Football, but not much else

[howeird]

Today was Spook's 8th birthday. That's 48 in cat years. She was all over the place. Part of the night in bed with me, and also under the bed, in front of Jade Gate, amongst the toys in the livingroom, on the porch lookout tower, playing with the fuzzy balls on the front room tree. Her timing was a little bit off, both times she showed up to be on my lap were when I had to go to the loo. And she wanted the litterbox while I was doing laundry.

Jade has been less vocal today. And she has been by the gate a couple of times, meowing at me. She has started hiding inside a piece of cat furniture which has been in her room forever, it just needed to be moved and pointed toward the door. While I was in there I finally snapped the neck and lumbar pillows onto the gaming chair which is also my piano chair. It was not intuitive, force was needed.

Football on TV was a surprise win for the 49ers, and a surprise definitive win by NOLA against Tom Brady, whom they crushed.  I had to pause the Tivo for 20 minutes to deal with some very painful constipation.  I see the Seahawks crushed the Jaguars, the game wasn't shown here.

Spent a lot of time on Twitter being frustrated because the reality shows I follow there are broadcast 3 hours ahead of here in eastern and central time. I'll watch those shows tomorrow, but I'm full of spoilers..

Tomorrow morning is bulk trash collection, I hauled a lot of stuff out. Boxes and cold packs from Mom's Meals, the box the microwave came in, and I put the broken microwave on a small office chair and wheeled that out. A larger office chair which had no home is now in front of the roll-top desk in the front room. There was also a large Amazon box, I forget what had been delivered in it.

The dishwasher got the Mom's Meals trays clean enough to recycle.

Watched one Vets on the Beach episode, there's a second one on the same tivo recording. Doctor Who has started up again. Very happy to see Yaz as companion, but miss Graham and Ryan. And again am totally unimpressed with Jodi as The Doctor. Part of it is the writing - instead of fixing the TARDIS she whacks it with a small sledge hammer. In random places. With no visible results (we have to take it on faith it's working now). But she also is at the top of her lungs a lot for The Doctor. The special effects are impressive at first, but then the same ones are used over and over again. This was the Halloween episode, but very little was made of the holiday other than lip service. I'm more looking forward to the next Doctor than the rest of Jodi's tenure.

Breakfast was another colby omelet with French toast fingers and a sausage. I ran out of syrup. Lunch was a disaster - beef taco filling, but I ditched the soft tacos, and they totally nailed the flavor and smell of bad American-Mexican food. Most of it went down the drain. Dinner, though, was a delicious meatballs in marinade on a whole wheat bun with a side of apple crisp. During the NOLA game, to recover from the tummy foo, I made a coke float with vanilla frozen yogurt and then a refill with coffee ice cream. Did the trick.

In other news, back on Lantus and Novalog, my blood sugars are back to reasonable.

For a change all the dishes and clothes have been put away.

Tomorrow:
Take out all the garbage and recycleds
Ultrasound of my kidneys 1:40 pm at Desert Radiology. Need to start drinking 6 glasses of water 2 hours prior.
MNF?
BASFA, probably.
