Thanks all. Patches had a pretty good life after she was rescued and came to stay with us, and still managed to, sick, underweight, and moving very slowly, to terrorize the other cats and dog in the house up to the day she died, so what else can any cat want..?
Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

Mostly lurking...
I just called the Bursar's office to find out what is going to happen to my account if I take a leave of absence. Their message says they are closed, and I should call back during normal business hours: Monday-Friday 9-5.
I think someone forgot to switch the phones this morning.

I'm getting the pig!
Sounds like the perfect kitty life, CaBil. RIP, Patches.
vw, great advice here from everyone and it sounds like you're on the right path *for you*. {{{vw}}}
The dinosaur brain knew, but yet I missed the memo.
I wore green yesterday. I guess the dinosaur brain glanced at the wrong calendar by accident.

I had green, but it wasn't anything I wanted to wear considering the weather (19 degrees out there this morning, doesn't Wisconsin realize it's almost spring, yet?)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm sorry to hear about Patches, CaBil, but that sounds like it was a good life once she joined you.
Not wearing green, but haven't actually gotten dressed, yet. My brain is currently trying to leak out my nose.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
If it's green, you're all set!
sorry

Art Crawl!!!
Just a couple hours south of you Sail and we're actually above freezing!
But I'm not wearing green. I don't think I have anything green that is suitable for barely above freezing temps either. (It's 34 degrees here.)

So nobody answered Aimee's question about who crowned her Empress?
I've forgotten, so I'm not entirely sure, but wasn't it me?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Sorry to hear about Patches, CaBil, but I'm glad you got to give her a good life.
{{{{vw}}}}
The only green I own is on, but not visible to the casual observer, ifyouknowwhatImean. Kind of looking forward to tonight, in a sickly fascinated way. Glad I have a box seat to retreat to if need be.

I'm getting the pig!
We have a 9am huddle every work day. Today someone recommended that everyone find me at some point during the day and give me a good pinch. But wait... that's not all. I'm also being auctioned off to the highest bidder later today.
Lemme explain the second bit. We're doing a basketball servitude pool at work. We all had to draw names of teams out of a box and each week the winners have to serve the losers. (One week we'll do a breakfast, one week will be a lunch, etc.) So, with this game, you actually *want* to have a losing team. Which I don't... yet.
I picked Alabama and yesterday they won their game against Marquette. Cheryl pulled Marquette but she's not going to be here next week - sooooo she announced to everyone in the huddle that she's going to auction me off later today.
I may need either bail money or an alibi before the day is over.
