She has been sleeping upstairs with Shelley, who has come down to help me with my recovery. Shelley, (my daughter) informs me that Tillie needs a bath. She wants to take her to Petsmart and have them pamper her like a damned poodle! And, she thinks her nails need attention while they are at it. This has been the program lately, When Corey was here, (my son-in-law) Tillie was on the bed with him, upstairs. Shelley said just last night that Corey told her that Tillie is a total bed hog! Well, she don't pull that shit with me! She has a dog pad she sleeps on in the lower corner, opposite side, and as long as she has one portion of body part on that pillow, she feels free to stretch out as far as she can reach, which covers quite a bit of bed that technically, she is not supposed to be on. If she does get the "salon" treatment, I should go along, just to do the video. Shelley has been sending, via Prime, boxes of goodies, chew toys and dog games, now and then. I have not opened the box yet? I have no idea what a dog "learning" game is? Good luck with that, she's dumb as a box of rocks! It's embarrassing how much I am pampering this hound dog! I should probably be arrested, could even be illegal? Good hunting. El Bee -------------------- EL BEE Knows It All and Done It All. Don't piss me off!

She doesn't go out and wallow in mud or dust and goes in the pool when she feels like it without me prompting so....she still does get an occasional bath, and in fact, Corey gave her one only a month ago. It has more to do with shedding and sleeping on the bed, although she's not allowed on the furniture, which she interprets as, "when I'm around". Same with poking in the trash; when I'm around. Same with staying out of the front room....when I'm around. Other than that, she's really well behaved! (and spoiled rotten; you'd think she was a pampered little support dog that the wealthy tote.

Shelley went for beers with a few high school chums last night. Tillie whined fro three, no must have been four hours when she got back and "my dog" went upstairs to spend the rest of the night with Shelley. In fact, she didn't come down until she heard the pool man slam the gate, (he's her buddy) if you can believe this, she is the only dog on his whole route? Maybe all the rest are inside dogs, I can't believe nobody else has dogs? But anyway, she always gets super excited when she hears the gate! I let her out right away to greet him....some watch dog! I am pretty sure she likes humans better than other dogs? She gets along fine with dogs but she really likes humans! Good hunting. El Bee PS you know I learned something recently. I was cutting up some Palo Verde and stuck the back side of my right ring finger with a thorn, & through a leather glove. Well that was 3-4 weeks ago and it's infected and hurts. I picked at it, made it bleed and squeezed it but it's still tender as hell. I think there's something in there, still. But I'm sure those spines must be toxic. I never considered that before? Be careful! Good hunting. El Bee -------------------- EL BEE Knows It All and Done It All. Don't piss me off!

She really doesn't know anything and doesn't want to know. She is OK with other people controlling her life....I guess? I talk to her about stuff and she wasn't aware, DRIVES ME NUTS! Very sweet and very popular but knows nothing about history, nothing about current events, maybe a little Yelp stuff because she's a big influencer on restaurants, reviews, etc. Does facebook, of course. But. she is clueless! My very own daughter! Clueless! If I asked, I think she would know who's president. And because she lives in the Bay Area, she does know who Newsom is and who Pelosi is, but that's as deep as it goes. It's embarrassing! Good hunting.

She's not stupid, just has no interest in either current events and has zero historical perspective. I mean, maybe she has a vague idea who the ancient Greeks were and might know we had a civil war, but what it was about and who was involved? I wouldn't bet the rent! Yes, I could arrange an "intervention" and she would be polite and cooperate but if we included Tillie, she would probably understand on about the same level. As to how important it is for me to "woke" her, I think she functions the way she is and doesn't understand what the big deal is? I know that it allows motivated people to take advantage and walk all over her, but she's in her non confrontational little world and a 180 degree conversion is not happening. I really didn't understand but I do now and she's just apolitical. I guess it's a coping device? She is, however, a RABID DODGER FAN, and has all the gear, so there's that. Good hunting. El Bee PS also does not want to talk or hear about killing things. She just spent $6,000 on her Pug, who is 16 years old with Pancreitis, I think she called it? -------------------- EL BEE Knows It All and Done It All. Don't piss me off!

Shelley brought the box in, said I have a secret admirer, and then went upstairs. I opened it and put it on, but she hasn't come back yet. I don't know, not sure what her reaction will be? I think she will "get it". She's upstairs, working. Just like Corey could be here helping me and still get his work done. They say a lot of people will never go back to the office, they kinda like the flex hours and being able to do their job in their pajamas. So, I guess this is a teaser, waiting to see her reaction.

But, she is taking Tillie for a hike in the hills above Padua over in Claremont. I will make her wear the hat 🧢 just like n case she sees a few Claremont people who are pretty fucking liberal since it’s a college town, I guess? In fact it would be perfect! Good hunting.

Shelley was all decked out in those form fitting shorts and a tank top and a black hat that said across the front, "MY DOG IS SMARTER THAN YOUR PRESIDENT" Tillie looked similarly svelte and wearing her Gentle Leader. This will be her first taste of "wilderness" and I think Shelley will keep her on the leash because Tillie does not know the meaning of the word, HEEL, nor the concept. I can't wait to hear how it went. Meanwhile, I need to find something to eat. Good hunting. El Bee -------------------- EL BEE Knows It All and Done It All. Don't piss me off!

However, the reality is this. Her husband has been with Apple, not a contractor, an actual employee of the Cupertino firm for 30 years and whatever she needs done, he does. This means, she doesn't have to worry about anything. I will ask. Oh! Wait! She knows how to post pictures of her food on facebook, so maybe? They just walked in. Well, she's in the shower now and we have a lunch in 33 minutes with a friend of hers so if by some miracle we can post it, it will be later. Good hunting. El Bee question: can you receive text messages, she sent me a photo to my phone and I can forward it if you want to post it? edit: first, you send me a text. I will email my cell phone number, ok?

I blame facebook for crowding them out of existence. As our Peanut Gallery might be aware, computers run on WiFi and your home modem....as far as I know? Unless you are at Starbucks, and they offer free access to the Internet, although I don't know why the hell you would buy an $8 Latte' just to get free/never mind! Anyway, fucking smartphones, (you may please excuse yourself, ko ko) use something different, it's like in outer space? The stumbling block for me is that the assholes always require an "app" and that is an effective roadblock for folks like me and ko ko. Then some weenie tells us that "they" meaning the government, I think?, is tracking our every interaction, 24/7/365. Except Safford! I'm pretty sure they wouldn't bother rigging Safford for round the clock surveillance? I mean....would you? So, now pay attention! We have two different technologies, personal computers and Macs and all the tech savvy folks do everything on their phone. Land Lines are so "provincial" that we should scorn those that still use them! Maybe, taken out and shot is too good for those Neanderthals? Besides, ko ko once told me to ALWAYS wear my tinfoil hat because the bastards can read our thoughts! Now, admit it; that's some scary shit! And, I don't know who told him, but this is no crackpot stuff, he knows somebody that knows somebody! One of the biggest problems in the world today is the confusion over "Barbecue" whether it's basting your chicken or ribs with a sweet sauce or do they actually mean, Texas Brisket BBQ? No matter how you slice it, somebody's going to be disappointed, and it's about time we straightened it out! Good hunting. El Bee -------------------- EL BEE Knows It All and Done It All.

Simple conversation in the Livingroom. Her Smartphone was laying on the coffee table, unused. Within 24 hours I was getting pop-up ads on my computer for .......... Tundra Boots. And that's with a spam filter set to 'stun' !!!
