HATE weak internet connections - Aug 11

August

Cathlete
Gooooooood LAWWWWD!

The internet service that I'm borrowing from somebody in my building is totally irritating!! It was great the first day I was here, then weak, then I'd have to go out into the hallway to pick up a line, and then I totally couldn't get online....and now today it's really strong.

What is up with that?!

So I'm taking this opportunity to post.

I have a biggish gig tonight so I'm taking it easy while my friends bear with the heat. Today I brushed everybody's fur (while they were sleeping LOL) and for the first time, gave them some kitty toothpaste to lick off the kitty toothbrush. It was a big hit. Mooch even started chewing on the toothbrush to see if he could somehow squeeze out some more paste from somewhere LOL. Yoyo wanted more paste and went up to Chami who was licking her toothbrush and boy, did she get p'd off! She put both of her paws on top of Yoyo's head to stop him from getting any closer, and with the toothbrush sticking out of her mouth, she made her angry face and let out a really mean grrrrrrrrrdon't you freakin even THINK about taking my paste, Yoyo rrrrrrrrrRRRRRR! I wish I had had my camera handy.

All right. I'd better get.

Have a great weekend!


BECKY - I can see how Cleo, who is above toys, would also be way above baths LOL. I have no idea how baths are going to go over with these four. I get the feeling their not going to be thrilled...although yesterday when I took a shower, since my Mom's shower is one that is not in a tub (it's just a shower), I allowed them in the room and let them watch the water come out of the shower head. They were really interested in it, and kept their eye on the water movement. It was cute.

Congrats on further progress on your roof, and I hope you got some good sleep!

ROBIN - Luckily, I had two spare towels, so my friends don't have to share that either. So far all is going great! Hey, you must be on the road trip right now? I can't wait to hear about it!

DANA - I'm so glad that it's Ralphie's last dip! He must be excited! How cute to brush his teeth and give him baths. He must LOVE you! The squirrels are almost of age to take baths LOL. I'm already fairly scratched up just from playing with them...even though I do trim their nails!

Ooh, the photo is fantastic!! Your boys are so handsome. And Ralphie is a little nut darling! No more mites, yay!

ARISTA - 45 min of KPC leaving you sore does not mean that you are out of shape, sheeeesh! Good for you.

My friends are staying for a week and a half, so they'll leave a few days after your birthday. And LOL, yes, I am slave to my Nintendo DS Lite. With a pink poodle - gawd, you make it sound so froofy and cheesey! That poodle happens to be a very good hair stylist and the best in the village.

MICHELE - Wow, your DN is getting the royal treatment! Pirates! What's next!

>You think you're fat! Well, I'm fat AND I have high blood pressure! Let's see if you can top THAT! LMAO!

LMAO. Oh SHUSH!

I can't seem to find anyone who brushes their kitty's teeth..except for a guy I know here who says it's a cinch, thank you very much. Hmm. Well, I bought the tiny brushes, so I may as well continue to try.

How awful that must have been to have Johnny's two teeth pulled, poor guy. But that's great that he feels so much better and is in such a better mood.

>Post some squirrel pics, please!

LMAO! I'll see what I can do.

DIANE - That is truly incredible about your cat figuring out how to get into your bedroom. How cute. You should set up a camera and film her in action.

Congrats on finishing your project!

JEN - Thanks for the detail about brushing teeth and bathing. That dental story sounded awful. How could you have known it would affect your kitty like that? Urgh. I'm really going to try to give the brushing a shot.

And I'll try the bathing, too. Kinda scared. We'll see. How cute about CJ. My guys are medium hair, but I've been brushing them daily. I mostly do all the grooming I can while they um,...sleep. LOL.

SHELLEY -

>Sounds like those squirrels have stolen your heart

They've pretty much stolen the entire apartment LOL. There is no place sacred anymore. Like, I practically have to eat standing up if I want to keep my food to myself. I won't even tell you how hard it is to open up a can of cat food and divvy it up into four bowls balancing it on the microwave LOL.

All right. I'll talk to you guys later!

Hey August and everyone else!

A biggish gig, huh? Will you be singing? That's pretty cool.

I get it about the eating. I have two 60-ish lb dogs. Believe me, there's nothing like eating dinner every night while being stared at. You can almost hear the thought process "Oh, please, drop it, drop it, drop it....".: And when I'm getting their food ready, Sadie leaps down the kitchen sideways, going 'A-ROO-ROO-ROO'. I actually ended up trimming her tail last night, because it was ridiculous. It looked like she had a small Pekinese dog stuck to her butt.

Diane - our neighbours cat has figured out how to open doors, but they have the lever-type handles. Are yours actual knobs? Because if they are, that's a clever cat!

Okay, wish me luck. I'm going to try to forgo my list today and just wing it. I'm a bit scared:p
 
Michele - I just read last night's thread. Yes, I talked to Robin and she was at the RT. I actually called Emily and she passed the phone over. They were there with Beavs, Amy, Beth, Liann - all the OAL chicks! I told them I hated them all.:p

You bought your DN a gun? Oh, he'll be so thrilled! I have to come and visit you so your DH can take me to the firing range, since I didn't get to go when I visited Robin!
 
Hey haters! It is so hot here, I hate it. I didn't sleep but maybe 2 hours Thurs night and have no idea why. It was like when I went to lay down to sleep I all of a sudden was wide awake so needless to say I was a walking zombie by last night. I hadn't taken a rest day this week though I used last night as my day off. Today I have been running errands and normal Saturday stuff. I did Powerstrike 1 & 20 min butt/thigh w/o this morning & did B&G this evening.

Shelley- Yeah, I am still stuck in a rut with my eating but I have added in some Kashi cereal but have to limit on how often I buy it b/c I have no self control when it comes to cereal. Yeah, the air was costly but when it is 95+ air temp then w/ humidity around 105 I refuse to sweat like I was just running errands, I only want to be sweating like that when I'm in my workout clothes!

Arista- The cats in that picture is my dear CJ that I had for 10 years, she was my best friend & still miss her. The other is friend's of mine cat. They used to live on the other side of the duplex I lived in before buying my house so we'd pet sit for each other when we had to go out of town. I should post a picture of Storm & Sport sometime.

Hey Michele, August, Diane, Dana, Robin, Becky, Jennifer- Doing anything exciting this weekend? Oh, Robin is on the road trip isn't she? Has anyone heard from her?
 
Hello Haters.
How are you all doing?

Shelley-Love the poem from your last RT.

August-keep those cat sories coming, and post a picture too. Hope your internet connection improves.

The past few days for me, I got home late Friday night to find the guys working on ny porch. It looks and functions great. Today, I did a field day for a school, painted the porch, and got harrassed my some guys looking for business telling me the porch was done wrong. Then, I made the error of telling Dan (one of the guys) about it and he got upset too. All I wanted to do today is go to Lake MI and breathe but had to paint. Maybe, next weekend.

Hopefully, soon I can take pics of the house, my cats, and the new car in the next few weeks. Thank GOD, I have vacation in less than one month now.
