This is so true. Better a polite no than a maybe, or no answer. No allows you to move on. I’ve always respected girls who just come out and say it. Politely that is. I’ve tried to do the same.
Tommy’s smile in that last panel is priceless. That image belongs on merchandise! Sticker, journal cover, mug, fridge magnet. I guess it’s too much to hope for another set of pins.
If you haven’t already seen the commercial, ask the google to show you the video entitled The Woodland’s Most Wanted – Roasting Marshmallows l. I’m not trying to sell the product, but I love the commercial. Watching the CGI critters abscond with the marshmallows made me smile and keep smiling every time I thought about it.
Tommy has always been the BEST friend to Sophie – wreslemania, artwork, moving, under the bureau, etc. It might be a shame to ruin a good friendship with romance. But how could you not love Tommy?
There are a lot of True Romantics in the orb, lol! But Tommy’s interests really do not align with Sophie’s. She is an indoor cat; he loves the outdoors. She is an introvert; Tommy is an extrovert. Sophie loves reading; Tommy loves meeting and interviewing other creatures. And there is the fact that they are both, ahem, neutered. Still, all you Romantics do you, and we will see where Georgia takes this!
My newest kitty Birdie who is still barely more than a kitten was face to face with a young raccoon through the French door this morning! I know our yard family of raccoons pretty well and this was a young stranger, presumably one of last year’s batch (they kick out the boys once they are weaned). Had clearly been living rough with one raggedy ear. Oh the sniffing, you can’t smell much through glass but both were surely trying!
Sorry truth is, regardless of health, at around age 70 you are living on borrowed time. You might be laughing and singing “The Pizza Song” one minute then the next.. curtains. No one of any age is guaranteed one more breath but this is ridiculous.

Me thinks Tommy has a soft place in his heart for Sophie…but he’s too shy to express how he feels. Hmmm, a small romance in the future maybe?

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile
At the Artisans’ Studio
Maat-Tilda: I’m really pleased at how the Holy Grill turned out.
Adobe Style: And I’ve heard Thomios is preparing crackers and marshmallows. Care to guess what we’re having for dessert?
Tillie: I can’t wait to roast marshmallows for s’mores.
Sophititi: I wonder what chocolate Thomios has prepared.
Tillie: I’d like a fine dark chocolate. Not too sweet.
Soph: And cat-friendly, of course.
Adobe: So, what is our next project?
Tillie: The interactive tapestry we made for the Literary Festival went over well. Let’s think of a theme for our next one.
Adobe: How about Just Because?
Soph: Excellent idea. Let’s put our heads together and work on a design.
Adobe: Where is Arachna, by the way? We need her web spinning skills.
Tillie: The locusts had a plague scheduled for this week. She and her spider friends are harvesting them to make Nommy Nom Spider Treats.
Soph: Made from sustainable locust plagues!

When you’re down and troubled
And you need some lovin’ care
And nothin’, nothin’ is goin’ right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night
You just call out my name
And you know, wherever I am
I’ll come runnin’
To see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I’ll be there
You’ve got a friend
If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you’ll hear me knockin’ at your door
You just call out my name
And you know, wherever I am
I’ll come runnin’, runnin’, yeah, yeah
To see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I’ll be there, yes, I will
Now, ain’t it good to know that you’ve got a friend
When ferrets can be so cold?
They’ll hurt you, yes, and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
Oh, but don’t you let them
You just call out my name
And you know, wherever I am
I’ll come runnin’, runnin’, yeah, yeah
To see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I’ll be there, yes, I will
You’ve got a friend
You’ve got a friend
Ain’t it good to know you’ve got a friend
Ain’t it good to know, ain’t it good to know
Ain’t it good to know
You’ve got a friend
Oh, yeah, now, you’ve got a friend
Yeah baby, you’ve got a friend
Oh, yeah, you’ve got a friend

There are a lot of True Romantics in the orb, lol! But Tommy’s interests really do not align with Sophie’s. She is an indoor cat; he loves the outdoors. She is an introvert; Tommy is an extrovert. Sophie loves reading; Tommy loves meeting and interviewing other creatures. And there is the fact that they are both, ahem, neutered. Still, all you Romantics do you, and we will see where Georgia takes this!

My newest kitty Birdie who is still barely more than a kitten was face to face with a young raccoon through the French door this morning! I know our yard family of raccoons pretty well and this was a young stranger, presumably one of last year’s batch (they kick out the boys once they are weaned). Had clearly been living rough with one raggedy ear. Oh the sniffing, you can’t smell much through glass but both were surely trying!
