Pet of the Week-Adira
Hello!  I am a sweet, meek and mild-mannered cat. I am more of an introvert, so I take a little longer to get use to new friends, but I have a very gentle soul.  I am at the Cape Ann Animal Aid (CapeAnnAnimalAid.com), located at the Christopher Cutler Rich Animal Shelter, Four Paws Lane, Gloucester.
I arrived here after being found as a stray and never claimed. I am looking forward to having a forever home. I love soft napping spots, sunny windows and I love bird watching.  I have a pretty brown-and-black coat. I am looking forward to having a  nice lap sleep in and someone to love me.
Oh! I almost forgot to tell you – my name is Adira! Please stop by and visit me soon.

You’re OK Get Up. You’re OK. You’re OK. Get Up. It Just Scared You Honey…
Did you hear the thunk? I mean straight up couldn’t lay a more solid forehead plant on that bar.
And then the mother chuckles a little before she tries to convince the kid that he didn’t just get completely annihilated.
Total compassion out of the mom right there. She ain’t raising no softie!
Define Getting Bundled: see video
Is this your move?
Like when your kid gets destroyed on the playground do you give them the old “Shake it off” routine?
I feel like there are two completely different camps on this. Mothers that would be crying harder than the child and coddling them and then other moms that will pick the kid up, give em a boot in the ass and tell them to run up that slide til they get it right.

Downton Abbey: That’s All Folks (Until Next Year…)
- I grimace because I care…
Season 4 of Downton Abbey is over, and as much as I love to complain about its soap opera excesses, I’m gonna miss now it’s gone. I’m already looking forward to next winter, when the millions of us who watch this show can once again spend January and February with the Crawley family and their servants. In Season 5, will viewers get to see Mary’s decision about which one of her suitors to marry? For my money, I think it will be the Pigman. Mary will steal him away from Edith and together, Mary (Lady Pigman to you!) and her man will raise pigs and make so much money for Downton Abbey by selling bacon rashers that the old home place will never be in financial trouble again.
For my full rant, feel free to head over to my blog by clicking the link…

New England Boat Show: Dazed and Confused
Wow, what an unbelievable amount of boat stuff all in one place. If you put all these boats in the water the ocean level would rise at least a few inches.
Cape Ann Marina has just way too much cool stuff going on. If you have not had breakfast at the Mile Marker Restaurant lately, order one of the Eggs Benedict and don’t forget the home fries. (Menu here.) These are not your ordinary home fries. They do some kind of magical double cooking of them so they are soft on the inside and crunchy but not greasy on the outside. I could just eat them alone for breakfast but their Benedict sauce has just the right amount of creamy goodness, and their crab cakes … oh wait, they also have a pretty nice marina, swimming pool (buy a punch card!), and they’ll fix your engine. You have to click through their entire web page and dream about summer.
Anyway, why did I label this post New England Boat Show: Dazed and Confused? Find out by clicking more below:

What Time Is It, Mr. Fox? Old Sloop Coffee House ~ Saturday, March 8, 2014 Time7:30pm
What Time Is It, Mr. Fox? routinely sells out Old Sloop Coffeehouse. Get your tickets early!
What Time Is It, Mr. Fox? is like an alchemical experiment. The band fuses and integrates different genres, theories and ideas, creating new recipes to unlock hearts and unify a room. In one set the ensemble can travel from an acoustic coffeehouse to New Orleans soul, from gothic blues to a Middle Eastern desert or the woods of medieval France. Named after a Victorian children’s game, and anchored by the “haunting, chameleon-like voice” (Metronome) of singer-songwriter front-man, Brian King, the band spins new fairy tales and steeps them in folk noir and neo-cabaret. Many songs are bustling with memorable characters like a boy who turns into a cartoon or a woman who rescues herself from a tower, while others, pure and vulnerable, “deftly explore themes of love, sexuality and identity.” (Bay Windows)
Born in Gloucester, Brian King grew up with a love of the mystical. Enamored with The Wizard of Oz, King couldn’t decide who we wanted to be more, Dorothy or the Wicked Witch. Throughout his teen years Brian fell in love with the music of Siouxsie & the Banshees, Kate Bush, and later Leonard Cohen, Laura Nyro and Joni Mitchell. His diary was documented in piles of cassettes containing hours of original music recorded on a Tascam 4-track.
Here is a video of What Time Is It Mr. Fox? performing Cyndi Lauper’s song She Bop at the Cloud Club in Boston.
