Last week we had some training at work that was out of the ordinary. Usually training is a new sales technique or a marketing ‘how to think out of the box’ kind of thing. This one was a little different. The technique is called DiSC. The premise is that everyone has all four aspects as [...]

My friend Ken the Cat Hater said that if he read one more word about the cat, he’d delete my bookmark on his IE. So Ken, if you’re reading this, it’s your own fault, you were warned. Nyah. Kitty Update: The biopsy showed that she had Peritonitis. That’s probably the best among the options [...]

So many captions, so little time… In her defense, she was stoned on pain meds when I took this last night. That didn’t make it any less funny to watch her attempt to figure out why her eye wouldn’t open though. She tilted her head all different ways trying to get it worked out. I [...]

The vet was cautiously optomistic, but really pleased that kitty was up and around, eating a little, and using the litterbox. The vet wants to see her again Tuesday. I have a bunch of needleless syringes full of oral/liquid pain meds that should last 3-4 days (one every 8-12 hours), and some anti barf/get her [...]

The cat is at the vet recovering from emergency surgery to clear an intestine that looked very blocked on the xrays. Turned out that she had a two and a half inch section of intestine that was extremely inflamed/infected/icky, so they took that part out and sent it for biopsy along with a lymph node [...]

I worked from home for the rest of the day. The network shut down again about 7 PM, so I guess that was as good of a quitting time as any. My cat slept most of the afternoon. She’s still not energetic, but she’s following me from room to room. She smells like the vet [...]

I had planned to spend the evening catching up on my day job, but after spending 2 hours this afternoon, and then breaking for supper, someone who apparently loves me took down the both servers that I connect to, but not the VPN. So I’m still connected, but I can’t do anything. I can do [...]
