Oh, and forgive me if you've mentioned it, but I have a hella time keeping up with the Bitches and the Natters
I TOTALLY know how that goes. We're a chatty bunch!
how's Mr. Toto doing?
He's doing so much better. Thank you for asking. The vet thinks it was just some crazy virus. He's got a check-up in a few weeks, but I really feel like he's doing much better. Of course, through all of this he became a food snob and will only eat the prescription food from the vet. So, it looks like we'll be buying the 'spensive stuff for the time being. Silly boy!

Heh.
I thought biology was the easiest of the sciences, but YBMV. However, you have purple pens, so nothing can really be that bad.
I'm pretty close to slathering the baby in bacon fat and setting him out for the dingoes. He doesn't want to sleep. He doesn't want to eat. He doesn't want to play by himself. He doesn't want to play with me. He apparently only wants to be carried around the house.
Oh, that's wonderful news. Well, give him a pat for me and say "hi" from Eddie. I gotta make myself beautiful now, so I'll talk to you later.
Oh, silly Mal! Give your mommy a break!
Thanks Eddie! He says hi back. Actually, he just tilted his head and wagged his tail, which is a pretty good indication that he says hi back.
I'm giving up and putting in a DVD for Mal. I want him rested for our store trip this afternoon; last time he got really fussy in the store it wasn't pleasant.
There was some humor, though - the cashier was helping me bag my groceries to expedite the process, and said "Tora! Tora! Tora!" That translates literally as "Now! Now! Now!" and in context was something like "Yessir! Right away sir!" to the fussy baby. But of course an American hearing "Tora Tora Tora" thinks something else entirely.
Raq, BWAH! I hope he gets some rest for you.
Question for the hivemind. When New Not!Emily interviewed and moved in, I told him he would never have to care for the pets, except for maybe checking to make sure Bastet had water if we were gone for a couple of days. But, my Wednesday schedule has turned out to be nuts. I'll be gone for over 12 hours, and that's just too long for Toto to go. Unfortunately, Emily won't be getting home till after me, so having her walk him is not an option.
Do you think he would be upset if I asked him to walk Toto on Wednesday afternoons? I'd offer to pay him $10, so it's not like I'd be totally taking advantage of him. My other option is to have someone come in and walk Toto, but I think I would prefer this. What do you think?

Man, oh, man, I have been there. Not a place I like to visit. There was a time when I couldn't go in anywhere if I couldn't get in and our in 15 minutes or less. He's a little more susceptable to bribes reason now. I save a small container of goldfish crackers for the check out line. When the time comes to unload the cart, I give that to him and he sits there happily eating them until I can get out of the store.
Today is my level 2 ultrasound. I'll know whether the next buffista baby is a boy or a girl by this afternoon.
Oooooo....yay, Cashmere! How exciting!
