I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Thanks to my parents house, my girls now have fleas.

I know I'm gross, but I'm also proud that my kitties have been pesticide free for over two years. No problems with fleas, worms. The ocassional tick. Maybe the health problems will catch up and I should have pet ownership rights revoked, but a big part of me sees the whole rabies/etc. fear-mongering as a way for the companies to make money. My kitties are living in a threshhold tolerance that seems to be working.

I mean, wild animals have fleas and ticks, and they're not dropping dead in a pandemic.

Also, the idea that a flea/tick has to bite my cat in order for the pesticide to work . . . hasn't the feared infection already been passed to the cat?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

But admission has given me the recommended amount of medication within the recommended window.

Glad to hear they got something right.

What makes me angriest is knowing that there are people there who know what's the what and yet still every week, week after week, it's a fight to get them to follow the drug plan.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm not sure what the next step for me with the social worker I spoke to is...she said she'd leave a message for "my" social workers, but then what? I mean they think it's fine to leave me out of the equation so far, what's going to be different with my radical "I want to do what's simplest, safest, most straightforward, effective, and respectful of everyone's resources" position.

This social worker thought it was strange...

Jilli, I don't understand how you'd work this [link] with a skirts only wardrobe--what am I missing? Isn't that mandatory hands up your skirts and leather under layers?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Dag, I want some caramel corn now and just realized I haven't seen Cracker Jacks in stores in forever.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Back from Philcon. Had fun, though I didn't get to meet up with Sox after all.(She wasn't feeling well, and had to cancel)

Bought my Hobbit ticket. I'm making the assumption I'll be flying out to BWI mid-day or so, for the wedding the next day. I should still be conscious...

Hopefully that works out.

Tickets home are exorbitant. Man...if it were optional, I wouldn't spend it. But this is always in the yearly budget.

Damn, that Michonne chick on The Walking Dead is predictably AWESOME.

Which isn't related to the muffins I added too much liquid to...

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

ita ! I'm so sorry.

Has it been confirmed that the person Broadwell was harassing was also having an affair with P4?

Thanks, le nubian. I'll have to go look for an update from what I read last.

I think all you need to do is scroll up in Natter. I think I linked to the stuff.
