Last week The Prof’s car started making some truly formidible noises, so he ran it in to the local service shop. There was a problem with the belts, and because of the way his car is put together it would have been a $1,000 plus job to fix everything correctly. He elected to have the…
I love frogs! These little frogs are grass-green colored, usually with a creamy colored line running from the jaw along the flanks. Males make a really loud noise thats a bit like quacking, which is sometimes known as a “rain call” because they tend to make a lot of noise before rains, but which can…
Try matching up with four simultaneously, Slipperperson! I hate tequila. And I’m not supposed to add salt to anything. Which drink are you? I don’t wear glasses. Well, not full time, anyhow. Take The Scooby-Doo Test! I’ve never even heard of Kellis (but maybe I ought to do some investigating). Take The Mu$ic Biz Whore…
Temple Grandin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We’re talking a severe case of hero worship here. I nearly froze up; didn’t know what to say. I needed to schedule her to come to our company. We want to get her input on ways to improve how we handle the animals that come through here. She has single-handedly changed the way…
Is it me, or are there fewer and fewer hours in each day? It’s getting to the point where I’ll have to give up a few non-essentials like eating and sleeping to get everything done. I had to go back to work after the doctor’s appointment yesterday to make up as much time as I…
THE GOOD NEWS: The lump is just a sebacious cyst. Granted, it got large quickly, but it isn’t infected (which is why there was never any pain connected with it). We just keep an eye on it. It will probably be as active as Clueless Wonder on a slow day (i.e. it’s just going to…
For some reason, it hasn’t bothered me until just now. But I’m cleaning up my desk now, getting ready to head to the doctor’s to get this lump on my back checked out, and suddenly I’m nervous about it. As if anything is going to get in the way of this charmed life of mine….
OK, the trend stops here. I’m not sure I agree with this assessment, but the important thing is Slipperman will definitely NOT get the same color I got. No way, no sir, no how. Didn’t I take this one before some time ago???? Red: 7/100 Blue: 25/100 White: 12/100 Yellow: 1/100 Take the Color Code…
What the heck is wrong with me? I’m getting thin skinned and edgey again, and taking offense at things that aren’t worth the calorie expenditure. On a forum yesterday, run by a friend in cyberspace, I encountered a person who personified the reason I don’t want to do private practice. Let’s call her CanineExpert. (My…
I’m in the process of furniture shopping. I’ve been disappointed in everything I’ve looked at so far – either the furniture is designed for giants and terribly uncomfortable, or the fabrics available are hideous (and totally inappropriate for a household with black and white kitties). The Professor says he’s happy to let me pick, since…
