Still not back home to my computer, but had to drive home to take Vanessa into the vet (just for more asthma pills and a blood draw for her liver since she's on prednisone for a year now), so here's a picture of her sitting on the center console while we ride.



Always heard that cats hate car rides, but she seems to absolutely love them. She sits on the center armrest and watches the road, and when we stop at lights she jumps onto my lap and perforates my legs.

I was so proud; for some reason they did the blood draw from the underside of her neck, and no less than three people at the vet came in to tell me that she was one of the most kind-natured cats they had seen in a long time, and they didn't even have to hold her during the draw, she just let out a sad meow while the draw happened.

My pretty girl :3:

lol my girl is a little bit of a beast at the vet. as soon as the vet walks in her tail goes up in alert mode and there's usually some hissing. on the plus side its easy to see a cats teeth when they hiss

It's funny, because around my ancient pugs, she's a total dominatrix. She'll stick her claws up their rear end just for walking by... but around humans she's the most affectionate baby girl you'll ever meet. Not sure how I got so lucky for a cat that showed up in my barn one day. I'm a lucky man.

Stopped by the house/dog I'm sitting with her, and she took no time to run straight at their lahsa apso (I think), and claw her right in the side, but around people she's the most gentle creature this side of a turtle.

when my cats were kittens i had to take them on a plane from tenessee to texas and went to a vet ahead of time who gave me some kind of tranq. it wasn't ketamine, draxamoxamil or something. they each had like 1/4 pill 30min before and they were pretty knocked out for the flight.

lol don't people use ambien recreationally to trip balls (and then fall asleep and forget everything). I'd hate to be stuck in a car with a cat tripping balla

T+2:45 I’m remembering being a tree. The bathroom tiles are woodland creatures, and they’re talking to me. This is much like remembering being a tree and remembering beign a DJ.. The tiles arent creatures, but they have the feeling that they are creatures. Te best way to put it into words is that they are alive, and they have the personalities that squirrels and woodchucks would have if they were sentient. Each one of them was talking to me, telling me that I was helping them by being there. Eventually I left.
This was a rather uneventful trip since the novelty of trying a new substance wasn’t there. Discovering the entities in the bathroom tiles was the best part of the trip.

quote:

(T+ 00:25)I sat on the couch and cuddled my dog. These are the only two events I can report on with any chronological certainty. At one point in 'time', I remember hearing my girlfriend saying 'And now you're smoking, too?' This 'woke me up', and sure enough, I found myself sitting on the couch smoking a glass pipe. No recollection of packing it, lighting it, etc. As I surfaced into waking reality, I realized I was having a hard time breathing in the smoke. It was as if I couldn't inflate my lungs fully. It reminded me of the first time people try smoking, not quite having the hang of it yet. This is doubly strange, because, while I usually smoke one in the evening, I would not have consciously smoked after taking Ambien. I steer clear of drug combos. This is disturbing in that it seems I had no conscious control over my actions. (Upon further inspection of the pipe the next day, it seems I only took one hit from it.)

Another weird fragmented memory I recall--very dream-like, so not sure if it really happened--was of maybe getting into the bottle of Xanax. There's this image of having little pills of Xanax stuck to my face, and of licking them off, casually thinking 'It can't hurt me at this point.' I really do not know for sure if I actually took Xanax or not. It's absolutely not something I would do, but considering the pipe incident … it makes me wonder.

yeah, sounds like fun times for sure.

i've heard it's "valium" but it might just be "cat valium" which is something totally unrelated to people valium.

either way, tell your vet what's up and they'll give you a pill or two for almost nothing.

I think a lot of mammal pharmacology is very similar, but that's just trivial tidbit. An actual vet will know the specifics on how to not kill your pet with seizures.

Pepper used to be the sweetest thing with everybody until she had emergency surgery at an after-hours place for eating some hair ties. I don't think they were very nice to her, and ever since strangers have been insta-growl. She's gotten a lot better lately now that we take her outside and have more guests over, but the vet is not a happy place.

welp the robo litter box broke. it doesn't stop rotating until it's like 50% past where it's supposed to go and resets weirdly.

it's still under warranty, but i have to ship the base back which is gonna be a pain!

There's some sensors and poo poo in there that you can adjust. I've had to take the robot apart and clean it a few times and have had to recalibrate the step and stuff. Might be worth taking a look at before you go through the pain of shipping it

I feel as though the position sensor is the problem. how much of a bitch was taking it apart and reseating it? my gf freaked out at me trying to get to the position sensor, since i was "going to break it"

this sounds like one of those situations like the wiper stalk on my jeep, where they used that lovely white plastic for a gear or a pinion and it finally broke

do you hear any clicking or grinding or ratcheting type noise when it travels, or does it just stop at the wrong time

it sounds fine, except it keeps rotating past the catch on the back that causes the waste ports to open. so it opens the door and then causes the ball to rock because it's still pushing, and then it falls back in to place, keeps rotating 45 degrees. then it rotates back, but is like 45+ degrees short because it doesn't rotate back to the right place.

if i pick up the ball and put it back in to the right place, and hit Cycle it just does the same thing. also hitting the step doesn't make it stop while doing this anymore.
