   A better nights sleep and rolled out of bed a little earlier that /usual and was well into my day by 04:00..about 07:00 was hungry and had 1st meal while playing..and by just 09:00 had most of my routine play done so decided to take a walk to Price Chopper ..original just some shallots..a wedge of Amish blue cheese..a box of Star Crunch & a bottle of pepperoncini..but I ended up with a stick of pepperoni..2 cans of anchovies & a package of breaded shrimp..as well..in my defense some of the items were on special..I had spent more than I had intended but not more than I could afford..I tend to be a bis of a "pack-rat" and then at T J Maxx a bottle of Laotian hot sauce..had it on my mid-day sandwich..has a unique but very nice taste..along with  the usual ripple chips and diet Coke..the tuna salad I mentioned I'd probably make last night also made an appearance..finished up the gaming and took a walk around the "loop"..now by this time of the year we in the Northcountry are usual up to our necks as it were with Canada Geese and Seagulls(aka:flying rats)..I've only seen 3 geese & 2 or 3 Seagulls..??...../....got thinking today about my college days..I had a housemate with two parrots..one was in molt..so I kept the other in my room for several days..and learned a valuable lesson..never buy a "used" parrot..I was attending a very  conservation bible college..I'd cover his cage at night and be greeted in the morning with "Get Padro the (blank) outta here"..once I let him out.."Padro wants a (blanking) cracker"..after classes and soccer practice when I returned to my room I was greeted with "Where the (blank) have you been"...once I enter the room and he was on the back of my desk chair..an open book on the table and moving his head back & forth as if reading and muttering repeatedly...(blank-a-t-blank)..said I "I don't think that's  what it says"..& got "where the (blank) have you been..Padro wants a (blanking) cracker)..Thankfully his stay with me was a short one..../....still just a couple of things to attend to before I take my rest..ergo.."nite all"....[18:32 UTC-4]..../....
