Kitchen Explosion [2010 original with AI background]
Welcome to another edition of Weary Wednesday! I don’t know what was up with the animals last night, but it was after 1:30 before they all finally settled down and went to sleep. I’m blaming the fact that neither Kat nor G was home, which left half the cats without a snuggle buddy. Tipper doesn’t allow the cats in her room because of allergies. As a result, they were all running in and out of the Recovery Room, picking fights with the dogs and each other. I’m seriously dragging this morning.
Tipper seemed to have a good day. With Cycle 2 having started this week, she’s excited about the engineering and radio classes that she’s taking. World History, not so much. I reminded her that history is kind of my jam, but the problem, as it was with Spanish, is that the teacher is soft-spoken so she can’t hear half of what he’s saying. In the engineering class yesterday, they built towers out of spaghetti and mini marshmallows. Her group came in second. In her opinion, they should have won. The first-place team stuck an extra piece of spaghetti on top, giving them a centimeter’s edge. Tipper objected that the winning tower wasn’t as strong and would have fallen in the wind. It is exciting to see her so passionate about a subject!
I was frustrated yesterday as I wanted to post all the pelican pictures from Monday. There are 23 pictures in total. It took four hours to get them all uploaded to the server, which crashed twice during the process. My plan is to post them this morning if I can manage to stay awake long enough.
There’s not really anything life-altering in the news this morning. Politics are politics. War is war. Neither makes a lick of sense. Of course, that doesn’t prevent Reuters from going where none of us want to go: What could happen if Trump rejects the US election results. The deep dive is a disturbing look at what could potentially happen between Nov. 6 and January 21. As the race tightens, voter registration rolls are being inspected and, in some cases challenged, but no matter what you need to vote! Don’t trust what you see in the polls. They were wrong in both 2016 and 2020. Just go ahead and vote.
A number of places are waking up to frost on the ground this morning. We were still too warm here as cloud cover both insulated the ground and kept us from seeing the supermoon and the comet that was passing. The clouds will be gone by tonight, though, so be sure to bring in your plants, animals, and spouses.
I have a kitty sitting behind me, making biscuits on my back. I shouldn’t, but I may have a bagel for breakfast this morning; that’s easier than having to fight the cats over cereal, eggs, or bacon. Eating breakfast shouldn’t be this much of a struggle.

Is this my future? Indiana woman, 103, dies while on an FSSA Medicaid waiver waitlist. Indiana’s Medicaid requirements are some of the worst in the country. People shouldn’t be dying while waiting for basic help. All the more reason your vote matters.

Fortunately, no one bothers my coffee.
