Letter to Julia 20140830

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

Hello there, my dearest Julia and Erin.  How are you feeling today, my beloved wives?  My Rock and Roll Babes!  Better than all those other girls, huh?  Well, I think you are.  Because you are MY girls.  You are the most beautiful girls in the world.  Because you are MY girls.  MINE, MINE.  I love you, and I need you.

This is my week of isolation, where I try to avoid the Internet and people in general as much as possible, so please forgive me if I don't write so often.  It has nothing to do with you, in fact I wish you were with me to share my isolation, and I can spend the week just kissing you.  My Dad made arrangements to remove the 2 giant trees behind my small house, which was raining debris on my roof and breaking the shingles, plus being a fire hazard at that.  For this I am grateful, for I don't have to wait until I can afford to have it done.  So I spent the evening cutting grass and moving things around and chopping other trees and things to make room for the removal.  So now my feet hurt, and I just want to relax and watch TV.  Wish you were here.

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

Loving greetings, my beloved Julia and Erin.  How are you feeling today, my most precious darlings?  I've had a lot of homework lately for sure, but it's also been raining a lot.  I prefer to warm up over having to cool down, so the weather has been awesomely comfortable for me.  So this morning I slept in after the dawn prayer until 11 am.  Alhamdulillah, I feel like a wealthy man.  But I'm not wealthy yet, just lazy.  I just want to snuggle with you and make love all day.  But I'm an old man, so I can't even so that.  I'm going to have to do drugs to keep up with one of you, let alone the both of you.  I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.

It's been over 2 weeks of Kitten TV, and my kittens are still alive!  SubhanAllah!  Alhamdulillah!  LailahaillAllah!  Allahuakbar!  Actually, they seem to be doing quite well.  They can see now, so when I peer in on them while they're sleeping, they all open their eyes simultaneously, and I am greeted by 5 pairs of kitten sized cat eyes glowing at me.  They're also able to crawl now, so they've been able to escape the cave I made for them.  This cave is a box of dimensions 22" x 10" x 30" laid flat on its side, with air holes poked in on top, and draped with old sarongs to absorb moisture and moving air.  So the mouth of the cat cave is wide open, and the kittens have acquired the famous curiosity that cats are famous for, and have started crawling out then bawling when their little legs get tired.  So Mama Cat has more than a mouthful to keep the babies in their crib, after all she can only carry a mouthful at a time.  So I taped a 3 inch barrier at the mouth of the cat cave that their hind legs can't scale, so what is visible is 5 little kitten heads neatly arranged on top of the barrier.  Cute!  I love kittens!

Hi there, my gorgeous wives.  I want to say that I love you, I love you.  I miss you terribly even though we've never met, because I need you, I need you.  I pray that you are taking good, sweet care of yourselves n my absence, and that you are maintaining your prayers.  Please be my wives, and join me in Islam.

Here's a Kitten TV newsflash: Batty-Watty Bat Cat has blue eyes!  Kitten eyes are generally dark, so you can't tell what color they are, but Batty's eyes are such a deep, powerful blue that they shine.  He's so friendly, too.  What a cute little kitten!  They are all so adorable.  The kitten of choice according to mama cat Floofy is little -------, the white and blonde calico.  She's like a little Floofy clone.  Floofy has become much more civilized since I first met her.  She never uses the cat box lately.  Instead she asks to go outside, then asks to come back in.  It's been raining a lot lately, and the rain agitates her, probably because she lost her first set of kittens to the flu.  So a couple of times, she started moving the brood, then puts them back.  That's how I found out which kitten was her favorite, by observing the first kitten she moves.  I love kittens!

Qur'an 20140825

67.  To every people have We appointed rites and ceremonies which they must follow: let them not then dispute with thee on the matter, but do thou invite to thy Lord, for thou art assuredly on the Right Way.

68.  If they do wrangle with thee, say: "Allah knows best what it is you are doing."

69.  Allah will judge between you on the Day of Judgement concerning the matters in which you differ.

70.  Know you not that Allah knows what is in the heavens and on earth?  Indeed it is all in a record, and that is easy for Allah.

71.  Yet they worship, besides Allah, things for which no authority has been sent down to them, and of which they have no knowledge: for those that do wrong there is no helper.

72.  When Our Clear Signs are rehearsed to them, thou will notice a denial on the face of the unbelievers!  They nearly attack with violence those who rehearse our signs to them.  Say, "Shall I tell you of something worse than these Signs?  It is the Fire!  Allah has promised it to the unbelievers!  And evil is that destination!"

73.  O humans!  Here is a parable set forth!  Listen to it!  Those on whom, besides Allah, you call cannot create a fly, if they all met together for the purpose!  And if the fly should snatch anything away from them, they would have no power to release it from the fly.  Feeble are those who petition and those on whom they petition!

74.  No just estimate have they made of Allah: for Allah is God that is Strong and Able to carry out God's Will.

Al Hajj 21:67-74

Allah knows best what it is you are doing.

Shall I tell you of something worse than these Signs?  It is the Fire!  Allah has promised it to the unbelievers!  And evil is that destination!

Hey there, my beautiful Julia and Erin.  How are the most beautiful girls in the world?  Yes, you know it.  You are more beautiful than all the other girls in the world, because you are MY girls.  MINE, MINE.  I pray that you are feeling great, having a blast, and maintaining your prayers.  I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.

It's raining heavily right now.  I spent the evening cutting grass over at Casa de Julia inshaAllah.  More of those tiny vines with pretty blue flowers are growing there.  They are the same size as clover, which is also abundant over there.  My Mom had me take down all the jackfruit, which was growing on only one tree this year.  The other trees had no fruit.  I don't like jackfruits and durians.  Too sickly sweet for me.  For dinner, I had the same thing I had for lunch, which was curry puffs with bamboo shoots.  The dough I made from coconut milk didn't brown, but it's still OK if you don't care about color.  My Mom couldn't resist gloating though, when her dough rose higher and browned better.  I love you, Mom!  She has to be the most competitive cook in the world.  Why do people have to be so competitive?  I don't have a competitive bone in my body.  I find that jealousy eats creativity.  Fine, don't listen to me.

I acquired a lot more homework to do, but I think I'll play a round of Krush Kill and Destroy instead.  I'm so lazy.  I like KKND better than Warcraft.  Even though Warcraft has more detailed sprites and graphics, KKND sprites are faster moving, and the game allows up to 1000 units per army on the field at a time.  I usually face 7 armies by myself.  So utterly alone.  The computer is a very clever enemy, using multi-prong attacks, and it calculates the weak spots, but the computer is wasteful and callous.  The entire screen can be filled with enemies, so many that I can't find my cursor.  So much mayhem!  I've never been so macho in my life.  Second Life is a much girlier game, but there are too many perverts online.  And I don't have Internet at home, so I play KKND.

At first I thought the kittens were afraid of me, but it turns out that they were snarling at me.  Grrrrrrr.  I guess they don't like some moron screaming, "Oh my God!  KITTENS!!  KITTENS!!!" at them while they're trying to sleep.  I grumpy when I just wake up, too.  ------- seems to be the grumpiest of the bunch, while Bat Cat and ---- seem to be the friendliest.  I love kittens!

Hi there, my beautiful Julia and Erin.  How are you feeling today?  Doesn't it feel great to be so gorgeous?  I wouldn't know.  I'm not pretty like you.  I've had a lot of homework the past 2 days, but I got it all done, and now I can kick back and play a nice, relaxing game of Krush Kill and Destroy.  How I wish we were together, so I can kiss you and kiss you.  Please take good care of yourselves, eat properly, and get sufficient rest.  I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.

It's time for Kitten TV!  Here's a news flash: kittens are so soft!  They're like extra fluffy velvet stuffed with jello!  It's been 10 days, and my kittens are still alive!  SubhanAllah!  Alhamdulillah!  LailahaillAllah!  Allahuakbar!  Actually, they're getting rather plump.  Little ------- was the first to open her eyes.  Next was ----, followed by Bat Cat.  Lastly, ---- and Bob Cat opened their eyes at the same time.  All of them seem quite scared of me.  Well, I'm not pretty like you.  Eventually they will figure out that I'm the human who feeds their mother, I hope.  I love kittens!

Qur'an 20140821

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

49.  Say, "O humans!  I am to you only to give warning."

50.  Those who believe and work righteousness, for them is forgiveness and a sustenance most generous.

51.  But those who strive against Our Signs, to frustrate them, they will be companions of the fire.
