Prius in the news.
Reality hits on road to hybrid heaven
I definitely have to look into that federal tax deduction for purchasing a Prius.
Between the car and my medical bills, this is going to be a complicated tax year.

End of my week long snit.
I think I’m pulling out of whatever attitude I’ve been copping for the last week. Someday I’ll get it through my head that it’s OK to simply be confrontational about something, and get it talked out. Like with the dishes. Do I tell the professor I’m getting pissed off? Noooooo, I just wash the dishes…

*grumble* I didn’t sleep well last night. No, let me amend that statement. I didn’t sleep last night. That’s a far more accurate way of phrasing it. The results show today. I’m inattentive, unproductive, and ornery. I’m also not hungry. Looks like a can of Ensure for dinner tonight. Joy. It gave me time to…

“Coolhand Luke”, said by the Man with No Eyes. I love that movie. I think I know what I’m going to look for next time it’s MY turn to choose at the video rental place.
The Other 364 Days
“The first of April is the day we remember what we are the other 364 days of the year.” – American humorist Mark Twain And Lord, what fools we mortals be! So far, there have been two successful April’s Fool’s jokes played on me. The first was to wake up to find my car covered…

Best laid plans of mice, men and Salamanders … I slept until nearly 12:30 again today and (sigh) no, I did not get my taxes done. Tomorrow for sure. I told the Socialist to shame me into it. I can’t let them go and chance not getting them done because I was hospitalized. We went…
I have to order my parents not to give any chocolate to the dogs this Christmas. They always insist that a few pieces won’t hurt them but they can do without it. We can give them something not dangerous instead.
The vets I worked told clients that they could use a buffered aspirin, but that’s been years ago.
Regarding the spam issue, yes, I know it validates my email address. I only do it is there is a disclaimer stating they will not give my address out. 99% of the time I block them, but even that is useless. It does give me abit of satisfication though…
I also warn my friends with dogs about the dangers of onions, not sure if and how they affect cats.
I always refer folks to http://www.doglogic.com for more tidbits.
Alli
Yup, onions, and to a lesser extent garlic, can give dogs and cats a potentially fatal blood disorder called Heinz body anemia. Some people advocate putting a little garlic powder on a dog’s or cat’s food if they won’t eat, to make it more enticing. It does work, and in small amounts can’t harm them. I’ve never felt good about that though, and resort to other tricks to get mine to eat.
Not that they need me to resort to any of those tricks very often!
I remember the first time I told Mrs. Teabags about chocolate being bad for dogs she didn’t believe me. We didn’t have internet or anything like that then, and it took forever to be able to find something to show I wasn’t pulling her leg.
Thanks for the pet care tips!
