Peace

It is a magnificent world, Erin Darling.  I want to share it with you.  Wish you were here with me.

Natty Honey, you look absolutely great in the morning.  How do you do it?

 

 

 

 

Dead squirrel, dead rat

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.

Monday

Hi Honey!  How are you?  How's work today?  Oh, I'm staying busy as usual.  I'm always doing something, so I guess I'm always busy.  I hope you are pacing yourself if you do have lots to do- I find that my emotions are more in control if I work slowly.  Then I find that I have worked at a good pace even though I tried to work slowly... If you're on holiday, then try not to get too stir crazy.  There are always fun things to do.  There are always fun hobbies out there, which can turn into very profitable ways of diversifying, which is what we want out of our careers as we grow older, right?  Nothing much on the menu today.  Ramen for lunch- I love ramen- then I bought fried chicken at the night market for dinner.  I had had a craving for fried chicken lately, and I'm way too lazy to make my own.  Fried chicken generates such a huge mess, I might as well just buy it since everybody else makes fried chicken.  Well, take it easy playing the waiting game.  Have faith, OK?  When God decides things to happen, they happen immediately.  I love you.  You are beautiful.

Hey Erin!  I'm happy to see you so pumped up and excited.  I like how you've been conducting your business, so keep it up!  I'm sure your use of that word has nothing to do with being worshiped, but more to do with the empowerment of women.  Thus it is.  Be the role model that you already are.

Hey Natty!  What fall?  We're only just getting started!  Look Honey, the best we can be is on the edge, so don't worry about illusions of security.  Maybe you're just too idle in your free time.  Could it be that you are a... workaholic?  Did you get a hobby like I told you?  Don't count your fingers, Sweetie: use them.  Besides, I didn't see you fall in that photo- you would have ruined all that beautiful tulle.  So grab my hand and hold on tight, this is Rock and Roll.  I won't let you go inshaAllah.

 

 

 

 

Spaghetti and meatballs

Hi Honey!  How are you today?  I hope you are having tons of fun, and you should be, because you are MY girl.  You are so beautiful.  I would like to grab you and hold you tight.  Oh, nothing much out of the ordinary going on here.  I trimmed the mango tree this evening.  It was full of army ants!  Ouch!  Dinner isn't all that special either, just spaghetti and meatballs.  Actually, it's linguini and meatballs.  I was in the middle of preparing it, when my Mom gave me some curry noodles.  Thanks Mom!  It's not enough food for me though, because I have my appetite back now, so I'll eat the pasta after I finish this letter.  I ate all the ice cream- nearly half a gallon in one sitting!  Oh my God, I had such a craving.  You want some pasta?

 

 

 

Ice cream

Hi Honey!  It's great to see you, always.  And you are looking absolutely mahvelous.  I'm glad to see that you are doing well, so please keep it up and don't forget to pray.  A lot of food came my way today.  Lunch wasn't all that special, just rice and eggs, then while I was in the middle of it, my Dad gave me a big fish.  So I filleted that later, while I was in the middle of it the power went out, so I had to process my big fish in the dark.  I had lots of sashimi for dinner, oh no photos sorry.  Then there was a small repast at the mosque after the night prayer.  Duck.  And after this, I'm having ice cream.  Vanilla and raspberry ripple.  It's the color of your swimsuit.

Hey Natty honey!  Want some ice cream?  It's yummy!
