      Slinky loves to show his affection with VIKING HEADBUTTS. He is a sweetie, but he is not a very smart cat. Or good at being cat.

      But he's cute and friendly, so it evens out.

        @silentsophia Our fluffdork cat is like that. We have taught her to headbonk-fistbump at this point, she's so down with the headbonk. Since she is more or less the Disney Princess of Cats, and is a fluffy doof, it is painfully d'aww-melt-worthy when we're all, "Tesla, fistbump!" and she headbonks knuckles with a squeaky little merry trill.

        Cats can be taught. Not to necessarily do anything useful, but they can be taught.

        Oh fucking well.

          Cats can be taught to do things they want to do. Really, like children. Or, well, most adults.

          I would rather VIKING HEADBUTT than my cat's tendency to want to lick my eyelids or mouth when he wants me to get up. Cats may be very good at training us.

            Yes, by all means, winter, go ahead and make me sick just when I have a major christmas gala with an opera company and a gig singing the National Anthem at a major sports venue coming up around the corner. I hate you too.

              ... I just had an elderly client on the phone. He kept calling me “ma’am” and at one point he said I “sure had a purdy voice.”

              I thought to myself, “Well, I could say my name and make this INFINITELY more awkward, or just take care of any questions and let him go.” I chose the latter. But people are sure going to be puzzled if he calls again and asks for the ‘lady with the purdy voice.’

                Either my toddler ate a googly eye at the parent-child class we went to yesterday (we did do a craft that had them but he wasn't interested and didn't even go near the art table) or his shit is winking at me. Either way, happy Wednesday to me!

                      I know it is in Humankind's nature to find patterns in things, but we have proven ourselves, time and again, to be better at reasoning than needing to SHOOT UP A PIZZA SHOP TRYING TO PROVE A CONSPIRACY. The unopolgetic nature of the people adding fuel to the fire makes me grit my teeth so hard that I fear they crack.

                      Fuck this world. These people need openly mocked or, better yet, ignored.

                        My entire office is sick. Well, about a third of our workforce is at home, and a couple of more are at work sniffling and coughing.

                        Our CEO was complaining this morning people are 'too sensitive' since we have a release next week. As a result one of the folks who didn't come in at first because he has a fever even felt he had to come to work since he couldn't get his VPN connection straight, so we got an even bigger share of the plague.

                        And the weekend is almost here. Dammit. I don't wanna spend it in bed.

                                Dang, my work says if you are sick, stay home. If someone complains that you seem sick, they'll send you home and often you'll get paid for it anyway.

                                I have a waggish sense of humor.

                                  I work with a lot of Slavic people at my job. I enjoy this. I especially enjoy the Polish lady whom, if you so much as sneeze at your desk, stalks you all over the office until she all but physically picks you up and places you on the sidewalk to make you go home. You must stay away for 3 days at minimum. Do not try to come back.

                                    Downside of my job. I work from home.

                                    I could take time off if I got someone to cover my hours, but as we have not even the most remote semblance of PTO... I try to avoid it since, y'know, got bills to pay.

                                    So I'm bundled up, sipping tea, and chugging along. At least I've got a day off tomorrow!

                                        @GangOfDolls Polish remedies are the best! They all involve alcohol, or good home cooking.

                                          I've been dealing with twice daily asthma attacks for the past few weeks. Up from the 'once every couple days' that I saw my doctor for at the end of October. I've got an inhaler I use twice daily, but I'm still having to use the emergency one. Often I wake up in the middle of the night to use it.

                                          I haven't had this much trouble breathing in about a decade. Gonna have to go in to the doc this week and see about a nebulizer or something.

                                          I hate asthma. I hate that feeling that I suck at the most basic of bodily functions.
