Moon over lake
We managed a lovely evening walk, lit by a nearly full moon. The cat's been behaving oddly, maybe due to the lunar phase, but more likely it's owing to the altercation he was involved in with a cat from a street over. He'll be confronted, and can't seem to resist chasing the interloper off his patch; then he huffs and gimps like some old farmer who's just run off a watermelon-stealing varmint. He's 58 in "cat years"; he's getting into that ornery bachelor stage.

I'm getting into that ornery married geezer stage. As we were driving west toward the office early this morning, I pointed out the moon, low in the western sky, to my wife, and I called it a "breakfast moon." She thought I was serious and said she had never heard that term before. And then she was pissed at me for revealing her gullibility. I thought it was funny. She didn't. Not even a little bit.
Ruh-oh, Reorge... yeah, late-ish fifties is a turning point for all creatures great and small.
I'm laughing at your description of your geezer cat chasing the kids off his lawn.
58's just not lookin' that old these days.
