The cat that can open doors

As you know, Floofy darling is one of those cats that can open doors.  She jumps up and hangs on to the door handle until it turns, and uses her momentum to shove the door open.  But if she's trapped inside, then she can't push the door open.  So I trapped her inside the cat box room while I gutted the 2 kilos of mackerel I bought at the market.  Yeah, I went to the market early this morning right after the dawn prayer in hopes of finding cheap fish and I was blessed to find mackerel going for RM3.50 a kilo.  I also bought some tofu and won ton skins.  Time for stuffed won tons!  But first I had to gut and portion all that fish.  Most of it is for Floofy darling since she can't eat solid cat food anymore, but I planned on keeping the fish with loose stomachs for lunch.  As you know, mackerel with loose stomachs are ideal for sushi/sashimi, and by the time I had finished filleting I had about a third kilo of sashimi for lunch.  But meanwhile I was gutting the fish, and Floofy darling walked up casually to me with a meow that translated to "Can I have a snack now?"  She had figured out how to hang onto the door handle and pull the door open.  So I put her back into the cat box room, and braced the handle with a handy stick of bamboo so the handle couldn't turn.  What about that, huh?  The cat that can open doors.  Want some sashimi, Erin?  I wish I had some wasabi, but I enjoyed the fish with soy sauce and onions.  A third of a kilo is a LOT of raw fish.

Hey Natty honey, are you feeling better?  I forgot to add how beautiful your clothes are, and how awesome looking the set is.  Very artsy!  Well be patient in the waiting around, inshaAllah it won't be too long.  Please make sure you have fun but stay safe, OK?

Hi Pina!  I guess it might be necessary that you have an escort to go to Cuba, but I don't think the country is as bad as it was in the 1950's.  The current government did kick the Mafia out of the country already, you know.  I don't picture the place as being very glitzy, just hot and sweaty.  But you're a cool cat.  And you like the hot weather, don't you?

29.  Say, "On the Day of Decision, no profit will it be to unbelievers if they believe!  Nor will they be granted a respite."

Star

Go ahead and be a star, honey.  Don't hold back or feel held back on my account.  I want you to shine, because I love you.  Just don't jump up onto my counter top and try to eat my lunch while I'm still cooking it.  Then hiss at me when I push you away.

Aw Natty, you are such a beautiful girl.  You may feel lonely with all this waiting around, but please know that I am always with you and am thinking about you and wondering what you are doing and how you are feeling.

Hi Pina!  Still in Amsterdam?  Eat a herring for me!  Oh, don't say you are sick of raw herring.  How can you get tired of raw herring?  It's yummy!

Hello my Darling

How are you feeling today, my love?  I hope you are keeping cool and your cool, and are not overworking.  I certainly am trying to keep cool here.  It looks like it's going to be a hot day today and since I no longer have air conditioning, I have to make extra measures to keep cool so I don't wind up in a bad mood 24/7.  I loathe hot weather.  I heat up so easily.  There's another set of windows in my bedroom/office on the south facade which I always kept closed when I had A/C.  Now I have to keep them open, and I find myself staring at your house inshaAllah most of the time.  Well, the old house that sits on the land of your house inshaAllah.  I'm sure your house will have great air conditioning to go along with a great matron.  By that time, I will have a new A/C installed in my office/bedroom inshaAllah.  I'm determined to turn this stuffy old room into a walk in refrigerator.

Hey Natty honey!  How are you doing, gorgeous girl?  Love those colorful leggings!  You certainly have some dancin' style!  Are you still doing modeling?  You seem like you're keeping under the radar.  I know you want to let your big brother shine above you, but I want you to make as much money for yourself while you have the chance.  So please do so, OK Sweetie?

Hey Pina, I forgot to mention what a beautiful red dress that is.  That's an old photo, right?  Cuba is renowned for its medical facilities, so when you're down there you might want to clone yourself.  No, I'm kidding!    I like pretty blondes, but there's no need for you to clone yourself.

Alhamdulillah

My air conditioner died.  No, I'm not happy that my A/C conked out, I'm just trying to be grateful for what Allah has given me.  Perhaps Allah has something better planned for me, like a super powerful A/C that can keep this stuffy little room of mine freezing cold, because obviously the last A/C couldn't handle the job.  Right now I'm so tempted to move to Canada where it never gets hot, but my orders are to stay and stand my ground here.  How are you doing, honey?  You must enjoy summer.  Most women I know don't like cold weather but me, I certainly have plenty of  body heat to share.

Hey Natty, you're looking scrumptious.  Are you feeling good?  Oh, you're taking ballet?  I certainly would enjoy watching you dance.

Hey Pina, have fun in Cuba!  Have fun at whatever you do.  After all, only you are as pretty as you.

Qur'an 20170806

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

10.  And they say, "What!  When we lie hidden and lost in the earth, shall we indeed be in a creation renewed?"  No, they deny the meeting with their Lord!

11.  Say, "The Angel of Death put in charge of you, will take your souls.  Then shall you be brought back to your Lord.

Jealousy

Chemical warfare is certainly horrifying, but nowadays it has come to a "personal street war" situation.  Attacks with acid and other corrosive liquids became popular in Asia, and is now picking up momentum in the West.  Since you are so beautiful, this kind of danger especially affects you.  Dressing modestly (as the Islamic dress code) reduces the possibility of anyone paying attention to you, but since you are conditionally averse to this and since you live in the Public Eye, it is necessary that you prepare yourself for the possibility of an acid attack.  Carry a large bag and wear shades to shield yourself if you can, and always carry water to at least buy you some time to find a faucet.  Never take for granted that you have a high profile, no matter how humble you feel you are.
