Bird feeder, part 2

A while ago, I put together a bird feeder. Let's hang it up!

This feeder has a suction cup. Let's put it on the front door.

I'll put some crackers in it as a treat.

Now it's all set for visitors. I wonder how long it will be before our first visitor?

FIVE MINUTES LATER...

Hey, do you hear something at the door? Yes, it looks like a bird! We have our first visitor to the bird feeder.

Hey, wait a second.. actually, this bird looks beary familiar... could it be?

I went outside to take a closer look. Why, yes! It was.. Miss Feathers!

"OM NOM NOM NOM!" she sounded very hungry.

"Miss Feathers, is that you?" I asked.

"Oh, hello Ajdin!" she chirped. "Excuse me for stuffing my face just now."

"Miss Feathers, it's been so long! Come inside and let's catch up!" I said.

It's been years since Miss Feathers has been on my blog, but she has been around this entire time. (Really need a new secretary).

Mail haul

Today, my secretary decided she would just randomly show up and come to work. She handed me a couple of pieces of old mail she "happened to find lying around." Should I fire her? It's so hard to find good help these days.

The first letter is... a Halloween card! Halloween? Are we seriously that backed up on posting?

It's from Jerry and Ben, and there is also a Starbucks gift card for participating in the Halloween costume contest where I was my alter ego, Dr. FISHKENSTEIN... mwahahahahahahahaha... *ahem* I mean, thank you beary much, Jerry and Ben!

My secretary handed me another envelope. Let me guess, it's a holiday card and probably months behind also!

It's a Christmas card from Sandy! Thank you Sandy! Speaking of Christmas cards, I think my secretary forgot to mail those out also - really? I think I could find someone on Fiverr who would do a better job.

Thank you for the mail, everyone! My goal in 2026 is to find a new secretary!

Happy New Year!

 Hello everyone! Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a great holiday season. I'm telling my secretary to post more often this year. Last year, my secretary only posted TWICE. *sigh*

Anyways, in an attempt to make it up to me, my secretary got me a McDonald's Happy meal.

Of course, I am easily bribed with food.

These french fries are the perfect size for me!

But let's get to the good stuff. Let's see the toy...

It says Gary the Snake on the box, from Zootopia 2. I haven't seen that movie...

Hisssssss....

What do you think? Should I request more bribes?
