tonight I have to run home, wrangle the 2 cats into their box carriers, get them to the vet, then get them home with a bag of food. I think I need to call a friend for help.

This is why I take mine to the vet one at a time.

Sophia, you could send another email, but it sounds like that student is uninterested in the 20% for initiative.

Saw an e-mail that voiced a concern about looking like "a bunch of armatures." I wonder if anyone pointed this out to the author...I'm certainly not going to.

That made me laugh really hard.

I am teaching myself MS Project. Anyone can help?

I can't help, but I think I need to do that, too. Hmmm. I can help with the vet thing, though. Because what's more fun than procrastination? USEFUL procrastination!

Ooh, msbelle, that reminds me -- my bro and his partner have two cats. Anyone have vet recommendations? I have no idea where exactly they'll be living in NYC, but anything closer than Boston would be of the good.

If I take mine to the vet one at a time, Oz will hiss at both me and Sylvester for a week after Sylvester's visit.

it has to be in your closet, how could you lose a shovel?

You'd be amazed.

Would this help spice up the start of the day for non-morning people?

If you consider destruction, crazed cats, bloodshed and unintelligible cursing "spice."

I can't imagine taking both cats to the vet at the same time without a car. Call a friend.

I've had an odd day today. Called in sick due to the plague, and when I went out to refill a prescription and eat lunch the wait staff happened to seat two of my former co-workers at the table next to me. So, two of the six adults I know well in a city of 600,000+.

Also, got accosted by panhandling junkies on my way out of the pharmacy. Not sure if they were smack or crystal meth addicts, but you don't get that hollow cheek glassy-eyed look from being hooked on phonics. And shouting at me before running up to stand 3 inches from my moving car is not going to get you a handout.

I swear you are suspiciously obsessed with how to help non-morning people.

Only once. Then it would be ded.

Yeah, it would need to come with extra buzzy bits, because they would be smashed against the wall every day.

Clocky, OTOH, might be useful.

Clocky is an alarm clock for people who have trouble getting out of bed. If you hit the snooze button, Clocky will roll off of the nightstand, fall to the floor, and run around the room, searching for a place to hide.

It's because I pity you. Did you follow the link to the bed that gets progressively more uncomfortable?
