Good news in Katieville today: my oldest cat, Sophie, suddenly developed horrible crusty growths on her right ear. Biopsy came back today with no definitive markers for cancer and plenty for fungal infection. I am going to buy Monistat to put onto a cat's ear! I find this hilarious. Probably because I am so relieved that it's not going to be ear amputation. Her ears are very cute, like her tail and her toes and her calico coat.

DebetEsse, I'm sorry, but it looks like I missed it (I'm not sure what time it was, and I think I am 12 hours ahead of you).

Yay good kitty biopsy!
Now, gotta run, tons of Rosh HaShana errands to run. Shana tova, all! As the saying goes, may this year and its troubles soon be over and let us begin a year full of blessings. Pretty f---ing please?

Shana tova!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Last night I dreamed that Buffistas wasn't a message board; it was a physical place, a converted townhouse, where people could meet IN PERSON and talk. (It actually looked a lot like the synagogue across the street from me).
But then, a couple of limousines pull up, and out step Kevin Feige and Joss Whedon. Feige had brought Whedon there to try to get him to patch things up with fandom. Except that Joss was still being an arrogant jerk who wouldn't listen to us. The rest of the dream was me walking up and down the stairs of the building, trying to reach Joss and talk to him.

Were we all sitting around on our laptops? Sorry about the walking up and down the stairs part. Not very restful.

Dreams are rarely that realistic; I'd believe us sitting around communicating telepathically.

I'm glad you got good, and potentially amusing, cat news, Katerina.
I've been living a moderate, if not great, introvert life since March, aside from, you know, death in the family, hardship for many friends, and watching my country descend into chaos and misery. But damn if all the everything isn't starting to wear me down.
Tom, that's a nifty dream.

ltc had no fever today and it never got above 99 yesterday, so she's at school today. I think it is just an allergy/sinus thing.

What is even happening?

Are we sure this was a dream, Scola?
