Oz likes to deposit twist ties (his favourite toy) into his water dish then manages to slosh most of the water out of the dish while retrieving it.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I have seen more than one cat drink from a running faucet. And knew one who would specifically ask for it to be turned on whenever I went into the bathroom at its house.
Jeeves does this with the kitchen faucet. He'll sit on the edge of the sink and headbutt the faucet until I turn it on for him.
I dread the day he figures out how to turn it on. He could, if he nudged the lever the right way. One of these days, I'll come home to a flood.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Smoked Turkey
We had a Harry and David smoked turkey for Thanksgiving and it was maybe the most delicious bird I have ever nommed. Epically tasty.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I think most pet-owners (of non-idiotic pets) feel this way about something.

I took care of a friend's cats: both adored for you to turn on the faucet to drink from. One liked to drink the water after it poured over his head and ran down his face. He'd center the stream to hit the top of his head. He was also the one who showered with friend daily (he had his own towel.)
I thought they were anomalies.
Come to think of it, the non-showerer was also named Loki. I'd forgotten that.
I still am having massive hateon for work. Bad.

My sister's cat pretty much only drinks from the running tap.

Pico, when he was an only cat, would sit in the tub and meow loudly and let the acoustics of the tub make it even louder until I came and turned on the tap.
Clio, when she was a kitten, would get in the shower with me.

Kat, Mary Kay makes a KICK ASS lip balm. I use it all winter and it keeps chapping at bay.

Work will leave me alone... next year. And then it will go insane again. (I put in my Nepal/Bhutan trip because it looks like launch will slip again and fuck that, the deposit has been made. But talk about clusterfuck. I'll have bought a new home, be leaving the country AND be needed at work. Um. I won't ask for a raise this year.) I'll ignore it starting Saturday, nothing more I ca do at that point.
