Thanks Lise!

Serves you right.

He does NOT have a wattle!

Still. Cool new avatar.

I was in a bad mood after work, but I just got to learn about aluminum seat posts, cannibalism, pooping on the floor, and placenta.

This thread is great.

In other news, I have finally decided to battle the downstairs neighbors. Last night my apartment was so full of their cigarette smoke that it woke me up at 4am. After being a building manager in college, there is very little that I can't sleep through.

My cats were coughing. So, I called the building manager up to take a whiff, and he agreed that it was excessive. Since this building allows smoking, I don't think he can do anything but ask them to shut their outside door, but that would be a huge help. He said he'd speak to the owner, because there was no reason why it should be that bad. They're also *really* loud (lease has a quiet clause) and have been spoken to at least twice in the last two weeks for noise (I've been gone for half of that) so that might provide some leverage, but...

If they want to smoke, it's their decision, but it's also my decision not to. I would really, really like to not have to move because of them. This isn't healthy for me or my fuzzballs.

I used to live in a place where these very loud Brazillian people would stand in the courtyard and talk and smoke all night. I was so glad to buy my own place...

Nanci - love the new avatar and ....where did you find that video??? That's great! I was going to guess blue catfish or bullheads. They like to eat! We have a lot of blues at our facility and they go nuts when we feed them.

Good night all (or good morning, depending on where you live).

Insomniac snap here. Woke up at 4:00, never did get back to sleep. Arrgh. Of course the dog decided it must be time to get up too, so she starts bouncing around on the bed.

She was diagnosed with hip displaysia (sp?) yesterday, she's been limping and favoring her right hind leg for a couple of days. Got her on doggie motrin for 2 weeks, along with glucosamine. The drugs have kicked in and she's acting like her old self - obnoxious. "Hey Mom! It's 4:30! Shouldn't we think about getting out of bed and running around the house like a crazy dog?" Bounce, bounce, bounce. "GOOD MORNING! Doesn't my nose feel good against the back of your neck?!?!?"

Is 8:30 am too early for a nap?
