I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Light pre-sedation for cats is common. Ask about it. It’s easier for everyone, especially cats having breathing issues. They’ll maybe watch her for longer so a longer wait (we are completely curbside for all but necessary compassionate euthanasia and that is one person only) but better than a tooth and claw tornado.

Oh, the contortionist show and hour-and-twenty marathon chase was after lacing her breakfast with gabapentin, Cass. She only ate enough to get down maybe 50 mg, but was apparently very calm and lethargic until I tried picking her up in a towel. Fortunately her breathing seems much better now. Maybe I just needed to get her lungs working like a bellows all along?

Like how all the turkey farmers didn't (couldn't?) change how many turkeys they produced this year, and without Ren Faires and big Thanksgivings and such there is a turkey glut.

move out and draw fire

anyone came and asked me to do something that wouldn't allow me to complete other tasks, it was boss' decision to say which of the tasks will be dropped/delayed to next week.

I just learned a phrase for this! "Only so many penguins can fit on the island." So now whenever news tasks get added to my workload I picture them as penguins zooming up out of the water, and then I picture penguins falling off the other side of the island.

Our wings are not tired.

I needed DH to get something or me from Home Depot. I was going to get curbside pickup, but I added TP to the list, and that couldn't be included because of possible shortages. He went into the store and was able to get a couple 12 packs.
