RITA'S CXLVII: Oh, if There’s an Original Thought Out There, I Could Use it Right Now

[Charles RB]

Hello, everyone.

I am going to go die now.

Make lots of dick jokes at my funeral, please.

What's up?

[snarkbunny]

I finished my penguin!

[Puma]

Very cool! That is a badass pengy.

Thanks, I'm pleased that he has an attitude. How was your Sunday?

[Spike-X]

I finished my penguin!

And a damn groovy lil' penguin it is, too.

[Puma]

Went to the beach but sadly it was windy. We bundled up and wandered the shore and watched the birds combat the wind.

How was your's?

Third attempt at putting a safety collar on the cat.

He vanished 4 hours ago and we haven't seen him. Methinks he's getting drunk at the local watering hole.

Sounds lovely. I spent it sanding and then waxing and polishing. It was a good day.

Collars are soo much fun if they haven;t been wearing them since kittenhood. And cats sulk so well. Is Thor microchipped?

Nope. Damn feline sulks like a champion. Dashed hither, tither and yon, jumping at shadows. He might be looking at us from a secret cubby hole and just smirking at our "cat calls".

Fight!

The Black Keys' Patrick Carney has changed his name to Justin Bieber on Twitter, as his feud with the singer continues.

Last week, Justin Bieber said that Carney needs 'slapping' after the drummer criticised his music at the Grammys. Carney reacted to the comment by changing his Twitter, and now claims to be Justin Bieber to antagonise the pop brat's fans.

Is it safe to assume this is about as sad as watching two grown men in a slap-fight?

[Donald M.]

Now that makes sense. Apparently a man in London upset that Rihanna is back together with Chris Brown, the man who assaulted her, told her of his displeasure by assaulting her.

He should've just waited a couple of months until Brownie does it again.

That sounds like a cat, lovely creatures but contrary.

The Toothless Wonder freaked out so much at a collar that she scratched her fur off trying to get the collar off, so I stick with the microchips.

Thanks, Spike for the nice comment on the penguin. How are you this Monday?

That is depressing, Donald. I counteract it with THIS:


How are you doing?

[Jared H.]

Regarding Squirrel:

She has a new client that involves a lot of lifting. I'm pretty sure she's exhausted.


I apparently slept for 13 hours straight today.

[Squirrel]

I thought you were having the best day ever yesterday? What's changed?

What's up, Squirrel?

What's up?

Oh, I'm still happy as all hell. I just waaaay overworked myself. Work last night was exhausting. The dogs wouldn't settle down so I didn't get any sleep, and I had to learn the procedure for giving meds, so this morning everything took forever and there was a huge mess to clean up. I got really dizzy at one point and almost passed out. Normally I finish everything with 10 or 15 minutes to spare, but I wasn't done when my relief arrived. Luckily one of my co-workers did my dishes for me. I had to sit down and rest for a few minutes before I could even go out to the car.

Then, after a few hours' sleep, I had to go a very physically demanding caregiver shift. Lots of lifting and no chance to sit down. My muscles are like jelly.

Also, my body is apparently extra-exhausted due to the unexpected visit from Aunt Flo...first such in years. Even after more sleep, I still feel like death warmed over.

And on top of all that, there's a decent chance that my celiac disease is coming out of remission. >.<
