The black feral seems to be loving his heated bed. I think he's actually starting to like me.

I put mats in the shed a year or two ago. Can't remember for certain. But he likes to stay close to the house. His fave spots are under the overhang by the kitchen and by the garage door. Both the basement and the garage are at least 50 degrees all winter.

So I figured I'd put the new mat by the garage. It's not ideal since I do need to raise the door a few times per week for deliveries. But compared to freezing his missing nuts off, it's a minor annoyance.

One more quick anecdote. Over the Spring and Summer he was spending a lot of time with his girlfriend. I would see them come from under the kitchen on a regular basis. He might be gelded but he's still a horndog.

Someone I know got a new phone, and for whatever reason they think they need to make all new accounts for everything such as Facebook for it to work on the new phone. I really don't understand the thought process of some people.

Growing up, I had to take on "the man's responsibility" for a lot of things since it was just me, mom and granny. So one thing that meant was getting at least a basic knowledge of auto mechanics.

It never ceased to amaze me how little people knew about their cars. If they thought at all about it worked, they could come up with some truly bizarre ideas.

Now we move from things that are very tangible, like a car, to things that are completely conceptual. So take that automobile mindset and magnify it by 20.

The kitties barely ate anything today. Well, at least not here. I think I might have some competition.

Another option is that they spent this rainy, bleak day in the shed sleeping. Nah, competition.
