[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
She flung herself against me, crying, "No! No! My freedom! My FREEEEDOMMMM!"
That's hysterical!
I took 3 tylenol and put on some aloe vera gel (that I had forgotten I had until d mentioned it). It still hurts, but not so bad that it makes me want to cry. I'll see if I can find a bandage big enough for it. I think I have some gauze and medical tape.
ChiKat, just keeping it in a bowl of cool water helps a lot. The moist burn pads [link] while pricey, are magic. Really. When I spilled the boiling water on my foot a few years ago, I went through pretty much every remedy known to man. There are also burn sprays with benzocaine in them that will numb it up for a while.
I may has passport soon! My check got cashed!
Also, latest update is dad's getting a little more feeling in his right arm. This is very encouraging. Should know more tomorrow after mom reports on MRI.
The moist burn pads
I think I'm going to look for these at Walgreens tomorrow. Thanks for the tip, Ginger!
I'm the last person to be saying this, but your vet should be able to show you how to do sub-Q fluids. It's definitely a two-person job, and three is ideal.
It really depends on the cat. My cat, whom I thought would kick the shit out of me for trying something like this, lets me do it alone. It's not a problem. ~ma for your kitty.
Yay for any encouraging news about your dad, d!
ChiKat, I hope you burn heals quickly.
FRREEEEEEDOMMMMM-loving kids make me smile.
Fred Pete, thank you for the input. I have already come to the conclusion that I need the peace of mind of getting the other test done. I hate needles, but I feel more at ease with the idea of learning how to do sub-Q fluids than I am with feeding my cat food so high in refined corn. Then again, it is possible that there are other brands that do an appropriate feline kidney care diet that would rest easier on my mind. I will have to look into it.
Kitty kibble.
Yes! Royal Canin Innovative Veterinary Diets - while the dry food is full o'corn, the canned is not. [link] Yay!
:( I left the iPod at work. No bedtime playlist. No alarm clock playlist :(
At least I had fun with Laga and SonusExMachina at a great concert, The Fenians!!
Yay for yummy birthday dinner & softserve, Aimee!
At least I had fun with Laga and SonusExMachina at a great concert, The Fenians!!I'm so bummed we missed it. Grumble. Pout. Stupid LA traffic. Stupid commuting.

Yay for good birthdays!
From way back, to smonster: No, I am not traveling to NC this weekend, since it just doesn't work when he wants to make a side trip to his friends and I'd be squeezed in the car with Frisbee players. I have, however, answered the SYTYCD call and am planning to roadtrip down for the show. You are officially forewarned. (Any other DCistas wanna road trip in Oct?)
