The Pet Thread

If by plague, you mean that deadening feeling you get all over. We just went through something like this at my house some weeks ago. And I still have that grating chest congestion and cough, which is driving me nuts! ... The wife took ill and while taking care of her, I got it, which had me off for a week and a half. That was followed by our son a week or so after we started feeling better, and he ended up being off a little over a week.

Not sure what the hell it was, but it's been running the gauntlet around here for a while now. ... Crazy ass weather isn't helping either! We went from having single digit weather for over a week, to having 60 and 70's, and then it just bounced from 20-30's to 60-70's for many weeks afterwards. Surprised everyone isn't sick.

Can't wait for Summer! And that's coming from a cold weather person!

isn't 20-30 degrees = summer?

similar circumstances here Dave, arctic weather then mild, then cold, i'm sure it's not helped and I don't think i've been poorly longer than about 3 days since I was a kid, i'm at work now but it's been almost 10 days since it actually started and I feel like it just want to go to bed all the time. Killer bug

In some places I suppose that very well could be.

Yeah Kaz, it's miserable feeling that way. And even more so when you're at work! I came back too still not feeling well, and every day I just wanted to go back home and rest. The days also seem much longer when you feel that way too. ... Sucks. - Hope you feel better soon. I pretty much drank Robitussin by the bottle, every 4 hours for over a week, just to try and keep it from getting it's claws in me too deep. But I also hate feeling medicated! I hardly ever take Advil or Aspirin, unless really needed.

summer is coming... *snooze*

Awww cute. They always find sun spots,

I never expected him to like the basket - I thought he'd like the "cubby hole" and the top tier (just above the light switch in the photo), but he spurns those two places completely

Gotta share my sister's instagram again. She had three new kittens yesterday (or rather, her sokoke female did...)

I just saw this on facebook just now, I thought they were chipmunks with their colouring, so cute!

they're adorbsable. And they will be just the right age when I come to visit this summer
