Tonight I went to the store and the local burger joint to grab a bite...

I put ANOTHER lock on the gate, this one you can take apart and put your own combo on the dials.

They have a cogged dial so I can open it by feel.

I line up all the teeth and VOILA!

I am in.

I got the gate open fine and dandy....I had my drink in my hand a bag in the other and my headphones on and was trying to close and lock the gate.

I tried to dial the combo in to lock the lock and just could not do it.

I walked over to the porch, put my food down and went back out to try again. Of course, the dial was off and that was the reason I could not close it correctly.

I was able to get the lock closed and turned to pick up my food and go indoors.

I reached for the bag and a GIANT ORANGE BALL jumped out from behind a box that I had set the food next to..

Toonces, the crazy cat, had run to the front porch and zoomed in on the food-I had only left it there for not more than two minutes and the little sucker was on it!

I jumped and probably lost about 2.5 years off my life.


At this rate?

I'll OWE time to the Grim Reaper........I think I am about 27 years behind on my longevity...
