OK, as promised (though by now maybe the promise was forgotten??) I posted pics of the sassy new tri top... in my blog... not here, of course.  Sorry, Blake, I didn't get around to "rolling it up" so you'll just have to go to the abs album and pretend .

Edited cause I am tired and my original post didn't make much sense.

 

I like the top - so cool!

Hee hee, thanks!!!!  So much fun and the comments I got while wearing it were hilarious .



*grumble* still didn't roll it up...

I have a question for our resident vet .  I would ask my own vet but I won't see her for a scheduled appointment (knock on wood) for quite some time!!!

I have a ragdoll kitten... he's about 9 months old now... big boy who rules the roost, bosses both of my labs around and whatnot... got him because I heard he would be good to my allergies, and he is.  First animal I've ever had that I actually paid (a lot) of money for!!!!  He is sweet as could be in the morning and when he wants something and generally sweet to me... but he has an aggressive streak in him and is particularly fond of attacking my daughter's feet.  He bites the kids and sometimes visitors... but not terriobly hard.  I think he just wants to play... so we've upped the amount of play time for him.  I also use a spray bottle to keep him off of counters/tables, etc. but am not sure if this isthe best way to deal with this behavior.  His most redeeming quality is that he's gorgeous and has more personality than any cat I've ever known.  Aside from that, he's a bit of a monster .

Any thoughts would be very much appreciated!

 

Cat behaviour is a really tricky subject ... some kittens that are taken away from their litter too early can have the issues he has ... they didn't have long enough to be socilaised properly and learn bite inhibition from his litter mates. Alternatively he may just be a boisterous kitten. I would monitor him carefully and try to see at what point he starts attacking - it may be a case that he becomes over-stimulated after (eg) 5 mins, so in that case just play with him for 4 mins at a time. Also never use your hands to play with him, get him a dangly cat toy so your body parts are out of the line of fire. Any time he gets over stimulated just stop the game and walk away. If he is still naughty despite this, give him "time out" in another room. The spray bottle is a good idea - gets the message across without being cruel. You can also consider getting another kitten that will help to re-direct his attention - but sometimes this may be a rod for your own back as a second kitten can also create more problems. Good luck!!!

Thanks!  That all makes perfect sense .

Quick and dirty posts, as many as I can fit in before day shift comes in. Not bothering to post pad.

1) If you have an hour or two, read my blog. Had an AWESOME weekend.

2) Mila, you are the Queen of Evil Princesses - thank you for updating the spreadsheet!!!

2a) is the % Complete not cumulative? Cuz when I added in a run from week 1, it didn't change the % after week 2...

3) Going to OZ????!!!!! So jealous!! Need a jockstrapper? Personal valet?? General hanger-on??? Swim coach???? Bartender????

4) Erica, yet another BIG CONGRATS on your race! YAY!!!

5) Magda, awesome, awesome, awesome job on the play! More YAY!!!

6)

7) Blake, did you need my snail mail address for that invite, or are you doing e-vites? Just, you know, wonderin'.

8) Joe, congrats on the PB on the 5K. Nice to break a plateau.

9) Dude, there was more. Don't remember - took me too long to catch up, as I fell asleep part way through!

10) Oh yeah, Magda seems to have it pretty much right on the cat thing. Maybe she knows a little bit? Wouldn't trust her too far, but she's in the ballpark.

11) Um, er, who'd I leave out? bondgirl! I was gonna say something. Now I don't know what. And anyone else I left out, I plead extraordinary tiredness!

12) Wish me luck on the drive home. 20 minutes of fighting off sleep through deer-riddled fog.

ebshot - 2008-10-13 11:47 AM I need to update my Netflix queue.  Any good movie recommendations?  The kiddo's and I watched Ironman today.  Not bad.  Didn't know about the sex scene in the beginning. Awkward!!  Yikes! 


So Im curious... what do kids do when a sex scene comes on? How do you handle it??? 

The kids don't say much.  It was only my boys watching this one (5, 4) so they don't ask many questions.  I think if my daughter (7) was around she would have had something to say.  In this case, I said, "Eek!  Close your eyes!"  This is why I usually preview any movies that are PG-13.  Didn't in this case and it bit me in the behind!
