The site is in French, so I don’t know the history. A friend forwarded this to me. I will warn you that this is extremely upsetting to watch.
Just got home from the hospital last night. Diagnosis: Severe gastroenteritis of unknown bacterial cause, responsive to Amoxicillin; Cellulitis of unknown origin (probably related to gastroenteritis), also responsive to Amoxicillin. As The Prof says, the things I do to get attention. I was with Dr. Roo at our favorite meeting spot Saturday, getting ready to…
I was doing well before I was hospitalized, but I seem to have lost my drive since my discharge from Big City Hospital. I’ve only spent a handful of hours looking for a job. I have come to the point that I don’t know what I want to do anymore. I know what I don’t…
As in, “do, a deer, a female deer”. Interesting. I first typed that as “a femail dear”. I do believe that the synapses are starting to dissolve from all the rain. I took two days off this week and went to a town about an hour from here to see a Loreena McKennitt concert. It’s…
The sweet potato casserole is just something I kinda wing, I’m afraid. I don’t exactly have a recipe, but this is how I make it: I use a square 9″ X 9″ pyrex casserole dish, but I don’t think it matters what you use all that much. Ingredients: A bunch of sweet potatoes. I usually…
39. Field Behind the Plow â Stan Rogers This was written about the family farm, but it’s a story about pouring everything into a project with no guarantee of success. Nike’s “just do it” campaign becomes a shallow thing when you actually think about all the people in all the jobs across this world just…
I got a wonderful CD a few weeks ago with old TV themes on it. I’ve been putting it to a somewhat evil use, but I can’t help myself. I’ve been leaving some of the songs on coworkers’ voice mail before I leave at the end of the day. The songs are chosen to represent…
Yes. I cried.
Sadly enough I’ve seen something similar. Pardon me while I go into some history of my cat Dusty. Back in ’97 we had a very, very early hard freeze in late September. Ray called me late one afternoon saying that he’d found three kittens that weren’t more than 10 days old in the back of the shop (their eyes weren’t yet open). He’d seen a cat dead in the road by the shop earlier in the day. He called to ask if he could bring them home *rolls eyes*. Like I was going to say no?? Anyway, he got home with them about 15 minutes later. They were so cold they were stiff and their noses and mouths were packed full of dirt from them rooting on the floor trying to find food. We lost one of them almost immediately. The other two, Dusty (her full name is Dusty Q. Popsicle for the above stated reasons)and her sister beat the odds of cellular explosion from rewarming from the hypothermia and all was good for about two and a half weeks. I went in one morning to give them a bottle and saw Dusty kneeding and nuzzling her sister and I thought it was really cute until I got close enough to realize that her sister had passed away in the night. I really think she was trying to revive her and I suspect the cat in the video is doing the same. They probably had run together for years. It’s heartbreaking to watch.
