Mayor ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I don't have any coping advice, Hil, but I wish your mom would get over that.
I was sure when I made the appointment this morning that it was for today, but it's actually for next week. Oops. I figured that out after I got to Kaiser but before I tried to check in, so that's something I guess.
I don't think I can take week-long vacations where I don't have real plans anymore. I sit in my house and get lost inside my head and don't eat at regular intervals etc etc. It's not a good thing.
Thanks, everyone.
If I get too frustrated while on vacation, my sister and I (or my dad and I) can go find something to do, and somewhere to eat.
I wonder, does Maine offer vegan Chinese and Indian food? Those could be annoying.
Where in Maine, Hil?
Old Orchard.
I was just in the ladies room here at work, listening to someone in another stall fuss with wrappers and throwing things away and grumbling. A state of transcendent joy fell upon me, causing me to bless Menopause and my freedom from such things.
My mom apologized for freaking out about the food stuff.
She also suggested that we just decide each day what we'll do for dinner. My sister and I both said no to that plan -- we've tried that before, and it goes very badly. Nobody wants to go through all these negotiations while hungry.
I'm sorry that deciding what to do about food is such a chore. There ought to be a better way. One person in charge with the understanding that they need to cover various needs. Each person gets to choose one day with no arguments. Put a bunch of choices in a hat and pull randomly. The focus could be more on enjoying time together, unless this is a tasting vacation.
Scrappy the Cat escaped almost 2 weeks ago. We got him back but he hid well (actually he just hid under the house but never let us see him). He is skin and bones but his appetite has been good.
He was meowing almost yowling occasionally when we touched him but nothing seemed wrong. He was walking, running jumping on the bed etc. Maybe not as much or as playful. I chalked this up to him being malnourished.
But he seems to have hurt his tail. He doesn't twitch his tail but he will move it when he sits. I'm trying to figure out if this is serious enough for the vet.
I guess we will just watch him
