Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Feel better, amyth!

Does it involve caffeine, Jesse?

Apparently there will be coffee. I don't think that's enough, somehow.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Someone please tell me not to try out for my school's production of Gypsy. PLEASE??? I do not have the time for it if I do make it, and there's only one part I'd want, anyway.

Go ahead, guess which one.

How to Make a Tin Foil Hat for a Dog

Clovis would like me to point out that the Evil Bunny Alliance never aims the mind control satellites at dogs. And that tinfoil hats don't work against EBA tech, anyway.

How to Make a Tin Foil Hat for a Dog

I am quite certain that, if she weren't afraid of tinfoil, and hats, and probably of making things, Darby would be all over that.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Ugh. I flea-dipped the dog, and pulled about a zillion fleas off with the flea comb. He's drying now, and I will put the flea goo on him, and he's in purdah until we can get the house done.

I think we're going to have to put him and Greer in the kitchen tonight, and keep Cosmo upstairs to let the salt, borax, lavender and mint set up tonight.

I sprayed Cosmo with this natural flea repellent. It certainly smelled better than the big sray D used (on furniture, not pets) last week, but it smells like hippie death now. And She sneezed out an incredible amount of snot. DID NOT LIKE.

I'm gonna have to get out the glove for Gimlet, and maybe I'll lay a towel around her head while I spray her.

Flea killing SUCKS. But poor Arthur was just encrusted.

Our wings are not tired.

Erin, you'll never have to go through that again once you start using Frontline or Advantage. I have two dogs and two (part time) cats and haven't even SEEN a flea for over 10 years due to those meds. They aren't cheap but they're worth every penny.

Ugh, Erin, what a PITA!

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

Fleas suck. I've never had a problem with an Advantaged cat though. I've totally slacked here and - knock a lot of wood - still haven't had a problem. If I do though, immediate Advantage. Sorry you have to deal with this, Erin.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Seconding javachik on this--life is a lot easier for the pets (and me) with Frontline or Advantage.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

Thanks, Jesse!

Apparently, the stress of dealing with the high-maintenance consultants for the rest of the day on her birthday, coupled with getting back to the office late and locking herself out of the building, which means she's maybe going to have to miss her soccer game tonight, made my boss forget that she told me to take the day off tomorrow. She just called me to tell me not to come into the office in the morning, but to go straight to our first consultant meeting. I said, "...Sure," because in my head, "Sure," means, "Friday," because now I have a fever.

Go ahead, guess which one.

Everything's coming up roses?

Frontline or Advantage.

Or that new pill, Comfortis? Which I always wanted to try with Lulu, but never got around to it.
