Cash - I have, but I didn't care for it much, mostly because it was too thick a line. I have issues.
Natter 67: Overriding Vetoes
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Mr Peabody had almost zero interest in dry food until I brought home a sample of Chef Michael's. I wonder if Chef Michael's needs a spokesdog? Since he has limited interest in food at all, I feel compelled to indulge him. At least the ingredients start with meat.
The liquid pencil was disappointing. I still use mine because I am stubborn like that. But it takes too much pressure to write, and it gives an inconsistent line. It`s like a ballpoint pen, it clumps and is uneven. It would have been better if they`d chosen different pen mechanics. Nor does it change to permanent after the amount of time advertised.
Your experience may vary. You can ask sumi, she bought a bunh. You can try for yourself, but after the amount of excited I was about it, I ended up sorely disappointed.
Neither of mine gave an even line, Cash. I don't like it much.
So a co-worker of mine is married to a Jamaican woman with a very odd name that's the same name as a girl I went to high school with. He assures me I didn't go to high school with her because she was born in '68. Except that's precisely the year I went to high school with, having been born in '69 and been a year ahead. So now I've come out wrt my age to my co-workers, which was weird and not weird at the same time.
I didn't tell him what high school I went to, but I asked him to ask her where she went. He wasn't sure about her maiden name (!!!) but I wasn't sure about N's last name anyway. It's just too weird, whether it's her or there are two of them.
I buy schmancy dog food since the fiasco, but we do make do with Iams or Beneful between reorders. The Biscuit loves the schmancy stuff like a crazy dog, but lost weight on the others because we forgot how vast the difference in protein content was.
I put down the "good" dry cat food, but Leo wants the junk food, to the point of refusing to eat at all, and Percy wants the wet food or the food that's supposed to be treats-only. Strangely, Leo no longer wants the food he grew up eating (the "good" food) and Percy also will no longer eat the food he grew up on, which is the junk food Leo loves that he discovered when Percy arrived with a bag of it.
Argh. I should just give them the good stuff and let them hunger strike until they're hungry enough to eat it. They're far from starving to death. It's not them I fear for; it's my sanity, which I will lose if I have to listen to them taking turns wailing.
And no way are either of them getting the wet stuff.
We give the dalmatian wet food to stimulate her appetite, since she was shunning the dry food (even when we soaked it for a long time to make it mooshy, because we thought maybe the dry food was too hard on her elderly teeth). She's lost so much weight that we were about to cook a bison to see if that would get her to eat. But it turns out the wet food is just fine with her. And if we mix it with dry food, she'll eat it all. Plus we switched to a "mature" dry dog food formulation, b/c it's higher in calories.
We put just a smidge of wet food on Kato's dry food, because he KNOWS that Chloe is getting the wet food and wants it for himself. A wee tiny bit is enough to make him happy.
The vet told us to start giving Chloe omega-3 supplements, just to poke a hole in the gel cap and squoosh the fish oil into her food. Now, THAT smells horrible. Ick. But she gobbles it up.
I had to think back to my sister-in-law's maiden name but that's been 21 years and she's, you know, not MY spouse.
Mom just called me to ask if I'd been groped when I flew last weekend. I explained that I hadn't noticed the new machines in PDX, saw one in San Diego but hadn't been asked to use it and the conversation moved on. I assumed that she was asking because she flies up here next weekend.
Then she went to end the call with, "Okay, I just wanted to make sure you weren't groped." Um, okay. Thanks? It was sweet but I really misread that conversation.
I felt like Sheldon.
I gave him grief for not knowing her maiden name, but then again, Jamaican naming can be complicated and I have a lot of relatives whose names I don't actually know. And I didn't learn my parents' full names until I was in my teens.
Man, my pets are easy. Even if they don't like what I feed them enough to not eat, they're quiet about it and give up before too long.
I'm not sure how to spell either of my grandmothers' maiden names. Or my mother-in-law's maiden name. Or my dad's middle name. This is sometimes a problem with security questions.
