since i'm awake and all:

[verbminx]

here is the list of SASSY and UNSASSY for the last day or two:

SASSY

JBz - chocolate candies, similar to M&Ms with the flavorings of Jelly Belly jellybeans. The coffee flavor is particularly heavenly.

Burts Bees Lip Shimmer - this is the classic BB lip balm, peppermint oil and all, only it comes in a thin twisty stick, and has shimmer and a choice of six great colors. The colors are sheer but not wussy. I have a Kiehl's lip gloss, Golden Berry (which I always want to call Goldberry after Tom Bombadil's wife) which is wonderful, moisturizing, tastes great, has a pretty color - but the color is minimal and it has almost no staying power. The new BB stuff is more comparable to a cross between BB's lip balm and Clinique's Almost Lipstick. & it's only around $3.50 for a tube!

Nature's Miracle Pet Stain & Odor Remover - this stuff works.

UNSASSY

B-cat's Megacolon - this is a horrible ailment that leads the poor cat to occasional constipation. He is sick deluxe lately. It was bad enough that he threw up all over the place this morning (do you know how hard it is to wash cat vomit out of a red flokati rug?) but tonight something even stranger happened - he excreted (from the front? the back? i don't know!) a strange, slightly yellowish, clear but slightly milky liquid. Puddles and puddles of it, on the floor in front of my TV. It smells, mostly, like fresh blood, but it isn't blood. It smells a little like fresh poo, but only specific mucousy sick-cat poo that has a very specific smell of its own, unlike usual cat poo. The trouble is that my room smells like it! Nature's Miracle is helping, but it's going to take a few more rounds of it.

Kathy Griffin - celebrity parasite. are you a real celebrity or a person who messes with celebrities for material to use to make fun of them in your act?

Hanging in suspense - augh, just give me the job, already!

Nature's Miracle is the BEST for getting out pet shit, piss and vomit. Needless to say we use it a lot in this house.

Vile odors

I am living currently with my first cat. Actually, its my first cat that's lived more than a few months as I can't really erase the memory of my first kitten which died at the fangs of a local tomcat. Anyway, I am not a cat person. My dogs never made mistakes indoors... our cat is extremely fussy and if Josh doesn't clean the catbox for a day she starts pooping in the basement or under the altar (yeah, I love that one). She runs around all night chasing moths and rolling ball-bearings across the hardwood floor (why there are ball bearings on the floor is another story). I have concluded that cat owners must be cat lovers whereas dog owners can just get on with being people around whom dogs exist. Oh, as long as they run around a bit.

I know your poor cat's experience is atypical and a chronic condition rather than this mortal coil. But still. It freaks me out. Cat neurotics anonymous here I come.

Oh, and I love Burts Bees lip stuff too. I have one in the car and it zings slightly when you use it. I need another and another and another....
