[11:10] * bregma resumes the daily grind [11:32] bregma: which grind? level, or work? [11:37] khoover, I'm hoping to become a level 10 employee [11:37] camping on bug lists [11:38] soon I'll have a boss encounter [14:56] Hey all [16:54] BBL ...shaggy lawn needs a haircut [18:44] dog is back from the vet's [18:44] he wasn;t broken before, but he's fixed now [18:45] I wish he'd stop staring at me with those hangdog eyes [18:48] "Why did you take me there? Don't you love me anymore? Am I a good dog now?" [18:55] I think likes the vet [18:55] especially getting his temperature taken [18:55] Heh [18:56] he gets pain meds, I think that's why he stares [18:57] he has nothing left to feel pain in [18:57] Old dog? [18:57] 6 months [18:58] I think they put him on meds 'cos his throat would hurt from the tubes [18:59] his howling has been subdued since he came home [18:59] Ah [18:59] I do not recommend having a hound as a companion if you do not like outdoor voice in doors [19:00] Yes, they do like to howl, especially bassets [19:01] this one is a mixed breed but the hound part is obvious [19:01] I went to the pound one day to see what was up and the next day I had this puppy [19:02] take my advice: there is nothing up at the pound, nothing, ever [19:02] The pound near us likes to have open house once a month or so, my gf likes to go look at the rabbits but not get any more since she already has three of them [19:03] do not look at the kittens, do not make eye contact with any of the animals [19:04] My cat is queen of the house and getting a bit old for me to bring back kittens to terrorize her :) [19:06] then you need to take extra precaution on each visit to the pound... it's like costco, it just seems to make sense when you're there it's not until you get home you realize you really don't need that 40 pound tank of helium [19:07] of course if costco sold kittens they'd come shrink-wrapped in threes [19:07] Yes, probably! My sister buys a lot of stuff there. [19:08] if she's looking to give away two kittens, you'll know why [19:08] * genii-around avoids the eye contact! [19:10] I have no problem with cat eye contact , not a bother at all, me and cats don't see eye to eye :) [19:13] I get along fine with cats ,as long as they belong to someone else [19:20] my kitteh is king of the block [19:20] he's about 2 years old - enormous - and has beaten every other cat in about a 200m radius in to submission [19:21] used to see lots of neighbourhood cats come by about a year ago when he was still wee [19:21] never see any on his turf now ;] [19:42] We used to have 2 cats here.. the one was a semi-feral male tabby, huge and boss of the block like that. He started wandering in all the time, we eventually gave him a name and started feeding him. [19:45] We called him George from that Bugs Bunny cartoon where the monster goes something like "I want to hug you and squeeze you, pet you and love you, and your name will be George"
