linky, please? i've joked about something like this for one of my cats.
The link to the page I got the plans from to make this pouch has evaporated, and it hasn't shown up on the Wayback Machine yet. A quick Google hasn't come up with any thing similar. Aaargh! If you want, later today I can try to describe how I make this one. It was incredibly easy. For now, I have to get offline so I can Sammie to the vet - annual shots and checkup.
P-C, you ok, man? How many fingers am I holding up?
Two.
By the way, Aims, I've got another answer for your neck scar when you tire of the Headless Hunt (As if!).
"For last Halloween I went as a Pez dispenser."
Yeah, I'd have had words with that asshole a long time ago, but then I'm like that. Not saying you should, Tep, since everyone handles assholes differently.
Wait, that sounded funny.
I'm extremely lucky in that I work with people I like. There's one person who used to use baby-talk when she wanted help with something, but I told her to stop and she has. And another couple, who are married with kids (to others) are having an affair, and I don't care for that (one reports to the other...), but individually they're not annoying.
I need to get out of this hotel and go check out Niagara Falls. I am super hungry but the room service menu is limited, so I guess it's a tourist-trap restaurant for me!
Sudden panic attacks are of the suck.
Good lord, yes. I started having one this morning, and promptly went for a run. Tep, I hope the Ativan does its job. Mmmm, Ativan.
Congrats, d! I really like it. Is that a grapevine on the patio?
I'm voting assholish, Teppy. Sound to me like he's got a superiority complex coupled with poor social skills. By the time Aspies are adults, a lot of them have figured out what makes them different and how to either try to fit in or avoid situations where they do not. (at least from what I've read on Aspergers--which is a lot since we suspect that's where Owen falls on the spectrum)
Congratulations, d! It looks great!
d - what a cute house. Congratulations.
Obviously it depends on degree of Aspergers. But at least some people with Aspergers can be pretty good at social skills. I know at least one Aspergers person who is a successful professor, very charming in most one to one situations. He has a near genius IQ, figured out early that social clumsiness was hurting him in getting what he wanted, and uses the same parts the brain he uses to do math and write brillian economics papers to figure out out to handle social situation. Where the Aspergers still shows if someone takes him by surprise with a category of behavior he does not a have prepared category of response for. Though his default response to stuff he does not know how to handle can actually be very effective, which is smile sweetly, and walk out of the room if practical, turn his back (literally) if walking out is not practical, and close his eyes and turn his head away if turning his back is not practical. I can think of a lot of cases where this behavior pattern is superior what I have done in similar situations. In all fairness there are degrees of Aspergers, and I don't think my acquaintence has the most severe type.
