a game of chicken

"I wonder what happens to the chicken."

About halfway thru Hitchcock's "The Birds", which we watched last night, Jessica Tandy observes that their chicken aren't interested in the feed she just gave them. When we got to the final scene where the whole family leaves with the love birds, Sue asked the above. After all, the fowl were not among all the avians seen besieging the house. Which is a shame.

a game of thrones

Yesterday, not only did I buy a new porcelain throne, but I lifted a lady's own throne into her vehicle.

dirty beds

Today I hauled uphill the top layer of crappy soil from some of our flower beds, which I then replaced with fragrantly stinky topsoil. That should help some of Sue's flowers to make it thru the winter. I think I'll skip going to the gym tomorrow.
