We woke up to 36 degrees this morning.

So let's nip this in the bud.  Just stop that right now.  Okay?

Congratulations, Elmore.

In light of the Weinstein mess, A Secretary Is Not a Toy is all too relevant right now.

My colonoscopy results were good, but last night my dad, who died from colon cancer, visited me in a dream to tell me to stick with a limited red meat, fresh fruit and veggie diet.

Around midnight last night, Annabelle suddenly perked up and watched something.  I wonder if she saw the apartment ghost?

I'm not a person who's sensitive to those things, but I'm assured by others that pets - cats in particular - will absolutely see them.  We had one really weird incident about nine years ago when Kristi got a call early in the morning that her dad had passed away during the night.  (It had been expected for some time.)  We were all soon up, and they found Barrett, his cat whose picture I posted last week, totally freaked out, trembling and hiding.  After much coddling he finally calmed down, but she believed Barrett had had a visitation from her dad, who had loved that cat, or had seen him walking through the place.

And that's my campfire tale for the morning, kids!

Here's something else.  I was reluctant to do this at first, but do it I did.  We'd been told by a good friend some years back about this woman who communicates with pets -- who, in so doing, had greatly helped her through a couple of situations.  We decided to have a phone session with her about one of the cats in particular, and it was incredibly revealing.  Whether she was really picking up stuff from the cat, or from us, the things she talked about were specific and detailed and helpful.  Some years later this same friend (who's had lots of animals) came into contact with another woman (this one far out of state) who did likewise, but she was able to even more directly assist the animals through difficult times.  Spooky stuff, man.

I have asked for an application to adopt Archie.  The kibosh may be the kitten's FIV status.  I've inquired but I've received no answer.

There was a time cats with FIV could only go to homes with other FIV cats or no other cats at all.  Does having a cat with this status increase your vet bills & visitso?

DR Laura are you familiar with the current opinions on this?

Piano
Violins can be very nice too.
My least favorite is horns, although in the right music, they can be wonderful.

We'll celebrate the Vix's anniversary by taking Richard's computer to the Apple Store in Cincinnati to see why he's getting so many pop-up ads and the spinning beachball.  Here we are celebrating our 24th anniversary there in 2005:

That's still the case.  If Archie is FLV positive, I cannot adopt him.  He will infect Annabelle.

DR Elmore, I've passed your advice along to Richard and he will ask the Genius about it this afternoon.

Oh, so they have not established he is FLV.  I misunderstood.    I hope he isn't.
