Friday The Same As Thursday, The Same As…

Resa’s Tree in the background. Dale’s Peach Tree blooming in the middle. Charlotte’s Plum Tree blooming on the right.

Friday mornings are the same as any morning with coffee brewing, my morning concoction dissolving in a glass of water on the counter, waiting for the vinegar. And, of course, the cats were wanting me to top off their jug.

Loki: “I can’t look! Silver has his tongue stuck again!

Silver: “I do not have my tongue stuck!”

Silver: “Are you praying mean prayers about me, Loki?” Loki: “No! Only you pray mean prayers. I just can’t stand watching you get your tongue stuck. That’s all.”

Silver: “Don’t look at me like that, Glenda! You and Loki are always conspiring against me.”

“Uh! Paparazzo! Are you going to top off the jug or just stand looking like a stupid, long-haired redneck?”

Gwendolyn: “Pssst! Loki? I think Glenda has been brown-nosing il Poparazzo!. Glenda: “I can hear you, Gwendolyn!”

Longhaired Redneck

My first cover. Longhaired Redneck by David Allen Coe

People have asked me why I don’t do covers. My answer has been that I don’t see the point. I don’t play in a cover band, and it’s much more fun to write and record original songs. I started thinking about covers, and I decided it might be a good idea to learn songs I like as it might help to improve my vocals.

Now that I’m letting my hair grow, Longhaired Redneck by David Allen Coe seemed to be a good song for my first cover. Since I’ve been blue from all the pain, my hair is white, and I’m a redneck; I’ve been all-American Red, White, and Blue lately.

Dawn

This is my therapy bunny. I needed a pillow to rest my left arm on at night. But since I don’t have a small pillow that fits on the edge of the bed, I started using the bunny.

Spunk likes to paw the water while the other cats jug.

G&g in the back. Loki in the front.

The longhaired Redneck

Blow Me Down

The wind started blowing hard at 8:00 PM last night and didn’t let up until 7:00 PM this evening.

A wave of clouds crashing over the Sandias this evening.

“Hey, Paparazzo! We need the jug topped off!”

“Know you don’t, Silver!”

“Hey! What’s up with you, Loki?”

“Oh Lord, hear my prayer. May Loki do a little choki!”

“Keep looking the other way, Loki!”

“Hahahaha! You got your tongue stuck, Silver?”

Quiet Eyes

Dawn

“Loki, it’s lookin’ into your quiet eyes – silent tears
Silent as the night you deserted me…”

“Have you been listening to Golden Earring again, Silver?” “Yeah! What about it, Loki?”

“You’re a creep! You’re a weirdo! What the hell are you doing here singing Golden Earring songs to me?”

Hmmm! What’s this dingle dongle dangling down before me?

GRRrrrrr!

And yet another cheese standoff.

No C or C, only C, and C

No clouds or contrails anywhere to be seen. What is one to do? What is one to do?

Jupiter and the crescent moon were in the Tangle Heart Tree.

Cranes

Coyote, Wile E., that is, was hanging out with us again.

Looks like il Paparazzo put out some cheez! Yeah! What are you going to do about it?

You gonna eat that pizza, Paparazzo?

Cold Moon Rising

Cold Moon rising through an anonymous tree yesterday.

Cold Moon and Orion with black lace trees when we got home after midnight.

Hey, Spunk. I’ve been watching Marble play with her tail for the past 20 minutes. She’s quite silly.

Hey, Paparazzo! What’s sillier is that you stood there watching Marble play with her tail for 20 minutes. Hahahahahaha! Stupid Paparazzo!

Loki: “Eye don’t think any of you are funny!”

Gwendolyn: “I don’t get it!”
