I was house-sitting for Hozier, and I hung out in his reading nook (which you had to climb to get to) and we shared some tea after he got back from the woods. He let me pet his dog, and reassured me about my parents separation.

House sitting four cats.

Three of them have to share the guest room bed while the oldest (and smallest) gets the king sized bed to herself.

An empty house,

a dog that's not mine accessorizing $100.

All I get of Christmas

is a mug of wine

a hot tub, a king sized mattress,

framed photos of a beautiful family I barely know,

and another cup because I'm tipsy.

The first real tree of my life under strange ornaments,

open books- eight of them- not a thing retained

and another because I'm drunk.

Cover your ears,

I'm a motherfucking rock opera prodigy

and close your eyes,

when I got the feeling for strawberries and honey and ice-cream

I only opened the shower curtain and then the fridge.

Yes, matter of fact, go the fuck away,

Don't you have somewhere to be? Its nearly Christmas.

A Confessional by T

House sitting for a couple weeks and this cat desperately wants to be outside. Any time I go near the backyard door he runs to it and yells. I ignored him the first day cuz I wasn’t left any rules about this, and I’m not just gonna let a cat outside without a leash or guard.

I asked his owner if he’s an escape artist - should I be worried he’ll run away when I go outside to water the garden? Maybe lock him in the bathroom before I open an outside door? The answer was no. He loves being outside to roll in the dirt for approximately two minutes then screams to go back inside. He’s scared of the birds and won’t go farther than three feet from the house.

Sure enough, halfway through watering the plants he starts howling at me, looking expectantly at the door. Goes back inside no problem. What a good kitty.

British Columbia Road Trip

We have had an absolutely fantastic time during our 10 week swing through beautiful British Columbia. Through Karen’s organizational skills we ended up doing five house sits in five different locations around southern BC. We ran the gambit of animal personalities from dogs that were deaf, to obsessed with squirrels, to chickens that were just a little too curious at times. To blind Truffle who…

I find it very interesting to house sit cause I'm an incredibly judgemental person but I also hate upsetting/offending people and so when I'm alone in a house I get to just be openly horrified about the state of someone's microwave or the fact that they have absolutely no fruits or vegetables

#fae talks #i also get to clean their house and half the time they dont notice and the other half they appreciate it #house sitting

the fact that shakespeare was a playwright is sometimes so funny to me. just the concept of the "greatest writer of the English language" being a random 450-year-old entertainer, a 16th cent pop cultural sensation (thanks in large part to puns & dirty jokes & verbiage & a long-running appeal to commoners). and his work was made to be watched not read, but in the classroom teachers just hand us his scripts and say "that's literature"

just...imagine it's 2450 A.D. and English Lit students are regularly going into 100k debt writing postdoc theses on The Simpsons screenplays. the original animation hasn't even been preserved, it's literally just scripts and the occasional SDH subtitles.txt. they've been republished more times than the Bible

Penelope hasn’t let me pet her all week but today she finally came over and sat by my leg.

And then Cedric fell asleep in my shoe, so I guess I’ll have to stay here another hour instead of going home.
