Today arrived sunny but cool - 47 degrees and a breath of breeze from the west. But the clouds have begun to pile up in the west, and we're expecting more rain this afternoon and evening. At least we didn't have the low that was forecast for one of the ski towns last night, which was 27! I thoroughly enjoyed supper last night, as my friend Bea and I walked the 9 blocks to Turley's Kitchen, at the corner of Pearl Street and 28th Street (aka US 36). Besides the the heavenly food, we had a good time observing other customers, and chatting with out server, a young lady from Alabama. Then we strolled back home, stopping to pick up a few odds and ends at the grocery store.
My kits wanted out immediately upon my arrival home, and I opened the patio door. Then I visited the bathroom, and changed clothes. By the time I approached the patio door, I could hear Lovey in full battle mode - howling, growling and hissing. As I stepped onto the patio, the girl next door started yelling, "You! You leave my cat alone!" I immediately called Lovey and made both her and Nedi stay inside for the rest of the night. When the girl next door adopted her cat, she told me that she'd never, ever let it run free in the back yard - apparently she started doing so while the kits and I were staying at Kathy and Jim's. The problem is that after 7-plus years here, Lovey considers herself the queen of the complex. She doesn't have upper teeth, but she has mighty claws, which move incredibly fast - and she feels the need to chasten anyone who strolls about without her permission. I hope that Baby and Lovey, and the girl and I, can come to a less war-like understanding.
I was able to cheer the Gators on yesterday, and am watching the Packers now. Tomorrow night I'll watch the Broncos, but I also want to see the new TV show with James Spader - The Blacklist. I have the feeling that James Spader will win in that contest.
