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.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Thanks for the kitty-thoughts. His appetite seems healthy, and he even took his first night's pill without too much fuss. He does seem to be drinking more water than usual, but that'll only flush things out, so I'm cautiously optimistic.

Yay for Teddy, Fred Pete! He needs to talk to Sean's cat about being mellow for pills.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Gronk. Double gronk, even. We had a massive thunderstorm here last night. With lightning. One strike was so hard and so close the condo shook like a rat in a terrier's mouth. If I hadn't have known better it felt almost like an earthquake. I think I got about four hours sleep. Did I mention the gronk?
I was watching those storms on radar go North of us. But I think we're about to get some thunderstorms in the next few minutes (Evanston, anyway).

It must have been a heck of a front, tommy. It started around 8-9pm and didn't stop until well after 3am. I know because I looked at the clock wondering when I'd be able to get some sleep. At least if you get it in the day, it's not going to cause you too many problems!

Yeah, on radar it was this solid East-West band of storm that was going straight East, so it never got closer to us. Now it looks like this narrow band is gonna get us in a few minutes, with a much wider band following in an hour or so: [link]

He usually isn't like that. There's usually a fair amount of hissing, as well as claw-based threats.
I think we caught him by surprise.

Glad your cat is doing relatively well, Fred Pete, and the pills fix him up right quick and he continues to be mellow about taking them!

Unfortunately, I don't think there's any way to justify buying a Miata, what with the baby. Is there?
You probably can't anyway. In many jurisdictions, if the kid still needs to ride in a baby seat, you can't have them in a convertible.
Yeah, The Man's keepin' you down.

-t, did you make the recipe Ginger linked, with the beaten egg whites?
I did, and they were delicious! I didn't beat the egg yolks before adding them to the whites, because I forgot, and I didn't so much fold in the matzoh meal as whisk it in, because that way I didn't have to change utensils, and they were still pretty darn perfect. So I think I have my matzoh ball recipe. If it's similarly successful with just the whites I will be able to impress my MiL no end next time I visit her. Thanks, Ginger!

BWAHAHAHHA. I'm sorry, Sparky, but I can just picture it, and it's a funny picture when I'm outside of it . . .
I feel pretty good considering I split a bottle and a half of wine with my husband last night. Maybe that pouring out the anger so there is only joy left in the wine thing works.
Glad to hear that Teddy is doing so well! Having an appetite sounds like very good news - that was always scary with my family's elderly cats when they wouldn't eat.
