Random Friday – A Little Bit of Everything

21 Comments/ 55/ 0

Friday is a great day to share randomness, don’t you think?  I have more random in my life than order at this point it seems.

But bear with me and hopefully my randomness will entertain and amuse you.

First up is a medley of googly eyes.  Y’all know how much I love the google eye placement on random things.  I have left a few in various places lately and few that they were too good to not share.  All googly eyes are easy to remove if they need to be.   No one or object has been hurt in the leaving of googly eyes.

Cats are weird.  If there has ever been any doubt in your mind let me set it aside.  While our cats have a deluxe circulating water fountain to drink from they wait in the bathtub for me to turn the water on. Apparently it is grade A water.  When we lived in Mason City they always ran to the bathroom when they heard the shower turn on.  Weird.

The city of Beaufort is a favorite place and we spent a little time there last week.  I spotted these two manhole covers and thought it was brilliant.

Chris wanted a few deviled eggs for Thanksgiving and I obliged but didn’t have one of those special deviled egg trays at the place we were renting.  I got creative and inserted an upside down glass on the plate and my deviled eggs magically stayed beautiful with no plastic wrap sticking to them. I thought it was a pretty smart idea.

I finished 7 books while we were at the beach but I also wasted way too much time watching episodes of this show. Ridiculous.

 

Finally I loved these two guys from Miami who found a couple of great books at the book store and had pulled up a bench in the sunshine to read while their significant others shopped.  One was all about deer and the other I couldn’t’ figure out what the heck it was but they were lovely men and it made my day to see them thoroughly enjoying their book store finds.

So tell me – what random thing can you share with me today?  I would love to hear all about it so leave me a comment and Comment for a Cause.  

Come back tomorrow for the results of November Comments for a Cause and the reveal of December Comments for a Cause.

    What a fun set of randoms! Those googly eyes crack me up every time. And I agree, cats are weird. Every cat we’ve owned did the same as yours. One of our kitties from the past used to lie in the bathroom sink waiting for me to turn on the faucet.

      They love the water when it is not the water in their dish I guess!

    Yup, cats are weird and we’ve had our fair share of them. One of our cats could be sleeping on the third floor and know when I took the block of cheese out of the fridge. She loved cheese and would be by my side in an instant. Now how did she know it was cheese I took out of the fridge?? Dot can be weird too. She went out for a walk in the rain with Paul and was not happy about getting her head wet. When she came in she ran to the chair with a towel on it and rubbed her head dry. It was so funny to watch.

      Your cat and cheese story is hysterical! And I can just imagine Dot drying her poor wet head on the towel. Poor baby. What was Paul thinking to take her out in the rain?

    Sorry, no “randomness” here just the ‘normal’ pre-Christmas ordered(ha!) chaos caused by all the wonderful ideas that pop into my head ONLY at this time of year (why not July?) when there is absolutely no chance of accomplishing even a minuscule number of them before they would be needed! …..sigh…..again..why do these flashes of brilliance not come in July????

      You need to order your flashes of brilliance to arrive earlier in the year and not throw you into a tailspin in December!

        Good suggestion but starting the carols and looking out at the “white stuff” is a huge part of “THE” motivation!! LOL!

    Two guys from Miami is one of your best shots to date. I absolutely love this random scene of contentment.

      I did love it. I had a nice little conversation with them and thought to just snap a quick shot afterwards from across the street. Didn’t take time to frame it very well or set the scene but it turned out pretty well despite that.

    Randomly poleaxed by the misogyny of banning a woman from Twitter for life because she reported the undisputed facts about a cross-dressing pedophile…that’s not the right note for this blog. I liked the cat picture.

    All the randoms were great. Kitties are so much fun you never know what they will due to make you smile. What a great ideal for your devil egg dish. Love the men reading sitting on the bench looking so content.

    Your cats are funny – I think you helped me find Holly that one time. I just ran the bathtub and out she came running. Something random I can tell you today. . . I had the best coconut curry for lunch. It made me so happy!

    Our cats are mostly outdoor cats but one of the two that come in the house makes a beeline for the bathroom every time he hears the stool flush! He’s never jumped up on the bathroom vanity or ventured in the shower and we’d just as soon keep it that way.

      That is so funny! I wonder why that brings him in! Once again, cats are weird, right? Thanks so much for stopping by!
