Well, they get the publicity, so it works for them.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Raining again here. It's supposed to clear up by the weekend, when my folks are here. Still annoying, though.

Somebody brought in pumpkin pie. I am having a piece.
Possibly the first "pumpkin spice" thing I've had this Fall.
Delicious.

I'm so glad Boss's Day is not generally a thing for us. I used to have a direct report who would give me a card and a gift cert for a coffee shop and it was so uncomfortable because NO.
This year I only knew about it because one of my team sent me an ecard that read "Happy Boss's Day to someone I'm sure would give me the day off if I had ebola." That I can live with.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Long story short: I'm taking emergency care of a diabetic cat, and all the instructions I have for insulin injections is that he gets between 2 and 4 "units" depending on how much he's eaten. In several places, it says "units". And the needles I have, they're marked in MLs. So when they say 'unit' how much does that translate to?
I really don't want to kill this cat.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I just realized that a song I have heard on the radio and liked is by Taylor Swift.
I don't know what to do with this information.

Huh. When I had shoot up the cat duty there was no dosing. Seems like an important detail.

If the needles provided by owner, generally 1 tick mark= 1 unit. For example, I have 3/10cc syringes. They contain 30 units and are marked as such. It's a teeny amount. I'd aim low (the worst case effects aren't as dangerous short term as too high. Is in the immediate.)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Theodosia, if nothing else, call the local emergency vet and ask. They should able to tell you what to do until you can reach the regular vet or the owner. Err on the side of less, not more, and keep an eye on the cat.
