Lounging By The Beach - Part 6

[Sundrinkr]

Dawwww, so so cute!!


Yes, I will take Grover to the vet tomorrow. I even considered taking him to the emergency vet tonight. But I have to work and I don't want to push that off on DH. I told him to keep a close watch on him tonight and take him in if he thinks he is getting worse. He (Grover, not DH ) is hiding in the closet now

Yeah, I try to avoid our emergency clinic if possible. I've never come out of there for less than 500.00 and by the time its over it is usually a couple of thousand.

..... He (Grover, not DH ) is hiding in the closet now

We used to give our cats a box or laundry basket with a towel in it when they weren't feeling well. They like the quiet and enclosed spaces. I think it soothes them...

At least you got a seat . . .
...
and you weren't seated next to this guy . . .
...
Too bad you weren't on this train . . .
...
But you're back home now, and all is back to normal . . .
...
Welcome Home!

Thanks for that! ....and luckily I don't have to ride the Harlem Line...that's the Metro North train that derails regularly

And I've had the same thought as you, Stone, r/t BT and legislation. njoy and Blu already owned by BT, right? And others are making their own. It would seem counterproductive for them to try to ban them.

Yes, and now Altria will sell the "Mark Ten" this year...

I can only relate what my impressions were. There are tons of ANTZ here where I am, and I was only reminded of it more since I recently left. We are basically ostracized here in NY....booooo!!

 

[100%VG]

I don't know much about your area at all, so I can't speak for people down there...At our local city council meetings, it seemed to be more ANTZ at work more than anything else. The people who were allowed to speak repeated the same misinfo that we always hear about...e-cigs are after our children, it's just as bad as smoking, there's antifreeze in it, there's poison in it, etc. That's what I saw at the one meeting I attended, and I read the same in some of my local papers.

To me it just doesn't make sense that BT is behind all of that when they're getting into the market. I'm sure it's possible, but that wasn't my impression.


EDIT: It also doesn't help that the NY Times keeps running opinion pieces instead of educational journalism that presents the majority of the vetted research. The Times and other well-regarded (meaning often quoted) news outlets keep repeating the same from the same, old, out-dated, and disproven "studies." It's maddening! At least the piece linked here gives both sides of the discussion a voice, however...that doesn't often happen in the larger media outlets, so I guess that is some sign of progress...

Sorry for ranting on a fun thread...

I think we all rant about This topic. I asked councilman what were the dates of any documentation he had been presented, and told him that anything older than late 2013 and 2014 was outdated. I told him there was medical and scientific evidence showing that e-cigs were practically harmless to users, and even less harmful to bystanders... No secondhand effects. I told him I could provide links to all of that. Plus links to other actual research showing the claims of the ANTZ were false.

VG - Here's the babies...

Aren't they sweet?

They are Precious!!! And their eyes are open. I wish you all the best with them. I so wish I could take one. I'd really like to have one from the youngest you can accept one. They learn everything from you that way. No bad habits that you didn't start yourself... and I've learned about some things not to start or encourage. I love Cadeau for so many reasons, and playing fetch is a big one. But I hope my next cat will be very young. She was about 6 months when I found her.

That probably means he isn't feeling well. So sorry, Tink.

Then hopefully they'll step up to bat and start backing us soon!!!

I was going to say something like that.

Tink,

I hope it can wait until Monday!!!

Exactly. For some reason Grover picks weekends to need the vet

And this reminded me that the last time I had to take him to emergency vet was because of a urinary blockage. He has been on medicine and a special cat food for years to help with that. Now I'm wondering if he could be having this problem again. If so, it is a bit more of an emergency than just vomiting. I tried to feel if his bladder was full just now, but couldn't really tell. Any of you who pray, say a prayer for him, please. I will def get him to the vet tomorrow.

Added little Grover to my list.

Hi, VG.

Hiya, Glam. I wish you didn't have to get up to cook for the young'un.

hafta go. babies need heartbeat and inside my shirt to get warmer.

OH!!! OH!!! May I be next?!!!



Time for some maintenance . . .

I made some TFA Honeysuckle at 15% and I think I made it too strong. It tastes kinda burnt, even at lower power and I'm not getting much vapor, so I'm gonna mix some plain VG with Nic to cut it down to about 7.5% Honeysuckle and see. So far, I haven't found anything I like as even being close to replacing CRH. I still have plenty TFA CHR, and I have to mix more of that, too.


I'll be back soon. Teach yourselves to Juggle while I'm gone . . .

LOL, Stone.....I have done that many times. My favorite sninners (how do you like that word?) are Pepsi and popcorn or salsa and tortilla chips. Both great meals!

You know, we have posted Sun's cleavage here before......

 

[Glam]

But then the cats get accustomed to sleeping with certain clothing articles.

Wonder if he is a cat lover or a breast man?

Yup! Count me IN!!!

You know, we have posted Sun's cleavage here before......

She has two kittens this time . . .

But that's OK. I can wait my turn.

Sun, I'll rub your belly while I'm there.

Wonder if he is a cat lover or a breast man?

My bet is, he's the guy who envies that cat.

I taught myself to juggle from a book. It came with three bean-filled juggle balls that were the perfect size to land in your hands. These balls were round. This was ages ago when I lived in NOLA. My kids broke one of them one weekend that I had them. They felt bad about it and bought me another book and set of balls to replace the one they broke... the exact same book, but the balls were different. These balls are squared, and filled differently. They are more fully packed, and don't land in the hands the same. But learning to juggle really isn't all that hard.

I can't find that book and set of balls to post a link to. But I found this for Glam's new Senior's Strip Club Act...

I'll stand behind you and "give you a hand" (or two) while you get started. I know that I dropped the balls many times before I got them going good. I wouldn't want you to lose a boob behind a chair.
