Much ~ma heading to Laura, her MIL, and her entire family.
You guys had a riot? On account of me? A real riot?

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

What is even happening?
Laura, all good thoughts and hopes continuing your way. I'm so sorry you all are going through this.

TCG and I are headed out in a little bit to look at an apartment and meet with a real estate person that handles apartments. Wish us luck.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I should not create riddles on Saturday mornings.
Really? No. Also, you might wanna cut back on doing voices when I'm too tired to tell a zombie from a hypnotist.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
So glad your MIL is doing better and her oxygen level is headed in the right direction, Laura.
ION, babyspam!

Sean, ask the vet if the pill can be crushed and mixed with something. My cat loves yogurt, so he'll take any pill as long as I can crush it up and mix it with a spoonful of yogurt.
I asked yesterday. They said no. I'm really stressing out about this, and my stress levels were already through the roof this week, between S's knee injury, the cat's illness, and one other huge piece of really frigging bad news that has hit me very hard.
Alternatively, there are compounding pharmacies that will make chewable chicken-flavored things that have the same medication in them as the pill.
I'll ask later today at the vet, when I go to get her to give the pill to the cat. She said she'd do this one more time, and now I don't know what I'm going to do. We have not been successful in giving the poor guy his medicine, and he's just getting more and more violent when I put my hand on his head to even try and start the process.
Is your cat smart enough to get it, if you sat and explained that you need him to take the pill so he can get better (putting lots of emotion into it, because while they don't always get the English, they do pick up on how we feel)?
I've been trying. Just about constantly to beg plead, and otherwise generally explain to him that he needs to take this pill to get better. It doesn't seem to be getting through.
