THESE JEANS AREN’T GOING ANYWHERE, Y’HEAR?

Okay, friends, listen up.  Mya’s maman sent me this and boy, has my life changed!  Maybe her suitcase will be lighter as she packs for home, too, haha.

I am SURE that you have others you could add to this list, and I would certainly add to mine that it is TOTALLY unnecessary for one’s family to take LONG TRIPS when everyone knows that the grass is NEVER greener on the other side and that, to quote Dorothy, “There’s no place like home.”

So there!

I hope you will heed the uselessness of doing so many things that take you far away from Life’s actual pleasures: bathing, sunning, nibbling, stretching (not the exercise kind, the languorous, languid, lazy kind), cuddling, licking others’ hair or bodies, and of course, SNOOZING.

In fact, I think I have to eliminate that afternoon nap thing.

Likewise that emoji communication suggestion.  There is NO WAY ON EARTH I AM GOING TO STOP COMMUINICATING WITH WORDS!!!

When mama’s stepgrandanthro said to mama, “Oh, I wish I could write like that, it’s so artistic and pretty” and mama asked, “What do you mean? I’m just writing the way my mama taught me to” and grandchild responded, “Yes, but it looks like drawing and the letters are such fun to make and all that” and mama almost fainted.  CURSIVE writing is not taught in schools in many places, and frankly, it’s hard to find a pencil nowadays.

I suppose our future anthros will develop fingers that come to a fine point in order to text faster.  With these:

But I’ll never wash my jeans again…
