I thought Jodi, from Because I Say So!, had really taken the cake with her serialized post about a friend the other day. She topped herself today with her post of an unexpected funeral. Her writing has really gotten wonderful lately and her blog is a pleasure to read. A good way [...]
Yeah, I know one of the stages of grief is anger. No matter how much I know it’s normal to get mad about losing two cats within 6 months, I’m still really freaking pissed off. I’m mad, who can I sue?
On the other hand, I’m afraid to let Maddie go too long without [...]
Lilly decided it was time to cross the bridge to be with her friends. This morning as the vet was getting stuff together to draw blood, Lilly curled up and fell asleep. She stayed that way. I’m off to pick her up and find a nice place in the yard where she [...]
Not looking good. The blood test this morning showed that her values haven’t gone down since Friday. If she doesn’t pull through by tomorrow, I think we’re going to have to put her down.
Meanwhile poor Maddie is really freaked out and every time I go upstairs she’s on me like white on rice, [...]
I have to say that my vet’s office, North Austin Animal Hospital, totally and completely rocks. If you live in Austin and have a pet, it’s worth any length drive to take them here. Dr. Smith, who owns the practice, is the one who’s looking after Lilly. He was also the one [...]
I’ve been getting migraines since I was a teenager. Normally I can just zap them with Midrin. Lately, though, I’ve been getting them once a week or more, and the Midrin isn’t helping. I have no idea what’s causing them - lack of sleep? dieting? I’m sure grinding my teeth plays a [...]
Tivo has decided that we would like to see a movie called Empire of the Ants, a 1977 flick starring Joan Collins. TiVo describes it as “A Florida real-estate woman takes buyers to an island where ants have been swilling radioactive waste”. Sounds like a shoo-in for Rhonda Whatsherface’s UP All Night. [...]
If you haven’t heard the soundtrack for Silence of the Lambs - the musical, well, you’re just not living life. Of particular interest is track 6 - “Put the Fucking Lotion in the Basket”. Upon listening to it I think I let a little drop of pee out. What a catchy tune!
When my grandmother died in 1997, she left behind her Siamese cat named Zeke. He was an ornery old cuss who had a habit of growling and biting. He’d put my grandmother into the hospital on occasion from his bites, but she loved him dearly anyway even though the rest of the family [...]

Actually my CT scan showed that I have both diverticulitis and a kidney stone, but the...
