::taps mic::

The Morning Monty accepts this sunny tribute.

goooood morning it is bright but cool enough that for the first time in ages… this little lady could see her breath, so yes: Lucy Loved That Walk

I just finished listening to this and loved it. Great haunted house story with a good dose of personally relatable, complicated big sister grief, and realistic & likeable protagonist. I definitely need to buy a copy. (I think it’s a fair tag to give @cheriepriest.com two thumbs up here lol)

Under the moonlight, you see a sight that almost stops your heart

What movie do you consider perfect? (yes I am serious, don't @-me)

The Morning Monty does NOT APPROVE of gloomy Sundays.

goooood morning it is the first really gross/cool/wet/breezy day of fall, which did not slow down this little lady at all because yes: Lucy Loved That Walk

anyway good night

Despite ::gestures at the flaming world:: - a lazy #Caturday with a feline-weighted blanket is good for the soul. Two souls, actually.

Good morning and welcome: to another fine #Caturday

anyway good night

goddammit, Target

Hanging out on the deck with my best girl, but I didn’t bring any snacks.

The Morning Monty toasts his tummy.

goooood morning it is cool and bright and we ran into some very sweet old people who gave her many pettings, so yes: Lucy Loved That Walk

anyway good night

The person being quoted is shitty but he is not wrong; I did not work in tv for 45 years, but I’ve worked news/mag advertising and/or digital marketing for 25 or so - and if you want to grab a media company’s attention by the short hairs, yes: bitch to their advertisers, not their inboxes.

Big brass balls. If there’s some “crisis of masculinity” in America, it boils down to man-children who lack the cojones of this polite, soft-spoken, badass accountant and therefore fail to understand that “showing up for our neighbors” is what being a man means if it means anything.

Today’s bargain joy from the tragedy rack at my local nursery: a dwarf cypress that had Seen Some Shit, and therefore was on sale for a considerable discount. I forgot to take a “before pic, sorry - but here it is without its crushed half + enough dead foliage to stuff a pillow.

💕💖💕

The Morning Monty is back on his bullshit.

goooood morning it is cool and bright and we took a real long jaunt around the neighborhood so yup: Lucy Loved That Walk

anyway good night

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

YES

BREAKING NEWS: PARTIAL SNUGGLE

Thread, up and down.

And all The Lord’s people said “Amen”

The Morning Monty enjoys it while he can get it.

goooood morning it is cool and bright and there were SO MANY kids out there who wanted to pet her so yes, of course: Lucy Loved That Walk

anyway good night or else he’ll tell you what he sees up there on the ceiling

BLUESKY - if it matters to you, I have personally petted this cat and I adore his person. She could use a hand right now 👇👇👇

Today’s happy yard friend: a big ol’ bumblebee kicking around in the coreopsis.

I didn't know who this person was 10 minutes ago but i love her

I told him he was gonna sleep through the last hot day of the year (and its sunbeams) and he said to mind my own business.

For real tho, streamers and channels and producers and so forth:

With one or two exceptions (notably WILD CARDS), I don’t enjoy working in anyone else’s IP - but I do think that I was *born* to write a fake paranormal documentary series. Not reality tv like Ghost Hunters; think Mountain Monsters, The Blackwell Ghost, or the Roanoke season of AHS.

The Morning Monty soaks up the late summer rays.

my favorite robert redford story is that mike nichols considered him for dustin hoffman's part in THE GRADUATE. during their conversation nichols asked redford something like, "have you ever struck out with a girl?" and redford's response was basically, "i don't understand the question"

Some mornings are easier than others, and this was a tough one - but even tho I didn’t let her have ANY of the UNCOOKED BACON lying NAKED and SLIMY in the middle of a GODDAMN CUL-DE-SAC… Lucy Loved That Walk

anyway good night

Got a warm welcome at the salon, as usual 😅

The Morning Monty says “do not disturb this sunbeam.”

goooood morning it is cool and bright and we had a lovely jaunt around the neighborhood so of course, once again: Lucy Loved That Walk

anyway good night

The Morning Monty disapproves. In general.

goooood morning it is cool, overcast, and very windy - that, plus a few tiny bites of my pop tart, meant that as usual: Lucy Loved That Walk

anyway good night
