Jesse, you should see if there are mobile vets in your area.

Maybe I can go after work Wednesday or Thursday, but I don't know how late the vet is open. Meh. He seems OK.

I went to the lake because it was hot, with friends. The lake was nice and cold. Friend brought floaty raft thing, and I laid on it and enjoyed the waves. Now I am home on the couch, and still feel the waves. Whoah.

We still don't have summer here.

I liked your pictures spidra, but I do wonder how many kinds of avocados there are

I accomplished way less than Nora

ma towards your cat Jesse

It's not a lot all at once, but every couple of days for a while now. Now I wonder if it's related to the new food I got last time, out of laziness. I'll go get some of the previous food tomorrow and then we'll see.

In the meantime, Jesse, try giving him hairball crap. It might be that and won't hurt.

My hands keep cramping clawlike. Glad I decided not to put on more stripper tonight. I can do that tomorrow and give my hands a night off. What to tackle next....I could start on the spindles. I only aim to do one coat on them, since I'll just sand them smooth and paint white. One at a time doesn't seem like too much weeknight work. Though there are 52 to go....

We are watching Spartacus: Blood and Sand. I get the feeling that the characters who have my sympathy aren't the characters they want me to root for.

In the meantime, Jesse, try giving him hairball crap.

It's some of that, so I'm brushing him like crazy. And I can't get the hairball stuff into him.

Butter will work, too. If he likes that. Basically, anything that's a lube.

N.B.: No one was actually harmed in the following story.

Sara comes up and tells Stephen, "Um, I accidentally kicked Ben in the face. Then he kicked me in my eternal organs."

Even when they're annoying, you can always count on kids for a good malaprop.
