There was a former poster whose name had Tep in it and someone jokingly suggested she go by Teppy. Her response was HELL NO. And Steph was like - Teppy is cool! I'll be Teppy.
Close. Backstory: I had a friend in the FAC who called me Teppy (this was pre-Buffistas). There was a former poster whose name had "Tep" in it, and Trudy referred to that person as "Teppy," and I commented how weird it was to see that, since someone else used to call me that. (And the former poster didn't care for it as a nickname, so I inherited it.)
I'm so sorry that so many people are having such a horrible day. {{{buffistas}}}
I do not have cupcakes, but this is the time of year that my market has paczki. So, I had an apple cinnamon one. I don't know if they're as good as ones from a specialty bakery, but the one I had was delicious.
Lots of hugs for all the Buffistas having awful bad days. And sympathetic nods for the non-huggers.
Today I finally caught up with Natter. All I really have to add is that Allyson has the most lovely hair.
This is way into theoretical land, but it has bearing on my future housing contemplations. Would a single cat be happy in a less-than-700 square foot apartment if it never went outside? I like having cats around, but the place I was looking at today only allows single pets, and I'd hate to have a bored and lonely kitty in a one-bedroom apartment all day while I was at work.
My cats were always outside more than they were inside, but pretty lazy and didn't seem to need much entertainment. I think a good window view would suffice while you were away.
I have a friend in an efficiency with a cat; she doesn't seem to have any qualms or concerns with hers.
I had two cats in a 500 sq ft apt, only one of them went outside and then only one brief trip a day, and they seemed ok with it.
I was asked today if one of coworkers was so dedicated to her job because her husband was dead lo this past decade and basically she didn't have a life anymore. I was so shocked I was speechless. 1) way to question the motives of ones integrity and passion 2) assuming she didn't have a life now that she no longer had a spouse and 3) this is the guy who works 10-12 hour days and sees his wife once a week and hangs out in his office after hours rather than go home to his onsite apartment.
I had three cats, one who hated the others in a750 sq ft apartment. (Of course, I said I then bought a house because the third cat pushed it over the edge, but not really.)
Timelies all!

My board name is my real name, and I'm not on Facebook. (Most of my board/forum names are variations of my real first name. Only place where that wasn't the case was TWoP.)
