How do you manage screen time for yourself?

Quite simply, I can’t and I don’t. And, of every one of the 836 hours per day that I spend on my phone, 736 are spent on WordPress documenting Louis Catorze’s stupid shit. (The other 100 are spent messaging people to complain about his stupid shit, and editing photos of him to try to make him look even passably presentable.)

When I first started Le Blog back in 2014, Catorze wasn’t in the best of health so my posts tended to be about medical issues rather than about his misdeeds. And, of course, being unwell meant that he didn’t have the energy or the inclination to be especially naughty. In fact, there were weeks when I would only post once. ONCE.

Now that he’s much better, of course, it’s non-stop.

We are rolling steadily towards winter, a time when most normal cats – especially ones of, erm, advanced years – start to calm down. However, Catorze is still up to mischief, still taking awful photos, and I still need my daily therapy of messaging friends to vent, which means that my screen time doesn’t look set to change anytime soon. In fact, if anything, it will get worse.

Here he is, utterly unrepentant, having just upended the bin bag (pictured behind him) and covered himself in bin juice, AGAIN:

Bastard cat.

    Gracie came from a hording situation. She was socialized but had no vet care or regular meals. She was very good at dumping garbage cans and taking off with a pork chop bone in a nanosecond. It took weeks before she understood that there will be regular meals. She then learned how to turn her nose up at the food selection. Since Louis is on the caviar of cat foods, I’m not sure what his issue is (except to give you blog stories!).

      Oh, he’s not doing it for any reason other than to annoy me. I can’t imagine Gracie doing that! She seems such a lady!

        She’s a scrapper. Growing up in that kind of environment made her tough and street savvy.

    Actually, you can complain about Louis as many times as you want because all your stories are well written and make my day every time you post one of them.
    But, don’t worry, I sympathise with you.

      Do my stories make your day because they’re happening to me and not you?

      No, only because I like your way of writing.

    From the Doggo perspective, I must say that garbage bin juice makes for a marvelous cologne. I’m a Good Doggo, though, so I don’t get to use it. Rolling in stinky spots in the yard is the best I can manage cologne-wise. Woofs and Wags, Cosmo
