Apparently it was time for our performance review. Nah, just kidding. The boy does look like he has some concerns, though. It's a cat ruse: our performance in caring for the furry boy has been exemplary... he has it made.
I took him outside at 6:30 this morning; it was already 88º. This early morning is the only outdoor time he'll get today - the weather weasels are predicting a high of 117º today. Extreme Heat Warning for today. No shit, Shakespeare. They are suggesting: "Stay hydrated and stay indoors in air conditioning."
I put these up as soon as we go outside:
The umbrellas help keep the patio and pavers in the shade. It helps.
On another topic, I added another bit of photo gear. Well, to be fair, Joan added another bit of photo gear for me. It's a small tripod/remote for my Sony a6700 camera...
This was recommended for Joan on Vine. The Vine "activity" has been way down since the whole tariff situation. There were about 120,000 items on Vine prior to the tariffs; around 40,000 now. Joan asked if this was something I could use... "Absolutely - I had looked at the Sony version a while back." We are more selective these days about getting things on Vine, since there is a tax consequence. This tripod/remote has a value of about half the Sony version... and it works great. The remote that is in the handle pops out, so you can use it to take photos or video without being right on the camera. As in: put the camera on the little tripod just outside the patio door, and you can take the photo from inside while in air conditioned comfort... because it is hotter than the Gates of Hell out there. (96º now at 7:30am)
