Moderator: Orlion
I hope not!!
I feel like I'm home. Back from Europe, getting caught up on the little bits that piled up while I was away. This includes all the KW posts I missed.
Sorta ran myself ragged in London and Wales and Oxford -- which was not the plan, but there was so much great stuff to see and ... well, you know. I took pictures like a madwoman. And after being a total Culture Vulture for two weeks, I got a nifty little pop bonus at the end: tickets to an advance screening of the BBC Doctor Who spinoff Torchwood, the night before I left. It was GREAT. 
Glad to see everybody posting and KW-ing. It gives me the fuzzies.
And Luci, I'm so sorry about Churchill's health. It's dreadful when a loved kitty goes on the decline. Much hugs to you.

the rue of the melody could not be mistaken
once again i thank you all for all your well wishes and thoughts.
it means so very much to me to have you all wishing the old guy well.
i went to vet this morning to learn how to inject subcutaneous fluids.
got the stick right on the first try. it seems i am a natural with a needle.
who knew!
Church is a bit more lively today. he really enjoys going out into the world. he rides in his soft carrier with his little head poked out of the top so he can survey his surroundings. he ate a bit of food this morning and requested a burger treat when we got home from the vet so i gave him his raw ground sirloin. he ate most of a couple of ounces.
thank again for all you kind well wishes.

cause... i'm from Kentucky
and that's not what we brag about.

Aww, Luci, Churchy is beautiful! Hope he continues on the mend!
I am *tired* today. And no illegal substances were involved (darn the luck!). Drove to Roanoke with Younger Daughter on Thursday for Family Weekend at Batty's school; on Friday, drove to Staunton to see The Scottish Play at the Blackfriars Theater (a class assignment for Batty, and we decided we wanted to see the play too), then drove home; attended a memorial service Saturday for the head librarian at the girls' high school -- both have/had been library assistants throughout high school, and while they knew she was dying (she'd been fighting cancer for several years), it was still tough; drove back to Roanoke after the service Saturday night; spent a mostly sleepless night in a tent Saturday night (too much caffeine!); heard Batty's choir perform at chapel yesterday morning; then drove home. It's about 3.5 or 4 hours one-way to Roanoke. So I'm pretty tired. I almost stayed home today....

I've been sick for the better part of 2 weeks, and although all tests are negative, I'm certain that I have influenza, and let me tell you, this year's strain is ROUGH. Saturday morning I spent over 4 hours in the emergency room getting IV fluids, and I've been in bed pretty much since then.
Get your flu shots this year, folks!

And if you sweat heaps and get cramps you can try eating some salt.
Went fishing out in the Bay today....
I'm sunburned, windburned, still cold, and have that woozy been-drinkin'-all-day feeling.

Feel better!!! I get my shot every year because I have asthma. Last year my doctor ran out, so employee health gave me a shot left over after all the patients got one.
And Luci - your cat is one handsome and snuggly looking kitty!
Love as thou wilt.
