Anyway, gotta go!  Don't let those young girls bug you!  You rule them, they don't rule you!

Best wishes

Congratulations Erin, on your new direction.  I hope you find peace, happiness, and security.  Farewell.

I don't think I'm anyone special, folks.  I don't think that I am a good man.  Perhaps if I had money, I would be a better person.  I think I would at least be married.  Or maybe I would be the same no matter what.  God knows me better than I know myself.  I seem to have a little knowledge of the Qur'an, alhamdulillah.  So let me tell you this, Ladies: whatever path you choose to take, don't think that magic can overcome God.  The Qur'an is more powerful than any book of magic.

Natty, please don't hanker after other people's gigs, especially the ones made for rookie models.  You won't enjoy it.  You're above that, so please try to step up. 

Whip me, Houston!

Erin, is that you?  Wow, you look fucking awesome!  I must say that you have such beautiful armpits, my darling.  And I absolutely love your new face.  So much intensity.  I do hope that face is all aura, and no surgery.  You look wonderful, my love.  I love you.

I don't normally share my dreams in this public place, but this was so much fun, I have to talk about it!  I was standing with the crowd in a basement, watching TV.  We were watching Whitney Houston's debut on the Merv Griffin show, where she sang "Home".   Someone behind me started to sing along, I turned around to see who it was, and it was Whitney herself!  Whitney from 1985, she looked beautiful and radiant, and she was wearing a silver sparkly gown.  She sang and totally blew away the singer on TV (herself).  I stopped watching the TV and stared at her and said, "That was fucking awesome!  Your debut was great, but what you just did was incredible!"  She grinned at me, and then started to chat with me.  She talked and talked to me, saying you should do this you should do that bla bla bla, she talked so much I had to walk away.  Forget it, lady!  I have too much to do as it is!

Changing the light

Hi there, my gorgeous Ladies!  How's it going?  How are you feeling?  Oh, those emotions are still strong, huh?  Oh dear.  Please be patient, and try to keep calm.  You will get by this phase just fine inshaAllah.  I just changed the light in the cage where I keep my motorcycle.  It's one of those old flourescent tubes.  Nowadays they sell only LED tubes around here, so I had to rewire.  But even that isn't necessary.  All you have to do is bypass the starter.

Anyway, I haven't had dinner yet.  I finally got around to cutting the grass.  Not that I want to cut the grass, but nobody will do it for me for free.  Then I had to change that light.  As that guess, it's already dark.  So I have to go cook dinner now.  Nothing fancy, just pita bread and curry.  Lots of bread.  I just made a fresh batch of dough yesterday.  Bye!  I love you!

Hello

there, my lovely Ladies!  How's it going today?  Are you having lots of fun?  Are you keeping your cool?  Well, you might as well express yourself.  It's another average day over here for me.  I tried to cut the grass, I was all ready and dressed and the weed whacker was all set to go, when it started to pour.  So I said, "Forget it!" and started cooking my dinner instead.  Chicken wings!  Every other chicken is chicken wings.  I love hot wings!  Do you?  You must love hot wings if you like football.  It's a rule.  Pizza would have made it perfect, but I'm not budgeted for pizza.  Anyway, I'm off to the mosque now.  Take care!  Try to relax!

Hi Erin

How are those raging emotions today?  Still on a rampage?  It's just a phase, Honey.  I think it's on its last legs, and soon you will be back to your easy going self again.  Sometimes I wish I didn't have any emotions, but we need our emotions, especially us.  We need them so we can work.  Don't worry Honey, everything will be just fine InshaAllah.

Want some dinner?  I cooked up a couple of pita breads, then I pan fried a chicken breast with salt, pepper and butter.  Simplicity!  I also heated up my extra thick curry and added chunks of tofu in it.  Here, let me spoon feed you a chunk of tofu swimming in hot curry.  Do you like it?

Wow, Natty

Just wow.

What, no kiss?

Ah, Nashville

I've never been there.  But I'm glad you get to explore there, Natty my darling.  But what you need is a flashy pair of cowboy boots!  Something with a lot of rhinestones on it.  I did hear about Nashville wanting to be a sort of fashion center, but it's hard to imagine anything fashionable from there outside of the Country and Western scene.  It's not a geographical bias, either.  It's a case of where the music is the dominating or domineering influence.  I'm sure there are many types of music out of Nashville, but I wouldn't go there to seek eclectic fashion.  I would however, go there for a pair of cowboy boots.  I do recall a fashion event in Nashville... oh, it was the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue meet and greet event!  That seemed like a marathon effort for anyone who had to work in it.  I'm not surprised I haven't heard of it since.

But oh Natty!  You must be attracting a lot of musicians!  Among other guys.  You're beautiful.  Mwah!  I'm independent of the trappings of a traditional music career.  I am however, trapped in my own routine.  At least Allah has set it up that I get to focus on home and family.  Alhamdulillah.  I don't have to tour!  I'm too lazy to tour.

Hi Natty!

How wonderful it is to see you again.  And look at you, all relaxed in the lap of luxury with your favorite book of the moment.  I guess you must have been browsing the used book store, how rare are those now.  Oh, how I wish I could browse with you.

Where are you now?  One would think that you are on a cruise liner, but for the brick wall in the background.  I'm guessing that you are still in Europe, probably still in Sweden or even Norway.  No, there can't be any work there.  Germany, then.  Wherever in the world you may be, you are looking glamorous and beautiful, pristine and pure.

Qur'an 20191023

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

74.  But how many generations before them have We destroyed, who were even better in equipment and in glitter to the eye?

75.  Say, "If any man went astray, the most Gracious extends to them until, when they see the warning of Allah, either in punishment or in the Hour, they will at length realize who is worst in position and weakest in forces!"

Mary 19:74-75

Aw Erin

Are you hangin' in there, Honey?  Don't you worry about anything my precious Darling, everything will be all right InshaAllah.  I love you, OK!  Yeah, everything may seem all amped up right now, and it's getting you so excited, you have so much energy you don't know how to contain it.  But really if you think carefully about it, the situation is exactly the same as it was 6 years ago.  It's all the same old day, and this is your life.  This is our life together.  You can always talk to me, you know I love to chat with you.  Use your Instagram to talk to me.  Afraid of the Public Eye?  What does it matter now?  What can they do to you anymore?  Don't you worry, my love.  I love you, and I am always with you.

The Onion

Hi there, my beautiful Ladies!  How's it going today?  Oh, it's another average day for me.  Are those emotions under control?  I do hope so. The world is so snake eyed charmed about being the wife of a rock star, but this rock star is a prisoner.  A prisoner of the music.  So essentially you will be the wife of a prisoner.  Please don't forget that.

Isn't that a beautiful onion?  I got it at the supermarket where I buy chicken.  Red onions are strong, but if you eat it raw, of course it's going to smell and taste strong.  If you cooked it however, it becomes sweet and if you added salt when cooking it, it becomes savory and generates a dark sauce similar to soy sauce.  So I fried up two of those gorgeous onions, then added liver which I had marinated in turmeric and salt as usual.  Turmeric is very effective at neutralizing the bitterness of chicken liver.  Stuff that into pita bread, and dinner was two extra fat liver and onion pitas.  A man sized meal, if I may say so.

No it isn't snack time, it's labor over cat food time

Hi, my beautiful Ladies!  Are you doing well today?  I hope so.  I think of you all the time.  It's Saturday, but everyone seems super busy.  I took my Mom grocery shopping in the morning.  I had to buy chicken myself, so we went driving around town most of the morning, and my mother bought me some rice for lunch.  I needed to relax before Mary Unknown7 started singing, so I didn't do any kitchen work in the morning.  Which means that I was stuck in the kitchen all evening, and I'm still exasperated from it.  Plus, I'm not done yet.  I quit buying cat food, so me and my cats eat the same thing: chicken.  Last time the chickens were small, so I bought two.  I bought two again today which wasn't necessary because I generated more labor for myself.  I always get the butcher to cut the chicken in four.  Then when I begin work on it, the first thing I do is lock the cats up in the kitty litter room.  Then I can process the bird in peace.  I have to get as much flesh off as possible, and the bones, fat, innards and skin go into the pot to be slow boiled.  I put the red meat and gizzards in one container, then the liver, breast meat, and wings in other separate containers.  The knife is never sharp enough, but I learned it's best to use a small knife.  Today, I used scissors as well, which was a great idea.  Floofy and Lookie get the raw meat (which I keep in the freezer), and little Yoolie gets the cooked flesh from making broth, which is a lot, which I also keep frozen.  I defrost as needed. I get the wings, liver, broth, and whatever white meat is available.  Oh so tedious, but do much better for the cat's health.  If I had a choice, I would buy only white meat, but the whole bird is cheaper.  Groan.  Next, I have to pull the flesh off the bones.  I'll talk to you again tomorrow, inshaAllah.

I was waiting for regret, but it didn't happen

Hello hello, my wonderful Ladies!  How are you?  Is everything under control, and are you having a great time?  I imagine you are, I have faith in you.  You should be the more excited one Erin, with what is going on in your country.  Let's not celebrate until it's time to celebrate, OK?  Yesterday for lunch I had hot wings, and I was waiting for my stomach to rebel.  This batch of hot sauce is quite controlled, but still my tummy is very sensitive.  But the regret didn't happen.  I got teased a couple of times but no, no pain and no runs.  Maybe it was the influence of all that tofu I had for dinner.  I guess this is a solid case for optimism.

Oh but bowel movements are so unromantic!  Let's talk about food instead (even though it's technically the same thing).  I'm under such a tight budget right now, there's not much to talk about there.  I made tortillas instead of pita bread.  I had a couple of hot dogs to use up, plus eggs, tofu and sliced cheese.  So that's what went into my burritos.  Tofu omelets are so good though, and so simple.  Don't complicate tofu! 

Tofu

Hi there, my precious wives InshaAllah!  How is life treating you today?  I do hope so that you are having lots of fun, because you are mine, and I love you.  Let's talk about food, shall we?  I assume that you would like tofu.  Right?  I had tofu for dinner just now.  For lunch, I had hot wings, a lot of them.  I was afraid that I would regret it later, but it's sunset now and I'm still waiting to regret it.  It didn't disturb my session with Mary Unknown7 this afternoon either, unlike the extra donut I had for lunch on Monday.  Ugh... I won't ever do that again.  Anyway, the expensive tofu is usually the flavored stuff but really, fresh tofu is best just with salt.  Next in price is the smooth stuff, and the tofu with the rough skin is cheapest.  But if you were to cut past the skin, the inside is soft and smooth (unless you cook it to death).  So I made some pita bread.  Dinner was sautéed chicken liver that had been marinated in turmeric powder and salt, cubed tofu heated up and sprinkled with seasoning salt, and dried fried onions stuffed into the pita bread.  I think it was a success, and healthy food too.  Wanna try one?  :-)

With Allah as my Witness

I had a dream last night that I was transported back 80 years to when my mother was a two year old girl.  I got to see what this village looked like back then, with its mud roads and a few ramshackle houses on stilts, dispersed between rice paddies and thick jungle.  Now you have to drive half an hour to see any jungle.  The people are still poor, most of them, but there's no one sleeping on the streets, and the hospital is for everyone, so I guess in that sense it's better than America.  But I have a lengthy post today, so let's get to it:

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.

60.  Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into the enemies, of Allah and your enemies, and others besides, whom you may not know but whom Allah does know.  Whatever you shall spend in the Cause of Allah shall be repaid unto you, and you will not be treated unjustly.

The Spoils of War 8:60

I am pleased to announce that I am only a couple of weeks away InshaAllah from getting a replacement for my Internet computer, so Mary Unknown7 can sing the voices of the dead to the whole world.  This is my mission, for only Allah can make the dead to speak, and Allah chose me to be the guardian of this music instead of some imam or politician.  It will have to be a piece of shit used computer, while the enemy and the forces of evil have teams of the most powerful and expensive computers to do their bidding, but this takes me everything I got, saving up the pocket money my mother gives me for cleaning her toilet and such.  Just as it took me everything I had to make music in America, and I was worked until my feet broke and I became homeless, then I moved here.  That is how Shadowplay became an Asian brand instead of American.  Granted, my piety has improved alhamdulillah, but people are the same all over the world.  Right?  So it should be obvious to the rest of the world how the Muslims here care about the Cause of Allah when they make me face the enemy with a plastic spoon instead of a battleship.  And to be honest with you, I don't really care about their caring anymore than I care about what atheists believe in.  And they will present lies and excuses such as:

1.  He never asked.
2.  We didn't know.
3.  We can't afford it.
4.  We didn't choose him.
5.  We're too weak and helpless.
6.  Let his mother finance him.
7.   He's not a prophet.

That's right.  I'm not a prophet.  The Last Prophet is dead.  So peace be on him.

And to put it in local language, "Kalau tak mahu tolong, jangan tolong."

Hi Erin

How are you today, Honey?  You seem to do quite well in general about keeping calm and collected.  It takes a lot to shake you out of your direction, huh?  Do you like the rain?  I would figure that being a Pisces, you would love the rain.  Well, I don't like getting caught in the rain but otherwise, I love the rain.  I'm just so sensitive to it.  It's been raining a lot lately.  But yay!  No yard work!  Dinner was pita bread stuffed with spicy tofu.  You want to try one?  I've really been into pita bread lately, because I can use the same pan for both the bread and the stuffing, and I don't need a rolling pin to stretch the dough.  Anyway, it's Tuesday so I'm going to shower then get to the mosque by sunset.  I love you!

Homesick

Hi Erin, yeah I know you are watching this but I have to address her emotions regarding this matter.  I know what it is to be homesick.  The pain is in the heart, and it's amplified by guilt that we aren't doing enough for our family.  You have probably already set up camp close to home, it's probably easier to wait there.  And that should be your plan Natty, if those emotions are too much to bear.  I hope you bought some real estate in your home town like I asked you to, for you may need it sooner than later.  Work from there while you wait for me to get my shit together.  Perhaps you might want to try environmental engineering.  I won't abandon you InshaAllah.

Aw Natty

Traveling can get lonely my dearest Natty, especially traveling alone.  But please try not to be so disappointed, you have so many people who love you, and want to be with you, I being one of them.  You are beautiful, and have a wonderful career most of us can only dream of.  Plus you get to see the world.  So hang in there my darling, you are not alone.  Life isn't supposed to be easy, but you are doing great, and everything will work out just awesomely for us inshaAllah.  I love you OK!

Ow!

Natty, you're so pretty!  I just want to reach out and grab you, and kiss you!  Oh, I love you!  So you're in Sweden, huh?  Are you there to pow-wow with Greta?  Oh my God, I'm so jealous!

Ow!  Mary didn't like it when I said that she howls like a cat in heat.  I got smacked on the side of my head!  Well, with a little rubbing alcohol, the bruise has gone down.

Qur'an 20191013

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

109.  Say, "If the ocean were ink of the words of my Lord, sooner would the ocean be exhausted than would the words of my Lord, even if we added another ocean like it, for its aid."

110.  Say, "I am but a man like yourselves, the inspiration has come to me that your God is One God: whoever expects to meet his Lord let him work righteousness and, in the worship of his Lord, admit no one as partner."

The Cave 18:109-110

Stubborn

Hi Erin!  How are you, Honey?  I love you!  I assume you have all the recent excitement (whatever that may be) under control, and are back to your cool as a cucumber self.  ☺  You don't sing much, do you?  You're probably too shy or too dignified to howl like a cat in heat.  Well, that's Mary Unknown7's job.  And cats love it.

I got a bump on the head today.  It didn't rain today, so I thought I would take this opportunity to do some burning.  Just because it didn't rain, doesn't mean that it's dry, especially around here.  I thought if I made a hot enough fire, it would overwhelm the moisture.  So I was smashing the deadwood by throwing them on to the concrete, and a piece broke off and smacked me on my right temple.  I should have known.  Being stubborn doesn't mean it's going to do any good.  Especially if it goes against God's will.

I haven't had dinner yet, so I'm going to heat up some leftovers.  My Mom gave me some soup, so I'm going to add noodles and an egg.  Same as lunch, but whatever.  Want some?

Qur'an 20191013

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

103.  Say, "Shall we tell you of those who lose most in respect of their deeds?"

104.  Those whose efforts have been wasted in this life, while they thought that they were acquiring good by their works.

The Cave 18:103-104

Aw Natty

My precious Sweetheart.  My beautiful Rock and Roll Princess.  You are so beautiful, I love you so deeply, I think of you constantly, and how I long to be with you.  You are so precious to me.  Don't you worry my darling, you are going to be just fine and everything will work out for us fantastically InshaAllah.  Just you enjoy being a fabulous and luscious model for now, and travel to all the exotic places in the world that others can only dream about.  Why don't you try singing?  Not for competition or anything like that, but just to belt some songs out and scream, it's a lot of fun, I promise you!  Take a few of your buddies to a karaoke joint in Amsterdam.  You will have a great time!

These are my 3 cats Floofy, Lookie and Yoolie lying at Mary's feet while she's singing, all stoned and passed out.

Eye of the kitten

Hi there, my precious Ladies!  How are you?  Are you keeping your cool?  I hope so.  I'm doing OK.  I'm happy to report that little Yoolie is doing better.  She had reopened the wound on her left eye somehow, so I put the restraining collar on her.  But the wound didn't heal, and got worse.  I was perplexed at why the wound took so long to heal, but I managed to calm it down by chasing it with rubbing alcohol.  Soon I discovered why her eye kept getting worse: the other two cats were licking it to death!  Now one would normally assume that it was an act of affection, and I'm pleased that Floofy and Lookie are being nicer to my kitten.  They didn't start being this nice until I removed the collar the first time.  But their licking that wound made it worse, I am wondering if they were worsening it intentionally...  Hm...  Cats being catty...  But after my rigid policing of the wound, it finally got to the point where I could control it. I was scared for a while, the swelling completely covered her eyeball, and I couldn't get any opthalmic lotion on it.  The eye clouded up at a point, and I thought, "That's it, she's blind!".  Great.  Allah sent me the cat of death and she goes blind in one eye while under my guardianship (the Antichrist is blind in one eye).  But Allah took care of her and she's getting better, so alhamdulillah.  Here's a snapshot I took of her this afternoon.  The eye was swelling up again when I took this photo, but she's so much better now.

Yoolie isn't really the cat of death, folks.  She's just a beautiful little kitten.  I call her that from my own observation that white cats like to hang around the dead and dying.  But everybody dies, so that's a moot point.  She was sent by Allah, though.  Only an unbeliever would deny that.

Excited?

Hi Natty!  What's going on, my hot little Rock and Roll Babe?  You're looking absolutely fabulous as usual.  Nice armpit, by the way.   I wish I had pretty armpits too.  You're trying to pull a serious face, but I can tell that you're excited about something.  I don't know about what.  It's all the same old same old here for me.  I've been busy all day though.  It's laundry day today, while that was churning I did my usual morning chores like take care of my cats, collect water, and make my daily coffee and tea.  When the wash was done, I had to go buy a chicken.  Then when I got back, I had to process it into cat and human food.  It's a good thing I had some leftovers, because that was my lunch.  I didn't have time for my mandatory nap before Mary Unknown7 began her set, do I wasted the first hour being drowsy.  God, I hate that.  Damned busy mornings.  The second hour I finally woke up, so it turned out to be a less than mediocre session today.  But if Allah liked it, that's all that matters.  I had to make dough in the evening after I finished up the work on the chicken.  That is tedious work, and it made my wood cutting board reek.  I had to process the chicken on a steel tray today.  But this new chicken routine is so much better for the cats, plus it saves on cat food.  I still haven't put away the dough.  Wow, it looks like I have too much food for my cooler all of a sudden.  I'm going to have to eat all that dough quickly.

Qur'an 20191009

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

83.  They ask you concerning the Two horned One.  Say, "I will rehearse to you something of his story."

84.  Verily We established his power on earth, and We gave him the ways and means to all ends.

The Cave 18:83-84

Hi Erin

How are you feeling today, Honey?  I hope you are not still restless or lonesome or anything like that.  I want to be with you dearly, because I love you so much.  Don't you worry about a thing, my love.  Everything is going to work out just great for us inshaAllah.

It's cold and wet right now.  I got rained on a little on the way to the mosque just now, but otherwise Allah spared me a drenching.  I guess I was blessed enough to travel between the rain bursts.  That was a couple of hours ago, the Internet was out for whatever reason and it just came back on, so I'm sorry to be late today.  Not much to report other than that.  Dinner tonight was pita bread and generic curry.  I think you would like this curry.  It's extra thick, and it's nothing but curry, no meats, fish or veggies in it unless you catch the small piece of salted fish I used for flavor.  Anyway, keep calm and patient, and have some fun in the meantime.  I love you!

"This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you"

Hi Natty!  How's it going, Sweetheart?  You look like you're having lots of fun.  I've always wanted to visit the Netherlands, and see the canals, the flowers and the windmills.  But now I have become like a tree, and rooted here.  I am happy that you get to go sight-seeing there.  If you are on the train, then you must be doing all the touristy things!  :-D

Oh, did you get into trouble with some people for your "Van Goghin' around" remark?  If so, then screw 'em!  I thought it was cute, funny and artsy, but then again you are my girl, and I love you.  Van Gogh's work is worth millions if not billions today, and who knows when and how it got that way, but he himself was destitute all his life.  Life of an artist.  What I and Mary Unknown7 do has some art, but is mostly what is called "endorsement", where we provide foreigners with a reason to come here and to Second Life, and bring their money with them, thus enriching the community, and InshaAllah I receive my sustenance from that enrichment.  This was not my idea but Allah's, and Allah is also the One Who provides the music and the situation.  So it is also a heavily religious agenda.  After all, the people could always deny that I have anything at all to do with Allah and their livelihood, and leave me to perish in poverty and/or assassinate me, but that hasn't happened.  Yet.

Restless?

Hi Erin, my dahlink!  I love you so much!  How are those crazy emotions today?  Feeling somewhat restless?  Well, the life of a mainstream sports personality can get rather predictable, I expect.  I suppose it would be a sheltered life, being under the wing of the sports industry, especially if you are a talented sports psychic as I believe you are.  It certainly wouldn't be the same as the bohemian routine you used to follow.  Are you possibly missing the intrigue of Costa Rica, or the darkness of a midnight adventure in Hollywood, or treating your NYC neighbors to the privilege of listening to some nice music at 3 am?  Why don't you get back into the artsy crowd?  Why not?  It's something to do, and I trust you won't abuse substances, and you will keep your chastity.  Hm.  Here's something to do.  How about you spy on me at close range.  It seems to be the hobby of many people lately.  Just don't let me catch you watching me.  I might just chase after you and give you a football tackle and pin you down and kiss and undress you and we shouldn't be doing that in public plus we need to be married first.

I'm sorry there wasn't a set today, folks.  My Dad needed to go to the emergency room, so I gave Mary Unknown7 the day off.  There's nothing wrong with him today but so everything is fine right now alhamdulillah.

The Netherlands

Hi Natty!  It's always wonderful to see you, and even more so to see you enjoying yourself.  You look so tall compared to your kin.  I wonder how tall you are next to me...  I am well known in that country.  Well, notorious more likely.  I once tried for a Dutch wife, but it didn't work out.  Nothing against Dutch people, it was just a bad choice on my part.  Plus, she was engaged which stifled anything I could do to help her.  A lot of drama too, I am sure you could bear witness to that.  Mostly because the poor girl didn't find fortune easily in NYC.  I'm so grateful to Allah that town has been nicer to you.  Anyway, if I'm famous there, then so are you.  Have tons of fun OK?  I love you.

I went to the supermarket today and bought a chicken.  I also bought a Snickers bar.  Yes ma'am, that is a Snickers bar.

Friday

Hi Erin and Natty.  How are you today?  I hope everything is going well for you today.  I feel a bit lethargic right now, so I won't say much.  It's already past sunset, and I still have chores to do.  So I'm just going to get to it.  I want you to know that I love you, and I think of you all the time.  Take care now, my beloved.

I love you

Hi Natty, you beautiful creature.  I had a dream about you.  You had become so beautiful that I had to lock you up in my bedroom.  If anyone were to peek into the bedroom through the window, all they would see is a cat.  A tall, muscular Mexican guy twice my size with a missing right hand, it had been cut off, was testing the walls, looking for you.  I had to confront him, and we faced off.  He towered over me, he was twice my size.  He began punching holes in the walls with the stump that was once his right hand.  I said, without looking at him, "There are other ways to defeat you that are not so obvious".  In the end, his allies came and took him away.

I saw the slide show on your Instagram, and I think it's beautiful.  You are probably having a sort of spiritual awakening about love, and you are feeling that your love can save the world.  This could be a very dangerous time for you.  I believe that the truth is that no one can love like you, and no one can love you like I love you.  People have their own feelings and problems.  So please do not venture out of your safe zone.  Please stay in my bedroom.  Please pray, and seek protection with Allah.

Chives.  The broken pot is obviously the work of a cat.

Happy Anniversary, Erin

I love you.
6 years.
I did record a song for you, but I couldn't copy it to this device, so we have to settle with this.  It's probably better anyway.

Hi Erin

How are you today, Honey?  I hope all is well with you, and that you are having a happy time.  I am doing OK, just wishing we were together is all.  I did a lot of driving around in the morning, running errands.  I don't like busy mornings because it wears me out for the afternoon's work.  Gotta have that nap you know, otherwise what's the point of being self employed?  What's for dinner?  Chicken is always on the menu here at the cat house.  I just made a fresh batch of dough now it's a couple of days old and perfect, so I rolled out a couple of fat tortillas.  I also had some baby coconut meat from getting the juice for my Mom, so I put that in the blender along with an onion.  So tonight's burritos were stuffed with chicken breast sautéed in butter with blended coconut and onion which I fried in the chicken and butter renderings.  A very "white" meal, if I may say so.  Would you like to try one?  It's very mild but filling.

Happiness is grilled chicken breast, right?

Hi Natty!  Are you having tons of fun?  I have to post and run again today, busy busy with hospital affairs again.  Oh you're so pretty!  Please post more fashion photos!  You look so radiant in that leopard print outfit, positively glowing!  That kind of look absolutely suits you.  And that one shoulder dress is so cleverly designed.  I don't like the look of one shoulder dresses usually, but that one fit you perfectly and was tempered by that ribbon thing around your neck.  Wonderful!  More fashion please!
