Spaghetti again?

 

Hi Natty!  How are you today?  I hope you are well my love, and having an easy life.  I've been busy all day.  I just finished dinner, and it was spaghetti again.  It was made from all the recent pizza ingredients, except that it was spaghetti.  Italian food tends to go around in circles like that.  I didn't even bother to garnish it for the photo, I just wanted to hurry up and eat.  I was working on recording the drums all day, and trying to get the best sound.  The drums already sound good naturally, so I'm not too worried about how they capture on recording.  It's the performance of my drumming that's pissing me off.  I sound so timid and inhibited.  I haven't played in years, and the situation is uncomfortable.  But the situation has never been comfortable, I just need to remember how to go crazy again.  Drums don't lie!  Bah.  I'm kind of upset.

Qur'an 20210717

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

154.  After the distress, God sent down calm on a band of you overcome with slumber, while another band was stirred to anxiety by their own feelings, moved by wrong suspicions of Allah, suspicions due to ignorance.  They said, "What affair is this of ours?"  Say you, "Indeed, this affair is wholly Allah's."  They hide in their minds what they dare not reveal to you.  They say, "If we had had anything to do with this affair, we should not have been in the slaughter here."  Say, "Even if you had remained in your homes, those for whom death was decreed would certainly have gone forth to the place of their death."  But that Allah might test what is in your breasts and purge what is in your hearts. 

(The Family of Imran 3:154)

Shadowplay is a black hat band

 

Oh twins!  How cute!  It's nice to see you enjoy your birthday.  What are you eating?  That looks like some kind of tomato soup maybe gazpacho or spaghetti?  That also looks like some kind of ice cream cake?  Looks posh.  I guess this makes you both professional endorsers of food products.  Don't get bloated, OK!

Not much going on here other than the usual.  Lookie made me go out downtown to the pet supply store for flea drops, because she ws tearing her coat off over one flea.  ONE flea.  For lunch, I made a sweet corn omelet.  Yesterday I bought a kilo of frozen sweet corn kernels, and I'm glad I did.  Very tasty stuff.  Dinner was fries, with a cheeseburger loaded high with cashew relish.  I think you are going to be addicted to my home fries, Natty.  I've perfected the recipe, and used mediocre potatoes.  In the evening I dug up some stumps at the side of the road.  Yeah, nothing much going on.  You know, you know.

Too much or not enough

 

Hi Natty!  Sorry I'm running late Honey, but I had to register for the Covid vaccine.  I'm still eating my dinner as I write this letter.  I'm having a cheeseburger with buttered corn on the side.  How are you?  Did you enjoy your birthday?  Did you have some pizza yesterday?  I ate nothing but pizza all day!  After all, it was the Great Pizza Day!  I don't know if I could eat pizza everyday, though.  I know people that do.  When I worked at the pizza joint, there were some people that would order everyday the same thing.  I guess you could compare it to eating like a cat, if it doesn't eat the same thing everyday then it gets sick.  Anyway, I hope you are well and having a marvelous time.  I love you so much!

Happy Birthday, Natty!

 To you and your twin brother!  Oh, your birthday falls on the Great Pizza Day!  You will probably be having cake, but how would you like a pizza?  I made you a deep dish pizza for your birthday.  My camera doesn't take macro photos so the snapshots are kind of blurry, but I had to get in close because the pie was small.  After all I only have a toaster oven, plus the dish I used wasn't that deep.  I hope you have an awesome day!  I love you!

A day at the races

 Hi Natty!  Oh, your big brother took you to the races!  You don't look too comfortable, though.  Well yeah, the Nascar circuit is pretty much the furthest thing from nature you can get.  But I think your big brother took you along with him to Atlanta to help protect you.  If that had been the case, then please give him my thanks and gratitude.

I wish I could be with you during these competitive times.  If we had gone to the races together, we would dress up.  Right?  Why not?  Why not look like a winner at the races?  I would wear a top hat and tails, while you wear a frilly summer dress, and we sport binoculars on a stick.  It would be loverly!

Monday

 Hi Natty!  How ya doin'?  I hope all is peachy for you over there, and you're having tons of fun.  It's Monday over here for me, and it's been a busy day.  I don't really keep a journal, I'm not that type of person.  I just need to say something to my loved one, so this blog is as good as it gets to a journal.  There is a lot I don't talk about, you're just going to have to marry me to get the details.  Anyway, I had to run some errands in the morning.  I bought some salted fish for my mother, and more potatoes for myself.  I didn't get takeout for lunch, I just ate some leftover fried rice when I got back.  The weather was very pleasant today, thank You ya Allah.  It was so comfortable.  I cut the grass in the evening, so I bought chicken and India style rice at the night market for dinner.  I think you would like this stuff, Natty.  My cats love it.  Anyway it's time to do wardrobe for Mary's avatar, then I have to rebuild my bass drum again.  This will be the 3rd rebuild, I'm so fussy!  Plus I find it very enjoyable.  I love you!
