'Selfless'

Time for another Serious Talk with my cat.
I am confident that these talks will prevent our cats from ever getting sick or dying.
I don't expect the ever part, but I have had several talks since September with Perkins the (14 year old, bad kidney-ed) cat about how he is Not Allowed to get seriously sick until at least next October.
I already started trying to feed Oz pumpkin this weekend, as a low fat replacement for some of his food. It's not going that well, but if he's hungry enough, he'll eat it.

My Brother's dog died two weeks ago, so I am already having stressful thoughts about things coming in threes.
I am confused by "seneschal."
I spent a small fortune having one of Ruby's teeth pulled a couple of months ago. I didn't realize how bad an abscess had become, and had GREAT TERRIBLE GUILT that I let her be in pain. And then Kristen had to help me wrestle her down to get her antibiotics and pain meds inside her.
RUBY! I AM TRYING TO HELP YOU. STOP FREAKING OUT.
Also, please tell me when you do not feel good. Somehow.
Your poor mom, Sue. I've got a 19+ year old diabetic cat. I'm past the borrowed time part and have been moved onto a prepayment plan...
My dad has taken to delivering bad/sad news in email. Which, well, it is so dad. Means he doesn't have to talk about it. Usually the subject line is the name of the person/pet, and a terse single line inside.
Less than ideal (how I got the news my aunt had died, in the middle of the day at work) but...the phone call would contain just about as much actual words.
This means that when I got an email at work just before Xmas with just Josh in the subject line, I about had a heart attack.
He was asking for gift ideas.
OMG, your dad!
I am confused by "seneschal."
Who with the what now?
Seneschals are often confusing. Fortunately, one can also often bap them on the head.
(this may make no sense to anyone not in the SCA.)
There's a wild cat that seneschal makes me think of.
BT, the French thing was mainly a second language familiarity. Why would you tack 'way' on the end of it anyway? Also, she was irritating.

Oh god, he and my mom should start a club! Only she just goes one step further and just puts in the subject line "Uncle Woody died."
Like I want to click that e-mail.

Heh. In hindsight, I should have been more curious why people always seemed to say "segue-way" and never just "segue". It's a bit of a giveaway. In my defence, this is the same "people" that replaces "tenets" with "tenants" and thinks "alot" is a perfectly cromulent word.
In conclusion, It's not "mare", Jude-a-Murph, it's "may-or".
