Oh, msbelle, I'm so sorry
That's beautiful. Or taken literally, incredibly gross.

Sorry for the awfulness, msbelle.

In the end it's only ever been one step, and then the next.
msbelle, no, I'm so sorry.

Toddson, hooray for a quick and easy vaccination!
Re: the cat who perched on the roof of a Manchester-bound train in the UK, I am choosing to believe that they are one of the magicians from Diane Duane's Feline Wizards series, who decided the most effective way to keep that particular train from encountering a spell trap was to catloaf on top for two and a half hours. I love that the station staff refer to them as
"swaggering off" into the night, as though they had other places to be

You know, I keep seeing YouTube videos where people suddenly find a cat in their closed/locked home. Things like, they get up in the middle of the night and there's a cat in their kitchen sink; they're all "I don't have a cat" and it occurred to me - what if these cats represent an alien invasion? They don't necessarily want to take over the world in the usual sense, they just want someplace where they'll be fed, cared for and generally rule an individual family without the fuss of an actual invasion or fighting humans. Really - many cats COULD be aliens and they can live a life of comfort if not luxury without much in the way of exertion.

If I had the option of convincing someone I was a cat, picking a house and teleporting in does seem like a good option

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
msbelle, I'm so sorry. I keep hoping the awful will abate for all of us.
Congratulations, Todd! We were finally able to get appointments for my parents tomorrow. My sister also snagged one for me, and hers is on Monday. I am incredibly relieved, especially for my folks.

Toddson, based on my late feline overlords and Ken's current one, that strikes me as extremely plausible.
Dear service people, call and tell me my car's finished? I don't want to drive over the Narrows Bridge in a downpour, please and thank you. (I've done it, but do not like.)
