putting your fingers on both sides of his upper jaw and pushing the skin and gums down so that if the cat tries to bite, he bites himself.
Is my hand going over the top of his nose? I will try to remember this for next time.
My heart expands / 'tis grown a bulge in't / inspired by / your beauty effulgent.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I'm happy it was nothing, TB, and I hope the nothing moves on to msbelle. We need a whole lot of nothing going on.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
grab the cat - get down on the ground, hold the cat between my knees and force the mouth open with one hand . yeah, I sat on the cat.
This is what I have to do with Jeeves when I need to medicate him. Although in my case, it's more a case of sitting cross-legged with the cat in a sort of leg-lock.
Is my hand going over the top of his nose?
I have the palm of my hand on the top of his head, with my thumb and forefinger forming an arch that frames his eyes. His head is small enough that my thumb and finger can get into the jaw joint.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Man, I got some pretty severe beatings right up through my teenage years. Black eyes and fat lips and all.
But I don't think of myself as a kid who was physically abused at all. Happened to other kids in my neighborhood and seemed normal.

I'm hoping all the news is boring, msbelle.
Immobilizing Devi is damned near impossible. She's super flexible. MK has strong jaws, but luckily he is a food whore.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
The puppies have a crate in their pen.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
My mother punished me once by forbidding me to watch Star Trek.

Good lord. My dad just told me that he stumbled over Lucy in the dark the other night, stepped on her, lurched to the side, found she'd also lurched to that side, lather rinse repeat, and ended up falling and nearly staking himself on a wooden tv-table. An ex tv-table.
They're both okay, though he's a little banged up. Yeesh. Dogs iz also dangerous.

How's Lucy doing?
So I've been googling Bhutan and found a particularly eyebrow-raising chronicle of a religious ... ceremony: [link] UM.

“Not dead yet!”
People's running a Sexiest Vampire poll (highly incomplete, but still...)
Not surprisingly, Rob Pattinson's in the lead, but David B. is in second ahead of Brad and Tom and Wesley.
