{{Drew & loved ones}} I am so sorry. I hope things turn out better than anticipated.
Hil, I love reading that you now have multiple options and possibilities.
All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

Herding cats for fun
Howdy-doo, Buffistaville.
I am spending the day herding cats, since the pets have discovered the joys of Going Outside. They are ecstatically happy to wander through the towering clumps of California poppies and carefully sniff the windy air. Pearlie, the baby, became an expert tree climber on her very first try, and when she's on the ground, she's leaping after bugs and being adorable.
I find it endearing that they are only comfortable with their expeditions if I leave the door open and stay where they can see me. Nobody wants to be trapped on the Wrong Side of the door.
Also I am happy to report that Squeak, the elderly and shy cat who has been prescribed the subQ fluid routine, has endured Lori's therapy visits with very little residual trauma. He does recognize the sound of her car in time to hide under the bed, since he's a clever boy. We have to plan a sneak attack where she calls when she's on her way.

Am freaking out because I have to do a day long training session (on the last day of a full week of training) for like 60 people next week. Eep!
OTOH, the training is in Cancun! It's for our Latin American org, so not quite such a boondoggle as you might think. But still.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
brenda, Cancun! Awesome! Hell, half your students will be hungover.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I just saw a TV ad for a razor designed to trim your pubes. Women would walk by raggedy topiary that would immediately transform into neatly trimmed shapes. I'm glad I'm living in liberated times but oh dear. This seems OTT offensive. Have I become prudish?

What's wrong with cooter topiary?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hec just made me think of The Dukes of Hazard.

It was the way the ad was presented. Guh, I'm having trouble enunciating my feelings.
