Cancer Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 He's young, 2-3 years, I think. It's definitely obstruction. The only thing left to try is surgery, altering his plumbing in ways that will make everyone be squicked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemming Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 None of our cats have had the surgery, but I know plenty that have had it done. Most have to be on a diet for low crystals afterwards (which is usually the first thing to try before surgery) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 On a personal crank thing, last year the idea was to do a character a month on the Champions forum. Only for the board crash to take it down and render the whole thing more or less null and void. I had also hoped to get to the target of 200 received commissions for the year. I'm still 8 shy now. Which shows that no plan survives contact with the enemy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemming Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Wow. Only eight short isn't bad. I had goals last year which I think I got one done of... Too much reliance on others and getting depressed over stuff I no longer have a part of. Back at the sanctuary, I had worked with one particular cat and had gotten him to a pretty good point. After I left, I still came back and worked with him. Taking him for walks and just keeping him engaged. New management then came down hard on me because of stuff I'm a little unclear why. To continue working with this cat, I wound up having to go thru "volunteer training", which was funny since I had written up some of the guidelines. And I hopped thru a bunch of different hoops, and then got told I couldn't actually work with the cat. I could still visit him and at least I'm friends with one of the people that still works with him.It's just annoying when I see a story about how much progress he has made in the last three years celebrating something "he never has experienced before", when I used to do that with him all the time.

Old Man Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 The Sochi Figure Skating Championships are only a month away. I hear there might be some other winter sports played around the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 The other sports are a lie. So is honest judging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrosshairCollie Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Yet another attempt at a graft installation coming up at the end of the month. I'm not placing any bets on whether or not it's going to work this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkdguy Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 One of my favorite hobby shops is closing, after being in operation for 68 years. For those of you who live in San Francisco, the store is Franciscan Hobbies. The last day is on the 31st of this month, but a lot of stuff has already been sold out. So if you frequent that shop, be sure to stop by one last time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermit Posted January 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 The year from Hell continues after all. (Actually, well over a year and a half, coming on two ?) I swear, if I weren't such a coward I'd live up to my handle entirely and go create a new life on some other part of the globe. And no, there's not much I can talk about...part of what makes it so damn frustrating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 I hear you barking. Were it not for the kids I'd have blown up my life years ago and started over, elsewhere, with a clean sheet of paper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermit Posted January 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 What really gets me is that this was supposedly the 'safe month'. Hell, Its why I figured I could run a superdraft. Even then, I decided to make sure we kept going on weekends too to 'finish it up before anything could go wrong'. More fool I. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

death tribble Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Tried to go past a slow moving couple and fell flat on my face. One leg skinned, banged my jaw on the road and dignity gone south. Ouch ! The couple actuially turned back because of the racket my impact made and ensured I was ok before they went on which was nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
