STR posted:You know.... chocolate cream pie was my favorite pie. Until you came along, doc. In other news, a 9000 square foot house blew up about three miles from here in a gas explosion. Me and all of my neighbors were outside trying to figure out what the gently caress happened. Based on this old listing I'm gonna go with "insurance fraud."

"The explosion could be heard as far away as New Jersey." Aren't explosions and gunfire something you hear every minute or two in NJ? Don't chalk it up to fraud too quickly though (though this stuff happened in a pretty poor neighborhood.... multiple times... wound up with the entire neighborhood being put up in hotels for a few weeks, since both power and gas got shut off until a ton of gas mains got replaced over a ~3 week period). This is going on near me as well, though that's one of the wealthiest parts of Austin, and no deaths, so meh, hasn't made headlines. randomidiot fucked around with this message at 12:41 on Nov 5, 2018 |

I just wanna sleep.  GF is at work. Her cats are going loving apeshit. If I bring them out of the bedroom, they start destroying poo poo if I don't keep an eye on them (and keep a spray bottle handy). If I keep them in the bedroom, they literally jump on the door constantly and yowl for a few hours after she goes to work. Doesn't matter if I'm in the bedroom or not, one of them has severe separation anxiety. You'd expect this from kittens, but they're both 5. Both are very ill behaved in general.  I may wind up sleeping in the bedroom closet. Upside is it's a walk-in, and has power in there, so I can plug in a phone (for white noise) + a nightlight. The 2 times I've had bad migraines since moving, I hibernate in the closet (without a nightlight or phone). For fucks sake cats, I just want some sleep. It's my one day off for 2 weeks. I've been getting 3-4 hours of sleep a night for a couple of weeks. randomidiot fucked around with this message at 13:37 on Nov 5, 2018 |

Keep them out of your room and let them destroy poo poo who cares, getting sleep is more important. rear end in a top hat cats are the worst, it's why i haven't had a cat in years.

"My room" is the office, which is where my PC is. One of them loves the taste of copper (and AC power, apparently). Also, my home theater receiver is in the living room, along with a nice 4k TV. The one that loves wires is bad enough that everything gets split-loom tubing. Fucker has already destroyed 2 sets of cables to my nice headphones (when new, ~$300ish Sennheisers; thankfully purchased used on SA-Mart for $50, but replacement cables are a pain to get), several phone charging cables, and one optical cable from the TV to the receiver (plus a couple of HDMI cables). That's just since I moved here. And leaving them out is an rear end kicking waiting to happen. I generally love both dogs and cats. These cats need some steel-toed drop kicks though. The one that doesn't love wires has a love/hate with me; when he's in a good mood, he decides to become a neck scarf (sometimes with no warning, awesome when I'm wearing a rare band t-shirt ). The female cable chewer is generally really sweet, while the male is generally a dick toward me (loves everyone else, has slowly started liking me). Brother/sister.I miss my cat. He's living with GF's boss at the moment. The sort-of-upside is I have a key to her place (since I'm still paying for all of his food, litter, etc, and scooping his box regularly), so when ti's time to cut loose, I can get him back easily.

I don't get it, if your GF can have her cats in your place, why can't you? You're playing with fire, STR...I'd get out ASAP if I were you.

This is true. My wife and I went through a very turbulent time when we first moved in together (the house was cursed) and it nearly ended us. But we were stronger than that and have stood the test.

Not getting enough sleep will drive you more insane than you already are. Locking the cats in the bathroom with a litter box while you sleep sounds like a good idea. If they can't behave then oh well, small price to pay for your sanity.

Olympic Mathlete posted:I want a pet skunk What state do you live in? I can help you out if you want. I got skunk connections all over, lol. Hardest part is finding a good vet that has experience with them. You probably won't be able to get a baby this year since the season is pretty much over. I'd recommend a rescue first anyway as babies are a lot of work for the first year or so. PM me if you are serious, I can help with any questions you might have.

Might even get me to practice using my ‘babby’s first’ DSLR by taking pictures of my muddy and rusty suv’s. I’ve been sadly just using my camera on fully automatic mode like a point and shoot and wouldn’t mind seeing some tips and tricks for automotive photography. I’d really like to take pictures at some of the automotive events we get around here, like getting into the Lingenfelter collection when they open to the public once a year.
