Mmmmmmm. If you are anywhere near a Cheesecake Factory, go in and have a Chocolate Martini. They are *The Best*

I've had my share of corgi-hair-in-the-mouth moments. Not pleasant, I cannot recommend the corgi martini....

Birthday started off sucky, but then I called into work and told 'em to p!ss off for the day.

May your day improve. Good for you for calling in.

Have a Happy Birthday Snap!

Happy Birthday, Snap! And what an excellent call to make on today of all days! Work can wait!

We loved your Chloe collar stories! I can totally see her!

'Cuda is no longer looking like a ballerina, but he is walking on his foot less. Part of me thinks this is a good thing. He's got a proper bandage on, covered by a sock which is fairly liberally (not as much as before) duct taped on. We'll replace the sock probably every evening and morning, and hope to replace the bandage every second day. He would so much rather be playing with the soccer ball right now!

heh, and so would I. I would have loved to skip work today, but fear the consequences of each missed day. Can you say huge pile of work that I can't see the bottom of?

Oh, and I feel better than yesterday. So is that from the sunshine, or from the 1/2 glass of wine last night?

H&B

Sounds like the only reasonable thing to do. Enjoy the remainder of YOUR DAY!

I want a chocolate martini right now. I have white crema de cacao. Hmm....

You could try this fish bowl type contraption.

oh my, isn't that something! bubble cat anyone?

**LBTC** · 03-08-2007, 07:21 PM

I guess it's better because it doesn't have any sharp edges!

heh

Well, we were wrong, and I feel bad about it, since the solution was right in front of us. Not my preferred option, but it is so far appearing as if it would have worked.

Got home today and he had chewed through all layers. His foot does not look good. We'll have to bring him back to the vet in the morning. Diva is going in for her teeth cleaning, so they can keep each other company I guess.

Well, it finally dawned on us that maybe if we drug him up with the demerol he'll stop wanting to chew it. Sure enough - it only takes a few minutes for the drugs to kick in and he's very relaxed, laying on the floor, not interested in licking the darned foot anymore. Now why did we not try this sooner????

Dang!

Anyway, hopefully he hasn't done so much damage that he'll have to lose his toe. I guess we'll find out tomorrow. Now it's cuddle time.

Hugs and stoned butterflies,

Oh, man. Ya know, if you just go ahead and do that to your cat, the neighbors call the animal cops and have you drug away. But if you buy something that is sold to do the exact same thing, now it's called therapeutic.

I love the pic of your dog Snap. Makes me want to go mix up a martini right now. Oh, and I agree, chocolate martinis are one of my favorite drinks. (hint, hint Dar - um, hold the hair please

)

LBTC - I'm so sorry to hear Cuda is liking the duct tape too. Duct tape is still our friend...

*points a finger* Shush Kit. I wasn't thinking that.

**Offthegrid** · 03-09-2007, 05:12 AM

Cool avatar, Xrayted (and Kit, too)

**Xrayted** · 03-09-2007, 05:51 PM

*X sneaks in* Bueller? Bueller?

oh, there he is... c'mon, ya know ya wanna twist and shout

**KnottedYet** · 03-09-2007, 06:48 PM

Then there's the cute little story about the kids coming out of Ferris Beuller's Day Off going, "Hey, did you hear that song from that new band "The Beatles"?

snork.

Love those Urban Legends!

(oh, and the folks coming out of "Apollo 13" saying "why didn't they just send the space shuttle up for the astronauts?")

I used to have several books of those urban legend collections. Unfortunately I lost *custody* of them....

**mimitabby** · 03-09-2007, 07:39 PM

Well, Knot, it's not the same thing, but you can just go to Snopes.com
and they have a lot of them.

I love this song. It's probably one of my favourites. I can't decide which version I like best.

This one by Postal Service:

or this one by Iron and Wine:

EDIT: ok that last one's link has A$$ at the end. You'll have type it in manually. LOL...

I think I prefer the slower version, especially the harmonies.

I play it a little faster myself, somewhere between the two. Maybe I should put myself on Youtube someday. LOL...
