Tuesday, May 2nd, 2023 09:38 pmWent out for Thai food, ignoring the weather probs, so of course it ws raining when I left. Luckily I was near Weiner's, my hardware store of choice since 1983, so picked up a rain poncho from there and forged on. Coming up my street there was a grey cat coming down, which is unusual. People either don't own cats anymore or they don't let them out: this has turned into dog city. Am constantly passing dog walkers as I rollator around, which requires noting which side the dog is walking on and moving to the other side, and half the time the walker will step off the curb anyway. Which is not social distancing, since no one does now, but a conviction that the sidewalk is not wide enough for the both of us. It is, of course, but oh well.
In the event the cat was a raccoon, who confronted me in front of SND's yard, where I asked him what the hell he was doing out in the daytime and he slunk shame-facedly in amongst the hostas. Raccoons have harems scattered here and there and he must have been on his way to visit one of them: but he still shouldn't be out in mid-afternoon.
