Mechanical keyboards and mice. I prefer to write shopping lists with pen and paper. Although the most irritating must be the touch screen in the car. You actually have to look vs being able to quickly adjust cabin controls by feel.

The lovely Lt Ripley's eyes are almost always the focus of her photos. But once in a while her tongue takes center stage.

Bast says that I may have sink privileges back after his nap. "Finish your archaeology magazine, Mum. When you're done, we'll talk."

I'm impressed that 15 plus pounds of house panther still fits in the bathroom sink. A truly magnificent beast πŸ₯°πŸˆβ€β¬›

You're all hilarious. I love the show, and channel. That said, your hair is the most amazing real-life coiffure I've ever seen. I'm drowning in covetousness. Gorgeous crowning beauty! I can't wait to get home and watch.

What, some people don't like bare stone? I think it's so beautiful to see the patterns. I love thinking that I'm sharing appreciation with a history loving mouse by the way. You add a touch of whimsy to my day. Thank you🐁

A Ripley must have her Jonesy. Poor Jonesy looks like Hex has been pruning his whiskers again. But what a handsome pink nose and permanent eyeliner.

I love mushrooms as friends, not food. Texturally, they and zucchini are squeaky, yielding but resistant. This is the worst mouth feeling in cuisine. I'd prefer sandy clam chowder.

The gorgeous Lt. Ripley. She's growing up into such an adorable, interesting, little lady. Her ears have 100 different micro-expressions. She's the household greeter between her duties as litterbox cleaning inspector.

No personal space in the cat world. If I recline on the floor Hex MUST lay half on my head. No petting allowed. Just enjoy the warmth and companionship.

"Mum! If you pet me one more time, I swear I'll go sit in the rocking chair!!!"

Mum can't control herself:

Just gorgeous. A warning to those that would try to fuck with Death's minions. The small justices for those that cannot do in death is a beautiful phenomenon for contemplation.

Is this the string you so cruelly put away so you could drink tea and read without worrying I would eat it like spaghetti!?
