"Oh right! I meant to snark about Twilight, Edward and the sparkly urine, but my head exploded and I couldn't make it work."
I just snarfed coffee on my keyboard.
Mal spent about 7 hours at the vet and *finally* gave it up and peed in their sterile environement[1]. he has no crystals in his urine, but does have a UTI so it's banana-flavored antibiotics and wet food mixed with extra water for my little furry bladder on legs!
[1] After, allegedly, growling at his state of incarceration and attacking the bars of the cage in myriad cute ways. The vet techs took *lots* of digital pics of him, most of which are pretty awesome.
so DH just had an emergency tooth extraction. yay! I was trying to remember what foods worked for people in the last few days.
Anything not-hard: smoothies, yogurt, applesauce, bananas, ice cream, peanut butter (actually, a PB&J sandwich on soft bread [as opposed to the aggressively high-fiber bread that has more whole grains that can be sort of poke-y]), soup, pasta that doesn't require intense chewing (so, no lasagna, but do try angel hair or other skinny/tiny pasta), and baked/mashed potatoes.
Honestly, if he chews on the side opposite from the extraction, he should be fine for just about anything. But if his whole mouth is tender (and it might be for a day or 3), then go with the mooshy foods.
Happy Birthday, NoiseDesign!
Daniel and WindSparrow, sorry, but I got nothing on the work situation. In fact, I really don't even know if I read it right.
{Askky} on the bad time she went through.
And happy birthday, NoiseDesign!
Happy Birthday, ND!

Daniel, I would think your best approach would be simple honesty. If there's a problem, explain the conversation to which you were responding and let them know that you had no knowledge of any other conversation happening.
What Steph said, Beth. The main thing to avoid is little seeds or grains, because they can get stuck in the socket. (Why do I have so much bitter personal experience? Why?) Things like ice cream can be soothing. Most things are fine if he chews on the other side, but I ended up avoiding things that require a lot of chewing, because it seemed to take at least twice as long to eat them while chewing on one side. I ate a lot of soup, yogurt, peanut butter and grilled cheese.
Happy Birthday to my love!
grilled cheese.
Oh! I forgot grilled cheese! Yes -- food of the GODS for a tooth-extract-y person!
