By the way, if you are wondering, I have a neighbor coming to check on Isabella, and I have some cameras set up so I can check in on her. My neighbor checks on her food, makes sure her self-cleaning litter box is not stuck, and plays with her a little bit. I don’t have him feed her the wet food she likes because she won’t eat it if anyone besides me feeds her. I’m not sure why she is so finicky about who feeds her, but it’s a waste of the wet food to try to feed her. She’ll get wet food and lots of love when I get home. She doesn’t like being by herself and is always very happy to see me when I get home. I wish I could take her with me, but that’s not feasible. She’ll be fine, and I can check on her to make sure everything is okay.

Also, please go vote BLUE tomorrow if you haven’t voted already. I cast my ballot last week since I would not be here to vote tomorrow in person. Even if you are in a state where the result is a foregone conclusion Kamala Harris needs every vote she can get. She not only needs to win the Electoral College but also enough individual votes to provide definitive proof that she won. Trump will declare victory regardless, but the proof needs to be indisputable. We cannot let a wannabe fascist back in the White House. It’s also not enough to just vote BLUE for president, but we need to win majorities in both houses of Congress.
If I were in the USA, I would vote blue: it's my favorite color.
ReplyDeleteJoe, if you like medieval castles, pleasure castles, manors, bastides, large 19th century bourgeois houses, 20th century villas... you must come to France
I toured the chateaus of the Loire Valley when I was in graduate school, uvdp. The picture at the top of my blog is one I took in Amboise. I would love to go back and tour more castles in France.
ReplyDeletePlease travel safely.
ReplyDeleteHave a great conference. Hopefully, you will meet some new colleagues and start new friendships.
Enjoy exploring the town. Who knows you may find a sugar daddy.
Be present. Be open to new experiences.
