I had a harness on Amelia when she was a kitten just because she was so wiggly I could never get a handle on her if I needed to take her to the vet. I tried putting a leash on her a few times but that went no where! Kudos to those people who can leash train a cat because I've never been able to!

Yeah, I saved all the prompts as well. They required a bit more insight into myself than I felt capable of and still don't feel capable of. I'm glad you find it helpful. I wonder if my cousins who just lost their college-aged son would appreciate a link to the site or if that would be overstepping.

Granny2 comes up, says okay, nobodys sitting on it. Now both kids are screaming.

Granny 3 comes up, reasons with older sib to let younger have a turn. Winner!

So obviously, im the most neurotic in our smoke alarm scenario. "Forgot" to mention that it had given a warning beep the week before that i totally ignored.

Eta - re being "cured" - eh, its relative!

Mandarin to Aramaic. I have no idea what you are talking about. But I do give you kudos for ignoring the alarm for that long. The beeping makes me crazy because it seems random to my ears.

Why do you always get to be the most neurotic?

Mine gave a couple beeps last week, which I ignored on the way out the door to clean out my office. It wasn’t beeping when I got home that day, so I forgot about it.

Thanks SD but i dont deserve kudos. I need for Cher to slap me and tell me to snap out of it!

Sorry @@ - just lucky, i guess!

In exhankster's world - you could take turns being the most neurotic. I think that was the moral of the story -but I am not certain.

I didn’t even understand the context for the story. I just seized on the one line that made sense.

Ya know, it takes a genius to see a connection between things where there wasnt one before. Thats how discoveries are made, and inventions invented.

Theres gotta be a pony in here somewhere!*

I worry about you. And I don't understand a word you say.

somebody's putting masks on statues here where I live. there's a mcdonald's that has a giant t-rex next to their building (for some reason?) and it's got a huge mask on it now. i need to go take a pic of it next time i go grocery shopping.

unaluna · May 19, 2020 at 05:54 PM

Our Spirit of Detroit has a mask. I saw it on tv yesterday.

Like masks you can wear while eating?

Really not something I'd wear on a date.

Stupid things like this make me not want to wear a mask.
When you ride alone, you ride with Hitler. 1-A in the army and A-1 in my heart. Praise the lord and pass the ammunition.
This sort of propaganda manipulation irks me almost as much as when therapists do it. Even though I do like most music from the 40s

Somebody keeps taking it down. I cant tell whose side its on!

That auto mask could work for compulsive eaters, tho. Literally a clockwork orange!
