I was looking at the “station” where the cats get fed, and next to their slimy bowl of whatever disgusting thing that comes out of the pouch they get fed with was – as is often the case – was a pile of cat puke. You know what the difference is between cat food and cat puke? Me neither. Of course, the puppies (or at least one of them) were also up to no good overnight, as they managed to crap on the rug in our family room (where we have been letting them roam freely at night, as they’ve been relative good lately). I didn’t see it, myself (it was amongst the shards of yogurt container that they’ve been happily chewing to pieces), but the wife did. And oh, how she chuckled about it. Those whacky pooches.

Meanwhile, over at my sister’s house, all three of her dogs managed to get sprayed by a skunk last night, after which hilarity ensued. I don’t know if you’ve ever had a critter get skunked (or been sprayed yourself), but it is one nasty stink to get rid of (burns your eyes, makes you gag. It’s neat). I think I’ll wait a while before visiting.

Speaking of stinking, yesterday was the first time in a long time when I sat down and watched an NFL football game. The weather here yesterday sucked. It went from a steady mist to outright downpour from time to time, and it was a little on the chilly side (would have been fine, had it been sunny). So I took Fritz to go play with his as yet unskunked cousins while I watched some football with my sister and her hubby.

Unfortunately, it was the Jets, and they were horribly inept. Especially on offense. So that wasn’t much fun to watch (although I know a couple of you were probably very happy with the game, so congratulations to you). Fortunately, I stopped taking Jets games seriously, so it wasn’t terribly traumatic for me. Just boring.

The other game that was on was the Bill – Patriots. A tough game for me to watch, since I can’t stand New England, and yet I hate Buffalo. But at least it was somewhat of a game (for a while), and as much as I don’t like the Patriots, it’s always kind of fun to watch the Bills lose at home (in front of their “Wall of Fame” which of course includes #32, OJ Simpson).

They did show us a few minutes of Atlanta starting from their own 1 inch line or so to kick a winning field goal, so that was good (not that I care about Atlanta – or Carolina, for that matter, but it was at least fun to watch).

But now it’s Monday. Bleh.
