Tara: 'Your One-Stop Spot to Shop for Lots of New-Age and Occult Items.' Catchy. Giles: Think so? Tara: Uh huh. In a... hard to say sorta way.

[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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Wow BT. That is awesome an dyet a bit freaky.

It really is. I mean, the guy's CV makes pretty clear he's been something of a high flyer. I don't really live in the high flying part of town here - most of my neighbours are tradies. Running into him was unexpected.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Oh, Erin, I meant to come back to this:

You wouldn't need a deflector shield, with that ammoniacal reek.

Our cats' litter boxes don't get too bad unless I wait a couple days too long to change the litter. (Using pine pellets - once it stops smelling like saw dust, it's time to change 'em.) Even this morning when Harvey was peeing into non-absorbent, non-odor-controlling plastic beads, while there was a scent, it was not strong, or eye-watering. I do remember that sensation from changing litter boxes of cats in the past, back when I still fed them dry food. If your cats' urine is really strong with the ammonia, it may be a sign that they need more hydration. Cats often do not drink enough fluids to keep themselves in optimal health.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Empathy for Harvey, whose urinary tract issues sound very like my own!

Much house~ma, Aims.

Had to skim as have been ridiculously busy - hope everyone else is doing OK.

We're off to BBC TV Centre to record The Girl's panel interview! (Which, we found out to great amusement yesterday, will be broadcast at 5.45 on a Saturday morning. Way to promote feminism, BBC. But there should be an online version at least!) Then Derby to talk about what "disability support" I may need to do my PhD (oh joy). Then home again. And I woke up thinking I had a free day, till The Girl reminded me otherwise. Heh.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I read that too fast and too late. Wondered why Seska was peeing into non-absorbent, non-odor-controlling plastic beads.

Time for bed. Fr srs.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Fuck. The eye vet thinks my dog has a tumor. In it's freaking head. CT next week. This is not good, because if it is a tumor, it's huge enough to pressure on his eye on the inside and make it infected and causing him pain.

Don't need this. I just wish there was something I could do for him. He hardly eats now. Yesterday night I crushed his regular food into yogurt, thinking he's not eating because of the pain, and it worked - but it took ages to do so.

~mas to those who need it.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm sorry, Shir. I hope the vet finds a problem that isn't too dire and can be quickly treated.

{{{{Shir&dog}}}} I hope whatever it is, it is treatable.

He sends his best purrs to you, and hopes that yours aren't due to your mother feeding you mostly crappy kibble the first seven years of your life.

Much ~ma to beth's brother. Poor guy. Tough situation.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Shir, I'm so sorry.

beth, I hope things work out.

New cat almost scratched her eye out last night. She has trouble fully retracting her claws and since she's become basically an indoor cat over the past couple of years they're way too long. I came home last night and her eye was all bloody, but after I cleaned it off it's clearly a long scratch that starts on her brow ridge and goes straight down to the lower lid. Fortuntately the actual eye seems fine.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I have mixed feelings about this [link]

On one hand it is an old edition...
