IverysadNall about me, I seem to have lost my gardening muscles. I only used the hedge clippers for 20 minutes and my arms are tired. I am going to try fro 20 with the hand clippers in a few

That's enough, Empress. Eat and veg now. You need to recharge ... basically everything.

And, cause I want to, ((Aims))

Well CRAPSTEAKS.

Ever since we got home, our cat has been going to the bathroom non-stop. Like every five to ten minutes.

I'm starting to think we should take him to the vet, but I'm worried he won't be able to hold it long enough to get to the vet. And we haven't picked one out yet.

S thinks he may just have gone more neurotic than usual, because we left him alone for two and a half days. He's very codependant, and I think she may be right, but he seriously needs to stop going in his litter box every fifteen minutes, as it's making a HUGE EFFING MESS.

At least he's using the box, Sean.

Not all of us are raging, stupid assholes.

So true. Some of my best friends are skinny.

snerk (Sorry if there was any hint of tarring y'all with the same brush.) The brilliant thing about the Buffistas is the appreciation, enjoyment and love of the beauty of the many different kinds of bodies here, and the even more stellar ability of the whole community to approve of all the persons in it regardless of the states of their bodies.

I want a bag of potato chips

Now I want chips with sea salt and pepper.

Aimee, it's wonderful to see you posting. {{}}

WindSparrow, you could have helped that woman by telling her about a sure-fire method for her to get rid of inches her butt -- remove her head from her ass.

There is a conspiracy here at work. I think they had a meeting to which I was not invited and decided that today was the day they would no longer treat me like the new person and be nice. Suddenly, I'm buried in work.

Sean, I hate to say this, but pick a vet at random if need be and get that cat there, today.

The frequent urination (which sometimes appears more like constipation) is a big red flag symptom. Most likely it is just an infection, with inflamation and possibly some crystals forming up in the urinary tract, but if there is a blockage, the cat may have only a matter of hours.

When you get back from the vet, and Daniel is around, you can ask him how paranoid I get about how often Harvey goes into the litterbox, and whether or not I can hear a nice healthy stream of pee when he is in there.

I had an awful headache last night that had me hiding in bed trying to avoid light and sound. It feels like it's coming back. I have no idea how the migraine suffers function on a daily basis.

Aimee's home! And hopefully vegging out.

I do NOT have the walking pneumonia or consumption, but the dr wasn't quite sure what it was other than "one of those things going around right now." She gave me an anti-b scrip, which I'm not too wild about but it's been TWO AND A HALF WEEKS so there's something hanging in there. Tom had something similar that dogged him right through the month of January (which I forgot until he told me that he had the same anti-biotics to treat it.)

Anyway, thank you for all the advice and chest listening. I was sure to tell the dr. about my phlegm color and the walking pneumonia theory.

Glad you went to the Dr., Nora. I hope you feel better soon. Even if means taking the nasty anti-bs.

Sean, take the kitty in to a vet. It sucks but the alternatives suck more.

In cat news, Kittenish's last round of tests came back with her thyroid perfect so her meds are totally stable now. Still has a heart murmur but until I notice anything, she's not going to get a cardiologist as well.

Got an email from my dad that my uncle (with the same birthday as meeeeeeeeeee) wants to join us at the races in June. So I am going to lose my awesome tickets so I can get three together. But still, uncle (who also used to race so he Gets It)! And one I never get to see.

But, a moment of silence for my awesomesauce tickets. I will miss you...
