Up and... almost moving!

For having not gotten to bed until, what, almost 4:00, or was it 5:00, I got out of bed at 11:00, give or take an half hour. I can't quite recall. Sassy was terribly hungry and was letting me know. She has learned she can meow as often and loudly and fervently as she wishes. Popo will try to pay attention to her. What she can't do is scratch. She can even climb up on popo and nuzzle him. Just no teeth or claws. She learned rather quickly, which suggests to me that Britain is going about ending looting and rioting in the absolutely worst way possible. Actually, they are encouraging those things. *Bam* A couple of thousand rioters sent terrified and a little hurt? No, trust me, if a kitten can learn limits, so can those animals. But make the lessons consistent and be persistent in them. Kittens aren't all nice and cute and fuzzy and friendly as they might seem. They are all about food and will fight you for it with everything they have, and believe me, they have a feral strength and those claws and teeth which shred flesh like a hot knife through butter. Only fear trumps her instinct or she would try to kill me, even to eat me. If that doesn't quite do it, down the memory hole with the most aggressive among them. A state has to decide whose side to be be on and how far to go with it. If you are going to turn people into sheep you have an absolute moral imperative to protect them from wolves. That is an absolute and Britain failed. The only way to correct the situation is harsh retraining and culling the wolves. The cull merely becomes larger the longer they wait and the more feral the wolves among them become.

It is warming up again. And it is already later into the day as I write. Still, I can try for an early and a late ride. I won't swear either will happen, I'm simply not that awake. But I know dishes will go forward. Perhaps not at the pace I had hoped, but... I just don't know about today. Little sleep, lots of works recently, and I just don't have my feet under me yet today. The goals are clear though, and I will attempt to hold myself to them, to the capacity I am able.

Well, on with the day. Be well.
