Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Oh, Erin. That was lovely.

So I cleaned the cat scratch playground with alcohol and applied fix-y goo to it. Now I took a picture too. [link] . Should I be doing anything else?

Oh, and it looks like an artistic flower much more in the picture. In person it is more flayed flesh and then just one bit that still looks like a blossom. I think that is the one that is going to bruise spectacularly.

Cass, just keep it clean (scrub even if it hurts the first couple of days) and peroxide/neosporin it frequently. If you have the slightest allergies to cats, I'd suggest benadryl tonight, at least. Keep an eye on it. You'll probably have some swelling, just from the trauma, but if it gets noticeably worse, doctor time.

I've had some nasty wounds from my clawed ones, and I've never had issues, but I've seen people react very badly. And YOWCH, that's a stingy place to get scratched. I'm betting it's going to be pretty uncomfy for a bit.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

RIGHT ON JESSE!!!!!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Dammit, y'all wait until I'm not around to malign the poor (yet pretty) hairless kitties....

Also, a few years back slashdot had a poll on the pronounciation of daemon. The results were almost exactly split between 'dee-mon' and 'day-mon.'

In conclusion, hairless cats rule.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Cool. How did G's day go?

Pretty well. Most it was HR training and such. He has learned that his dress shoes are not good walking shoes.(His job is in DC proper, a few blocks from a Metro stop so he's taking the Metro to and from)

It is hella uncomfy. And I just took some Benedryl (Thanks, sara! I *knew* I was forgetting something important when I cleaned it up initially) and re-swabbed and ointmented the area. If it it gets weird, I will head straight to a doctor as actual cat scratch fever is not amusing at all. Mostly? It is just sore right now but not overly swollen or red given the injury.

And I am not sure how I will manage a bra for a few days.

Yeah, that's the part I was dreading on your behalf.

Alias: I want JG's costumer. Because, it appears she is carrying some totally earned post-baby belly (silhoutte shots and this is just something I watch for-good cuts for certain shapes) and yet, the stuff is accomodating. I'm not post baby, but gots those shape issues.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Yay, Jesse!!!

Erin, that's wonderful!
