I highly endorse all meara meetage as she is fabulous!

SFistas! I'ma be in ur city, interviewin' 4 ur jobs!! Or, rather, in Foster City, but whatever. They just sent me an itinerary--get out to SFO around 5:30pm on Thursday the 23rd, and leave at lunchtime on Saturday. (Friday would be an all-day exhausting sort of interview). Not sure how much they'll have planned, or how much I'd be up for, but...I'll let you know!
Damn, I'm gone, but you know that. They'll have to bring you out again. And Foster City is 5 minutes from my work!!

Mostly lurking...
Toto just went to mom and dad's, and now I'm sad.
ETA: ION, I am a complete idiot. I have completely run out of my main sleep/anxiety medication. I cannot believe I did that. Ugh.

Happy Birthday to Katherina B and Ms. Havisham!Oh, yes, Birthday Happies to you both!
Yay, Emily!
Windsparrow, I'm in agreement with you re: cat food.Thanks, Zenkitty. I just hate this feeling that the people whose expertese I should be able to count on in these circs, have gained their nutrition education via vet school classes sponsored either by Hill's or by Iams - so they are taught to think this is good stuff, but rarely stop to think those lovely sponsored classes have an agenda other than the highest scientific nutritional knowledge. Can't blame them, yet... I just have a hard time thinking that the big pet food companies have our pets' best interests as their first priority. I can believe that of some of the smaller companies, because their ingredients labels sound like real food.
ION, things I have accomplished since 7pm:
- changing the downstairs litterbox
- sweeping and vacuuming living room, dining room, kitchen
- emptying the vacuum container thingy and cleaning the filter
- laundry: a load of bath towels, the old shower curtain liner that Daniel wants to use as a tarp or something, the kitchen rug, the sheets and blanket from the guest bed
- guzzled 20oz of water

Sorry you are missing Toto. And you are not an idiot, just a bit scatterbrained. I'm sorry you'll be feeling the effects of missing the meds until you get that sorted, though.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Ummm...wow. That's just terrifying. My brother also has his masters in pastoral counseling, but from a Baptist seminary. He's a lot more fundy than me, but not as scary as some I've met/am related to.
{{{vw}}} I completely understand missing Toto. I miss my cat when I'm away from home. That's one reason he travels with me so much.

I hope you had a wonderful birthday, Katie Bee!
Congratulations on the job, Emily! Yeah that you get to learn a new subject? My mom's old boyfriend was told one August that he would be teaching pottery, never having touched clay in his life. He quick got some books on pottery and taught it to himself. I don't know how good he was at teaching it, but it ended up being one of his favorite classes.
Tell you what: you come to my house and help me clean up, and then I'll come to your house and help you!
Up to this week, I would have totally taken you up on this, Zenkitty. This week, I actually seem to be able to do my own. I know it's only Wednesday, but I've gotten significant cleaning done each day this week and got a bag of clothes I no longer wear taken to Salvation Army today. I'm really proud of myself, and a little scared, because I can't imagine this lasting. I mean, I'm not even rushing because of impending company or anything. Just working. And reading. And not sleeping.
And now, off to do more laundry and dishes.
eta: I almost forgot in the mememe. Much ~ma for Sammy, Andi. Hugs. And no, the corn makes no sense. It seems that homemade would be better. Or, when I was in California at a fancy, shmancy pet store, they had frozen meat for dogs and cats. I don't remember what the brand was, but Googling frozen cat food brings up several options.
