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.
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

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.)

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.)

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I had a cat in 400 sq ft. When I moved to larger places, she mostly still prefers to live in a basket in my closet.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I had two cats in 475 sq ft studio in NYC. They seemed very happy as long as there was a window to threaten birds though.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Close. Backstory: I had a friend in the FAC who called me Teppy (this was pre-Buffistas).
How DID she get to using the second, third, and fourth letters of your name as the basis for a nic? Where there an abundance of Stephs?

I had an 18 lb dog in a 196 square foot apartment. We were also between Central and Riverside Parks, however.

I have a number of Facebook friends whose online identities I'm not quite sure of aside from being buffistas.
This is me, too. I've always been quester. I started out on Figure Skating boards before I found Table Talk and you guys.
But my real-ish name is Toni, in case anyone is wondering who recently got friend requests from me.

I think the age of the cat also depends on how (and therefore you) would handle loving in a small space. I don't know my square footage, but I'm over a two car garage. My two cats are about 8 years old and this winter have been quite content to be house cats and sleep a lot. If they were the kittens they used to be, then I'd worry about losing sleep as they did suicide runs back and forth in the small space.
