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.

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.

Sean, another possibility would be if the vet boards animals for a reasonable fee, perhaps you could leave the cat with them for a couple days while they medicate him and you get a chance to not be stressed about it. Or maybe they can recommend a groomer nearby who might be able to assist with the pilling, as they should be next best thing to a vet tech for handling this.

Damn, damn, damn. I really do wish I lived nearby.

Oh Sean, I'm so glad that they're giving you liquid. I think you'll find that it's so much easier.

{{{Sean}}} I'm sorry about all the stress you have had in your life recently.

We're back from apartment hunting. The first place we looked at was the right price in a good neighborhood but kind of icky inside. The second place was a house for rent, which was way out of our price range, very pretty, but unfortunately not as accessible as I would need it to be. My new favorite term for disability is "leg issues" because that is what the agent said when he was on the phone trying to get someone in his office to look up more places for us. I could tell he couldn't figure out what to say with me standing there. First floor apartments are difficult, but he is hoping he will have more the show us by next week.

Leg issues! Bwah! I find that euphemism especially amusing for some reason.

Mostly lurking...

Leg issues? Oh, my goodness. People! It's called accessibility. It's not that difficult!

People get so self-conscious around any kind of disability. I wonder if the fact that my grandfather was quadriplegic makes me less prone to stress about them. I mean, I've found that my loved ones with disabilities generally just want to be treated like everyone else and don't want people to go to an extreme of overcompensating or pretending it doesn't exist.

He's a sort of nervous, forgetful kind of guy, so he may not have been able to think of the proper word on the spot. It was cute, and I wasn't offended.

Oh I get that. I think that's what I mean--I'm amused more in a "Aww, how cute!" kind of way.

You're like Lindsey...are they evil leg issues?

People get so self-conscious around any kind of disability.

This is probably why I tend to say things (to people I know) like: Hey Gimpy McGimpersteen, how's all that gimping going for you?
