This is a time of celebration, so sit still and be quiet.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now tagless for your comfort.

GC, I hope it's nothing but a boring meeting and nothing untoward happening at the DW's workplace.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I cat-sat a Maine Coon once--she was a sweetie, and such a long fluffy tail she had! She loved to curl up in my arms and have me scritch her head and chin, and she'd just drooooool and sit there for over an hour until I'd had enough. My cat will only sit on me for petting sessions lasting 5-8 minutes, tops, before she's off.

The Strange Buildings are pretty delightful. It's great that people can figure out how to build such wacky looking structures.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

One person (not DW) got laid off. Sad, but could have been worse.

My MiL has a completely insane Maine Coon. She attacks without provocation. Terrible animal.

Okay, there is a Baskin Robins commercial that starts with a child saying, "Don't be so vanilla!" So. Wrong.

Glad it wasn't worse, Glam. Those meetings are rough even when they are relatively benign.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

whee, relief , GC. I remember the story about your MIL's cat. But didn't she get that cat without meeting it? Not a good way. Plus -- it seems they need attention and people around

She did get the cat without meeting it. She is home with the cat most days, all day. That animal just has a screw loose. I like my mutt cats - they never attack me.

Most of the ones on the rescue site are mutts. They are just guessing by characteristics. But your MIL's experience and a few others -- means I want to spend a littl e time with a cat before adopting. I don't need any heartbreak
