My cats competing for a spot on my lap. I've never been popular with my fellow human beings so I've learned to appreciate the affection of my feline friends all the more. Their 'opinion' matters more to me than that of any human.
Gotta love cats! What breed(s) are they?
All mutts! 2 voids, a tortie, and a tux. 3 girls and a boy, all fixed. The two older ones (14) are sisters from the same nest. The younger ones (5/7) were rescues that happened to come into our lives at the perfect times.
Aww voidies are the best! I'm happy you were able to give the rescues a loving home!
To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.
Remind me to never get on your bad side! π± π
Random encounters with dogs
Got a particular favorite encounter?
Every dog encounter is precious
Friends sending me pictures of their cats. Those fem self euphoria moments. Digging into dinner after not eating all day without realizing. Snuggling my face into my stuffed animals after shaving. Remembering someone caring for me, though that can hurt just as much.
Hey, you're from DA, right? Points if you recognize my name.
But anyways, as someone who isn't great at coming up with things to say when talking to others in a world where it forms a social standing basis, a good successful conversation/friendship will always feel like a highlight.
I don't, sorry! I don't use DA that much as it doesn't seem all that active. I signed up almost everywhere after deciding to join social media this year to see which sites were the most active and spend most of my time on the ones that are.
I think a lot of people can relate and making new friends is always great! I take it you prefer text communication? I do too, that's because I have a habit of talking way too fast and sometimes people don't understand me π
Does "triagonal" ring a bell?
Nope
Somehow i like turning on my dishwasher. Press two buttons and you can hear it go to work. Also the joy of not having to clean your dishes manually.
Me too but with the washing machine! I love being able to smell clean laundry as I'm taking it out!
It's the small things that start meaning a lot.
I work nightshift and last year I had nightshift from 22nd Dec to I think 28th Dec (7 nightshifts) I do it for the money and so I am off longer til 10th January.
I always wear my christmas sweater to work and before I go to my nightshifts I stop at the bakery. I am 30 and this lady, I assume around 26-28 commented on my sweat "Hey you look good!".
I am not searching for a girlfriend because I have a wife lol but this still somehow felt nice. My wife also comments on how good it looks etc. but when strangers comment on that it's still kind of different.
I grabbed my coffee2go, sat in my car, called my wife and told her a young lady hit on me but eventhough I am old asf (31 lol) and she laughed and wished me a good nightshift.
When my wife and I go on vacation to italy and a car that is still with you after 3 hours drives is also nice. The last time the car behind flashed his headlights 4-5 times before he left our highway and waved. I waved back. We never saw us again.
