Believe we are closer to the reported Weapons of Mass Damnation. Found reputed broom closets but no brooms. Intercepted report that mandrakes have been imported from Niger. Will report again as soon as I have news from our operatives besieging the caves in Rhode Island.

Hivemind question: What should I expect from muscle relaxers? I just took a 500 mg tablet of the generic form of "Robaxin" and am wondering what comes next.
Sleep. Sleep comes next, if I take Robaxin. Mmmm, sleeeeeep.
I am jealous of Jilli. For a brand-new reason now.
Andi, I just checked kittenish's ears and there is a fine fur on the backs. No idea why Harvey's ears aren't. But the bat wing thing is interesting if not something I understand.
Apparantly what follows for me is that my muscles relax just enough to hurt like hell. Fucking ow.
Cass, is it possible the cat is rubbing its head on something inanimate? If it regular rubs somewhere, kinda obsessively, I suppose that could rub some fur off. (note that I own no pets and no nuzzing about nuzzing)
Sorry to hear that Kristin. Maybe Vicodin would be an improvement. I'm not fond of it since what it does is make you not care about being in pain rather than actually getting rid of the pain. But if the muscle relaxants aren't working? Ice isn't fun to nuzzle next to, but it does take care of inflammation and numbs the pain.
Ouch, Kristin. Sorry to hear you didn't get the sleepies.
My head is pounding. Still. Drugs are being annoyingly ineffectual, even the ones that generally work.

Also my laptop's screen hinges just perished. Well the left one. The right one committed suicide a while back. I have a very horizontal computer at the moment.
I swear this thing is going to be up on blocks in the front yard soon. And I will be sitting on the lawn, possibly with a 40, typing away.

Dunno. This time it is Andi's cat we are psychoanalyzing. Or turning into a bat. It isn't clear just yet.
My cats just want to climb on the computer. Which might be for possible future electrolysis, I just don't know.

Heh.
Kristin, is there a 24-hr pharmacy you can call to ask if it would be a bad thing to take ibuprofen with the muscle relaxer? I know that vicodan is not quite the same thing, but I had to take ibuprofen with it in order to get real relief with the abcessed wisdom tooth.

Spidra, that's a very reasonable question, especially since you can't see him or precisely where the hair loss is. My answer is that I have not seen him rubbing anything unusual, and also the pattern of hairloss is not in a spot that cats rub on a lot of stuff. The tips of his ears, say, the upper 60% of the triange-shape, are the bits missing the hair. If he were rubbing a lot, it would be more of the base, I think.
Come to think of it, his coat in general has lost some of the silky lustre it gained when I first started him on the Eukanuba prescription food. I'm still feeding him that, but Daniel says that in the last month or so it has changed color, so maybe they have changed the formula. We compared a label from a can from this summer (label kept near 'puter for research purposes) to one of the new cans, and it reads the same.
