Eep, GC, I wouldn't worry too much about rabies, but cat scratches can be nasty for other infections. Maybe clean it with alcohol and wrap it? Keep an eye on it in case infection sets in?
Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Yeah, that's what I figured. I washed my fingers well, put Neosporin on them, and then a couple of bandaids. I've tried calling to the cat before and he usually stays away and meows at you. This time he walked toward me meowing and looking friendly. I gently reached out to pet him and then WHACK - HISS! Dude! You couldn't have hissed first? I'd have removed the hand right quick, I swear!

Yes, the x-post was mighty amusing.
I think Pete just broke the husband-points-o-meter.
I try. Or is it that I'm very trying. Opinion varies.

I think you try to be trying. Oh wait, that's ND. He's an expert.
Good thing you're both really adorable.

GC it is possible to get rabies from a scratch but it's very, very, super, extremely rare because you'd still have to get saliva or brains or other infectious material from the rabid animal into the scratch.
About 10 years ago, I got bitten by a dog. On the same day, the other lawyer in the family was bitten by a dog. I got the dog's info, he didn't. I didn't have to have rabies shots, he did. Nobody got sued.

not your mom's socks.
herewith the reason why there are not more buffistas in Philadelphia:
registering for a driver's license is unbelievably tedious and worthy of sporking.
trying to get tags, ditto.
inspection worse than Maryland (sorry Raq!)
only d seems to have to fortitude so far. Me? I am wavering. waaaavering. and I have 1,000 posts to read.
and some more unpacking.
but it is wonderful to know that you are there. And that Gothic Charm School is getting the props it deserves.
ps. sparky I misses you.

DJ you are totally evil, sharing that shoe link like you did. I want a pair of custom flats and wedges.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Sox! I was just thinking about you! How are you adjusting to the move? How about Iris? What's your new place and new neighborhood like?

move out and draw fire
DJ, insent.
lisah, I haven't forgotten about the shoes for you either, just haven't mailed them.
Hi Sox! Sorry PA is of the suck so far. FWIW, I've found that PA drivers are worse than MD drivers, which is quite an achievement. I suspect after all the registration and DMV hassles, people feel like they need to get some of their own back.

Sox, tell your PA-job-havin'-hubby I said, "Pffft!" on him for finding a job in PA. And phooey, too. How many boxes do you have left? Is the guest room ready?
Driver's licenses and car registrations are always a pain in the arse. And after torturing you with the long lines, endless paperwork and huge fees - they take your picture.
