Letter to Erin 20150412

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

Hey there, Erin my darling.  How are you feeling today?  How's your home?  It is a nice place to kick back and relax?  Is it a nice place to work pleasurably?  People aren't bugging you too much at home?  Ya Allah, please protect my beloved Erin.

Oh I'm trying to keep things mundane as usual.  Nothing's perfect of course, and I don't get to sleep all day, but I don't feel good if I sleep too much any way.  Everything has to be just right.  Damned worldly perfection!  I wanted to do a lot of pruning after the Asr prayer, but it rained heavily.  So I gave up on yard work, and instead I made chicken noodle soup for dinner.  Lunch wasn't all that extraordinary either.  I had one last dough ball and some sausage to finish off, so I made a calzone.  After I finish this letter, I'll play the drum for a bit, then veg out and watch TV.

I pray you are trying to slow down as well, and take care of your precious heart.  Please know that I love you very much, and I need you.

I suppose there has been too much cat activity around here lately.  So this morning about 4 am, a wild dog came to my house and started barking at my cats.  Then I went outside to chase it away, and it ran off to the other houses to do its barking fit.  Yeah, there are wild dogs around here.  They live in the jungle and the ditches, and they usually don't show themselves to humans because someone would call the Department of Animal Control to send someone to shoot them.  But it's 4 am, so no one would, and the dog had its day in the spotlight.  Kitty Cat Kitty Cat, Meow! Meow! Meow!  Doggy Woggy Doggy Woggy, Bow Wow Wow!

But Bobby got me all upset this evening.  He's been scratching his eye again, and it made me livid.  Bobby, it's Friday!  The vet is closed on weekends!  And that eye won't heal if you scratch it!  I think he's been toying with me all week, so I can feel helpless on the weekend.  I got so mad with him, it gave me heartburn.  But I agree with the dog, that there has been too much cat drama lately.  So I cut down the cat tails that were growing by my porch.  Oh don't worry, they'll grow back.

Well I hope you're doing great, my beloved Erin.  I'm just trying to keep things mundane around here.  Please take good care of yourself Sweetheart.  I love you, and I need you.

Hello Erin, my darling.  How are you feeling today?  Are you feeling feminine today?  Well, I'm not.  It's hard to feel feminine when I'm not pretty.  I feel like a chimpanzee.  I feel like screaming, and thumping the trunks of trees.

Yeah it's been crazy lately, and people have been behaving crazy, but that's been par of the course for me for a long time already, and me alone but alhamdulillah.  It's both a curse and a blessing of the music, for which I am grateful to Allah.  I don't consider myself a good or pure man: if it seems that way, then Allah set it up that way.  Allah has been pretty much my only friend, and for that I am grateful.  But I don't need it to be crazy just for the sake of being crazy like most people.  So I hope you don't mind if I try to keep life mundane to the point of lazy.

Allah did give me some cats, alhamdulillah.  Bob Cat is finally winning all of his fights, and I don't have to do his fighting for him.  Even the cats know that, and they start their fights at my inconvenience, like when I'm trying to sleep, or taking a dump etc.  But like I said, Bobby has been winning his fights lately.  I mean what's the point of being macho if you don't win your fights?  I have to fight on a spiritual level, so I just try to do what Allah tells me to do by inspiration through the Qur'an.  InshaAllah.

You don't have that kind of problem.  Women don't have that kind of problem.  Men have to be soldiers, and stuff like that.  But I want you to keep yourself safe, because you are very precious to me.  I love you, and I need you.

That was I big tuna I bought the other day.  Huge.  Almost 2 and a half kilos.  I was planning to make breaded tuna cutlets for fish and chips, but I wound up steaming all that meat instead.  Tuna salad mix!  First I had to make some mayo.  Then I chopped up fresh cilantro and red onions, broke up all that steamed tuna meat into a mixing bowl, and folded in a lot of mayo, with salt, pepper, and lime juice.  Tuna salad mix is so easy, but it has a short life, and I had a lot of it.  I mean a LOT.  No!  Not a salad!  Not with my tuna salad mix!  So last night, it was a tuna salad burrito with lettuce and tomatoes, or shall I say wrap?  This morning I went and bought a loaf of sliced bread, so for lunch I had tuna salad sandwiches with lettuce and tomatoes, and for dinner I had tuna melts with lettuce, tomatoes and melted cheese.  I'm about tuna-ed out right now, but I have to say it's pretty good tuna mix.  I have one serving left.  Would you like a tuna salad?  With ranch dressing?  Erin dearest?

I pray that you taking it easy, but having a great time.  Erin you are my love, and I love you with all my heart.  I love you, and I need you.

Oh, I need to report that after taking an even closer look, Floofy didn't get the tip of her tail cut off after all- it was a different cat.  Sorry folks, but Floofy sure put up a great act as if that severed tail was hers.  If there had been a hex or threat intended with that cat tail, it wasn't meant for me.  But I took that tail and put it on my side of the wall anyway.

Qur'an 20150409

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

52.  Say, "Do you see if this is from Allah, and yet you reject it?  Who is more astray than one who is in a schism, far?"

53.  Soon will We show them Our Signs in the regions, and in their own souls, until it becomes manifest to them that this is the Truth.  Is it not enough that your Lord does witness all things?

Expounded 41:52-53

Do you see if this is from Allah, and yet you reject it?  Who is more astray than one who is in a schism, far?

Floofy's tail got chopped off!  Yes, the end of Floofy's tail got cut off.  I was gassing up the motorcycle over at my parents' house, and I saw a cat tail in front of my younger brother's door.  It looked like Floofy's tail, but I thought to myself this morning when I fed her, she still had a long tail.  I looked again during the evening feeding, and yes, she still had a long tail.  Then the next day, I looked closer, and it seemed that her tail didn't seem so long.  And the tip of her tail had been cut: a clean cut, done by a blade.  So no cat could have done it.

So is it witchcraft or innuendo?  Sorcery is an act of paganism because it invokes powers other than God's, and actions speak louder than words.  The other option is innuendo, and I have been threatened with innuendo all my life, from the worst kind of humans.  Allah knows who did it, and I study the Qur'an and Allah guides me inshaAllah, so I know who did it too.  This is a case of perversion of the truth in the Signs of God.  May these people realize that Allah is Forgiving as well as strict in punishment.

Meanwhile Floofy seems to be handling it well.  She spent the afternoon inside, and I hugged her tight and comforted her.  There doesn't seem to be any infection inshaAllah.  Poor Floofy.  Bob Cat's eye is tearing up excessively, so I had to incarcerate him to make sure his eye doesn't fuse shut.  I caged Bat Cat with him to keep him company.  Poor Bobby.  Ya Allah, please protect and heal all my kitties, and punish those who hurt them.

What drama!  What a never ending show!  That's Shadowplay TV, the best and most watched TV station in the world mashaAllah.  Just in case there's a butterfly effect, I want you to be cautious too.  Don't take anything for granted, and learn to read hearts.  Please stay at home in you are not working or absolutely have to go out.  Ya Allah, please protect my sweet Erin.  Erin I love you, and I need you.

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

Hello Dahlink.  How are you feeling today?  How's my Rock and Roll Babe?  It's hot again today.  Ugh.  Just like yesterday.  It rained at sunset yesterday, so I suppose it will rain again today.  The humidity makes the heat miserable, and weakens the AC.  Thank God for AC!  I don't like hot weather, and I loathed the desert when I lived there.  What I miss is the Salt Lake City mountains, and its distinct 4 seasons.  But I love the kampung, I love it right after the rain stops, and I love the seafood here.  Alhamdulillah.

So I went to the market first thing in the morning today.  My front tire went flat about a mile out, so I had to turn back and take my Dad's motorcycle.  I bought a kilo of tomatoes.  There were some large snapper there today, but I really didn't feel like scaling fish, and you need a pair of pliers with the big snapper.  So the catch of the day is... tuna!  Specifically, short tailed tuna, or known locally as Tongol.  There was a small mountain of tuna today, and dirt cheap too, probably because there were so many.  RM3 a kilo.  That's cheaper than mackerel by about 60%, so I bought a big fish over 2 kilos.  It's the type of tuna that they use in the budget cans in your air conditioned supermarket.  It's not as tasty as yellowfin tuna (I've never had bluefin), in fact I don't like it for sushi at all.  Tastes watery on the unpalatable side.  But I'm guessing it will make great fish and chips, and fish broth.  And no scales!  There was so much meat left over after I processed it, so my cats had the motherlode of snacks.  Mondo snackipoo-o!

Bob Cat's eye seems a lot better today, so I didn't take him to the vet.  The swelling has gone down, and he can almost open it all the way.  And that bald patch between his shoulders... I'm certain that's a battle scar made bigger by scratching.  There's some hair growth happening.  I hope it's not a blood disease.  Feline leukemia is incurable and highly contagious.  Ya Allah, please heal and protect all my kitties.

So are you and your friends coming over for dinner?  Or are you just sailing?  For dinner was sausage and fresh tomatoes in marinara sauce, served with deep fried bread.  I would love to see you.  I love you, and I need you.
