You look up suddenly and two cats are staring intently at you. What do you do?

2023 was the year I pushed myself back into reading again. I recommend all of these:

The Hyperion series by Dan Simmons.

Kaiju Preservation Society by John @scalzi. Thank you for my autographed edition of Starter Villain - it was the highlight of my Christmas presents and will be the first new book I read in 2024!

A Memory Called Empire and A Desolation called Peace by Arkady Martine @ArkadyMartine

A Mystery of Mysteries: The Death and Life of Edgar Allen by Mark Dawidziak

The Fall of the House of Usher by Edgar Allen Poe

All the Birds in the Sky and The City in the Middle of The Night by Charlie Jane Anders @charliejane

The Sympathizer and The Committed by Viet Thanh Nguyen

The Wager by David Grann

The first three books in The Expanse series (will start with the 4th in the New Year) by James S. A. Corey

Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin

Got any suggestions for 2024 reading?

Honestly, one of the best treatments for my symptoms has been this old hammock out on the deck. The way my weight is suspended, the gentle rocking, fresh air, birdies and squirrels to watch, a good book, and a reminder to slow down and relax.

What's been working for you all lately?

Today is my one year Fediversary! ๐ŸŽ‰

A year ago, I decided to give Mastodon a try and I've never looked back. I found fellow Twitter refugees and discovered amazing OG Fediverse accounts. Many of the folks I discovered in my local feed are still my favorite follows. Y'all are stuck with me now. โค๏ธ

Happy Thanksgiving from Renard and Charlotte, aka Ankle Warmer XL and the Ankle Warmer 2000.

I'm thankful for you all for keeping me informed and entertained. The cats are thankful for extra helpings today ๐Ÿพ

Me: hey Renny, I got you a new cat bed, come out of that box and try it out!

Renny: no.

Just grabbed on sale and have been playing it most of the day today. It's so relaxing and zen and plays nicely on the .

For , some silly/helpful bots:

@1994clipart - who doesn't want to relive/live the majesty of 1990s Corel Draw clipart?

@compliments - oddly worded compliments

@hydrate - hourly reminder to drink some water, or make it a drinking game. You do you.

@bigben - the time in the UK each hour as shown by clock towers, but it's the "BONG BONG BONG" in the text that makes it funny for me.

What's some of your faves?

podkaynelives, to animals

Me: tries to tell a joke.
Charlotte:
Me:

Btw, this is the first time I've really been able to capture how colorful her eyes are.




podkaynelives, to Cats

Charlotte is sleepy and grumpy. What do you call that: Greepy? Slumpy?

The Ankle Warmer 2000 is an excellent product. I got the Cookies and Cream design and it's really held up well. Would recommend to everyone.

The Cerritos makes her sleepy.

The Ankle Warmer 2000 kept me company last night. And yes, the screen does say Breadley Cooper ๐Ÿ˜†

Derping out on the last work day before Thanksgiving break.

My cats gave me a lovely birthday card. Such good penmanship!

podkaynelives, to mecfs

My personal forecast for today: foggy, with a chance of ... um... what was I saying again?



podkaynelives, (edited ) to random

Me, to cats: hey I just bought you a new cat water fountain! It's in the other room! Come try it out!

Renny says it's been a long day, put your feet up.



podkaynelives, to animals

My manager, micro-managing me this morning. His style is paws on.


podkaynelives, to animals

Nap like there's nobody taking your picture and then posting it online.


podkaynelives, to HashtagGames

Meeeeeeeee and Mrs......Mrs. Davis.


podkaynelives, to animals

But you see, if I swept my deck, I wouldn't get cute pictures like this. I make this sacrifice for you.

From my birthday earlier this week.
