Much quieter day

Stayed in bed 2 hours past the lights coming on. Fire department scanner was very busy, a 54 year old having a heart attack at Buffalo Wild Wings, a building on fire, sounded like a residence, but the woman sent inside with the air tank did not enunciate, so I didn't catch her updates. They wear scuba-like gear with a microphone and speakers built into it. One of the fun parts of the LVFD is they send every possible vehicle to the site, and as the designated site commander assesses the situation they may cut a few units loose. There were also a number of lost firefighters - many times dispatchers send trucks to an address which they have not verified, trusting the 911 caller.

Had time to read all my news sites and win a game of solitaire.

Lunch was cantaloupe and something else, I forgot what. Banana for breakfast. Dinner finished most of last night's prime rib & rice & veggies. Plus a piece of German chocolate cake.

Around 2 pm I remembered that if I wanted a Black Forest cake I'd better go to the store. Lucky me, I got the last one at Albertson's, first try.

Sunday, so no reason to check for mail.

Deliveries, though:
Purina One kibble - I filled both cat towers and have some left over
Tiki cat treat puree tubes - Jade did not like those as much as the Churu brand, but maybe it was that the Tiki I gave her was chicken and the Churus are seafood.
Feliway spray - used it in places I wanted Jade to hang out. That did not work.
Huge container of Whiskas chicken flavored treats for Spook.
Cat grass grow kit

Spent some quality time with Jade, getting her used to me rubbing her ears on the inside. It took a couple of tries, but I got some of the anti-depressant on. She seemed to enjoy that. Need to do that every day, no idea how long it will take for her to socialize.

Watched some football. Seahawks and Raiders both looked pathetic. Packers won but they were not much better than Seattle.

Vets on the Beach double-feature is paused for now.

Took all the recycleds and garbage to the curb, also the bulk pickup - lots of boxes.

More lobster research. I think I'll go to Red Lobster after all. The other nearby seafood places either don't have lobster or make it Cajun spicy. Margaritaville on the strip was on my list, but all they have is fish sticks. And burgers. I'll go some night when their house band is playing.

Tomorrow:
Sleep in. I'm officially older at 3:20 am EST and I am not getting up at that time to celebrate.
"Like" the 6 or 7 birthday greetings on FB
Lobster dinner out
Home for dessert
