Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I posted on FB, but Ozzie is gone. Poor mac came home from school and thought he was dead since he was not moving. Called me hysterical.

Oz was very close to death, but I got him to the vet in his bed and he was peaceful. There was another family there for the same reason, sad evening at the vet.

Being very catlike, Sylvester is unmoved. just wants his dinner and my lap.

I'm applying beer.

We don't have any other feline diabetics on the board anymore do we? I guess I should contact a cat rescue and see if they could use the needles and insulin.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Yes, agreeing that you are very much loved msbelle. Sorry for the sucky day.

My girl is such a tween, veering between on top of her work and letting important stuff slip through the cracks, capable self-reliance and getting in her own way. She has a friend over and they are, for the record, mostly studying. They are also watching Panic at the Disco videos.

Oh, I'm so sorry, Rebecca, many hugs for you and E. Such a hard thing, I really feel for him having to come home to that.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

What a crappy day, msbelle.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm so sorry, msbelle. Oz was a good cat.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Warning: baby potty grossness.

Apparently my friends two and a half year old has started removing his diaper and pooping and peeing everywhere. And if he's not doing that, he poops in the diaper, takes it off, and then smears it. He sits on the training potty, smiles, does nothing, then gets off it and pees on the floor.

Beyond commiserating on the awfulness of it, I can't even begin to understand a kid at that stage of development.

In annoying work anecdotes, the ED called the city to open up our entrance further. As we both watched the city truck smoosh snow into eight foot high blocks of concrete, he said "so we'll have to make sure the banner is visible, so you'll have to shovel the snow out of the way".

Um.
