i am thinking of names i would give to companies if i owned them.
i think it would be good to call one of them "wait a minute".

The operators would say to ringing phones :"hello wait a minute".
i would also consider names like "no can do" or "buckleys".

seriously, i would definitely ring a company called "no can do" to find out what they could not do (because it is an interestingly self deprecating name and therefore uncommon as a name of a bussines) , and i may be surprised that the company name is not indicative of it's capacity to get things done.
maybe the name should be "know. Can do".


just a random thought anyway.

Just do it (not telling you to, of course) but you feel way better when it's done. (bet ya). Think.... take rat out, get rid of cage filling, clean, fresh filling, fresh water and food, rat in again, done. (5 minutes tops and that cloud's away)

@d0ds0t.... Yay, new born puppies. Shame one didn't make it but don't feel sad about it. Focus on the healthy puppies, they fill your hart with warmth the coming months/years. Lucky you.

(and this coming from a Dutch dude feeling -4 at present)

(but hey.... I'll live)

Oh, no, it takes me much longer than that, even when it's that simple.
Which it rarely is, and isn't this time.
More like:
Get giant box off of my stack of boxes, take out the styrofoam junk, clear a spot on the floor, put box down. Catch rats (there are two of them, not just one), take em out, put them in the box. Take out big chunks of messes they leave (think, TP rolls and half eaten food blocks). Struggle out the.... what-do-you-call-it.... well, it's a bird-cage, so theres this bit you pull out. Then struggle out the tray, dump it. Get out some cleaner, scrub the cage and such. (trust me, it needs it.). Let it dry a bit. Re assemble cage. Fill cage with clean bedding. Put rats back in.
Go downstairs.
Struggle carrying up the vacuum cleaner.
Vacuum floor.
Except! first, I have to clean up my floor before I can vacuum, because it's a pretty bad mess. (cans, cans, everywhere. And other such stuff.). Then vacuum. Then bring the darn thing back downstairs.
Then bring the garbage outside.


Also note, that while cleaning the cage, I have to stop several times and yell at the rats to not fight.



....
And I'm going to go do this in maybe a half an hour. Or less.

...
I want to weep. Haaaaa.


....
And. It'll start stinking again the next day anyways.

I'm going to see an old friend of mine soon. I haven't seen him in 8 years. I am so curious to know what he's like now. Will he be hot?

Yay, the rat cage is cleaned. Cheers.

Now I have to clean up my messy workshop/attic. (I say this to myself for I've procrastinating that for over a week now)
