I don't know if this is an option, but whenever we needed the cats out of the way, we'd take them to a groomer for the day.
So far I have only found dog groomers. I'll keep looking.
Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

All I know about SQL is what information to fill in on the installation screen. When it fails, I uninstall and try again, then yell for help, and we can then say "It's Windows' fault."
ION, the temperature is in the double digits! Yay! We may even break into the 20s today!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
One thing I don't know about SQL is how to install the client. Since I got this laptop I've been a bit coy about getting it installed--I believe my job description shouldn't have SQL in it, but that's because the data in our app should be accessed through the interface, not from around back. That always ends in tears.
I'm not entirely sure where my department is. There computers are here and on, but I've been here over half an hour, and no one.
I guess I could catch up on email.

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

This is for MS SQL Server, right? To install the client, you have to use the server installation file. At some point in the installation process you specify the client software and not the actual server. Not exactly the most intuitive process. (I think the server won't actually install unless you're on a MS server OS.)

Nope, Oracle. And every time I think I'll just wander over to the DBAs and ask for tnsnames help, I decide they've got bigger and better things to do, and maybe so do I.
I didn't catch up on email.

Dunno about Oracle. My boss just writes pass-through queries on MS SQL Server Mgmt Studio in order to query stuff in Oracle.

Though I was in the tech thread here for a second!
Hi. I have been surgeried. Gave me the worst migraine ever. Went to bed when I got home, with a second dose of migraine meds, didn't get up for many hours. (No idea what time I got home, since I was in no shape to look at a clock).
This morning I can see!!!! I mean, it's still all a bit weird and tweaked and my eyes still kinda hurt (both in the spots they did things to but also the whole eyeball--apparently it's a pressure thing). And I could pass a drivers test today--20/40 in one eye (20/70 in the other but). Which makes me very frightened of everyone on the road!!
