Got fatass food for Loki. So far, think he likes it. I mixed it in with his regular, now to see if it results in gastric issues or not and he was picking it out. It's a helluva lot cheaper than what I am feeding him now (a lamb and rice brand.) Main issue is if the other cats prefer it, since they are each on their own prescript foods (Devi for digestive, MK for diabetes.)

I think Dita ate one of the dowels I need to (have Matt H) put my TV stand together.

Mmm. The pineapple I chopped up was adequately advertised as sweet. This stuff is like crack.

My husband, the bartender, has invented The Gulf Slick. Coconut vodka, blue curacao, with a layer of Jager floated on top.

DJ, that's brilliant. I want one.

So, I need some advice to give my friend G. What to do when a guy she's dumped keeps calling. Like, continuously. He calls, starts shouting, she says conversation's over and hangs up. He keeps calling. She doesn't answer. He hangs up on voicemail and calls back. Again and again. She unplugs the phone and goes to bed. Six hours later, she plugs the phone back in. It rings in her hand. It's him. He's been calling continuously for six hours. They have a shouting match. Tonight she's expecting him to call and start shouting again. She's just resigned to the shouting match now. I don't know what to say, besides telling her to shoot him.

That sounds a little scary. Should she call the police?

Also, Zen, I recieved my package of 70's craft magazines/pamphlets, and I am delighted, because the magazine was one of the ones I thought was lost forever. My mom even made stuff out of it!

editted to clarify:

she should turn off the ringer until she can change her # and/or call the police.

Is there a way of having the phone company block all calls from that number?

That happened to a roommate of mine once. Big PITA not being able to use our phone for anything.

She should call the local women's shelter to get advice. They see this all the time, sadly, and know what the best methods are, and when to really freak out. She should definitely not engage, even to the point of hello, until she's spoken with them.

Maybe she could hang up, immediately make a call herself. If he got a busy signal would it dissuade him.

I agree with do not engage at all, not one bit.
