Seizure

 

Hi Natty.  How are you today, Honey?  I hope all is well with you.  Little Lily had a seizure today.  I was sweeping the house and she was watching me.  She was very energetic and hyperactive, then as I was temporarily outside she had a seizure.  It lasted about 30 seconds.  She wasn't in heat, she was eating normally, she did have that fever last week which she barely came out of a few days ago.  That's 3 seizures in one year, which began with her first heat.  I think it might be congenital, maybe a lack of diversity in her family caused her to be born with brain damage.  I'm also starting to think that grey and white cats are sickly, for me that is.  On 29 April it will be one year since she and her brother came into my life.  I don't think Lily will live a long life.  Ya Allah, please heal and protect my cats.  Give them long happy lives and dignified deaths.

The stain

 Hi Natty!  I'm glad to see you are enjoying yourself.  Please be careful as to what you touch though, Honey.  Some plants don't want to be touched, and other plants have beasts lurking within them.  I think you need to study plants more.

Today is Friday, and I had to attend the Friday prayer.  It gets very chaotic when the prayer is over, and the crowd is scrambling to leave.  I have to leave immediately too, and get back to the studio to start streaming.  I don't particularly like some of the fleeting auras that pass by me as I try to leave.  I'm going to have to implement a solution for that next week.  I did my laundry in the morning.  When I pulled out my clothes to dry them, I saw a mysterious stain on my sarong while the other clothes were fine.  Can you see it too?  No, I didn't poop in my sarong.  Sometimes there are dead leaves in the tap water.  Perhaps one of them got squished into my sarong during washing.

France

 

Hi Natty!  How are you, Honey?  I hope all is well and enjoyable with you.  I decided that my trip yesterday was from fever.  Sure enough, I took a couple of aspirin after breaking fast and the sensation went away.  Adolf Kitler now has a fever too.  First Lily, then me, then Adolf, I didn't know I could catch a fever from a cat...  I guess Lookie is next in line for a fever.  I suppose you will get a fever too if that happened.  You better keep your eyes on the cat, Honey.

I kind of guessed a while ago that the French fashion bosses would try to make you a puppet for their entertainment.  I thought that if you were to live in France, people there would take you as one of their own.  But that didn't happen, c'est la vie.  The last you were in France was last year, right?  What happened back then?  They put you in a dark alley, and subjected you to potential sexual assault.  What happened after you left?  The country got hammered by Covid along with the rest of the world.  And now France is banning halal slaughter.  I'm not going to go with my ego and claim they want revenge against me.  Let's just go with a generalization that they don't want Islam in France.  By the way, didn't you eat sushi while you were in Paris?

Dessert

 

Hi Natty!  How are you, Honey?  Are you busy jetting the globe being a fabulous supermodel?  Whatever you do, please keep yourself safe and healthy, because I love you so.  It's about an hour away from sunset, and I will be having fried chicken with scrambled egg sandwiches for dinner.  I also bought some dessert: "pulut sekaya" (glutinous rice with a layer of coconut egg cream).  It's very tasty, I think you would like it.  I don't seem to think my usual way during Ramadan.  I must be leveling up inshaAllah, because everything around me seems surreal, like I'm hallucinating, but I have no drugs in me whatsoever.  Anyway, I'm going to rest a little before they call the prayer.  I love you!

Hobbit house

 

You like Hobbit houses, huh?  Those round and spherical forms don't remind me of Bond, but more of Frodo or Bilbo.  Bilbo Bond!  I think Bond preferred lush penthouses and presidential suites.  Since you like those shapes, I guess with money inshaAllah, nothing is out of the question.  I kind of wanted a roof porch, someplace to hang out above the streets on cool days and BBQ.  A place to put a backup water reservoir.  You can't really do that with a spherical house.  Do you think all the rooms of that house are spherical or round?  If so, then the house must be set up like hotel chalets.  Where would you put all of your books?  Looking out the window, you can see it's on a hill.  Ah, the proverbial "house on a hill".  I would love to live in the mountains, but I've already set up shop here Honey.  Look at all the plants and trees nearby that house.  I can tell that those are landscaped.  So how's your garden coming along?  I'm going to nag you about your garden, Natty.  Even if we get minions to tend the yard, they still need to be supervised.  What if they got an eyeful of how pretty you are?  And after even that, there's still a lot you have to do yourself.

This dress doesn't fit!  I had to shoot pictures upwards, "up the nose" if you will, to not show the nip slips.

Weakness

 Hi Natty!  How are you today, Surf Princess?  Please be careful out there, safe is boring but I need you.  I need you to keep safe.  I hope you are enjoying yourself, and keeping healthy.  I had to take Lily to the vet this morning.  She was feeling weak: she had trouble getting up, slow in general, and landing jumps by falling splat on her face.  Lily has never been to the vet, and it's a long scary journey.  When we got there, I told the vet that she was weak and tired.  Then I took Lily out of the pet carrier, and she was bouncing off the walls trying to escape the doctor.  He said, "She doesn't look weak to me".  But he determined that she had a fever, and gave her a couple of shots.  By dinnertime, Lily seemed more like herself again.  Weakness is the ultimate non-specific symptom to just about every disease out there, yet it can't be ignored.  But what about weakness in personality and willpower?  Yet more about human imperfections.  I'm not that strong, I have no power if not for the Power of Allah.
