LOLCAT where are you? I am worried I remembered the ER discussion so I hope things are okay with her

[amycrows]

NS wth? What did you do? Tell us was there some crazy thing happen you do not want to admit? Were you and hubby doing something and you got twisted up or thrown off the bed? Hope laughing doesn't cause pain and I hope you feel better and everyone else in pain.

I need some help with is damn HORSE.. AKA Kodyac, she is hell bent to hurt the kitten..
I placed her on a choke chain and leash about 3 feet from the kitten WHILE I WAS HOLDING LEASH, and she was fine we did this a few times. Well then I place her (Kodyac) back in the family room and let the kitten run through the house FLIPPING dog knocked down the baby gate and tried to get the kitten YET AGAIN!!

How old is she & how solid is her obedience? Can she hold a sit stay?

Sounds like she knows to behave while you're watching, but needs a lesson in self-control. Put a long leash (15-20ft) on Kodyac as well as a regular leash. Get a helper to hold the end of the long leash preferably out of sight, while you walk her around on the short leash. Casually drop the leash & go to get the kitten. If she goes for the kitten, the helper tugs the end of the long leash. It should startle her - you're with the kitten, the leash is on the ground, who's tugging? What's going on?

It works great for dogs that like to take off if they see the leash dropped.

I've got a couple of other ideas if this doesn't do the trick. Let me know.

Are any of your pets acting a bit weird since your kitty died? Except for wanting to eat each other, I mean. Kodyac might be associating weird stress with the kitten. Also, are you sure she's not just trying to play (albeit roughly) with the kitten? Does she stare at the kitten, are her ears stiff, does she wag her tail? She might just be confused about how to deal with the kitten.

Hope this helps.

Am back from cystoscopy, and I am never doing that again, I dont know if was doc, or if was supposed to hurt that bad. But man it hurt, then docs telling me to calm down, which just ticked me off. Hurt so bad now, now I am going to eat a toblerone and relax

Hope the Toblerone helped. Maybe a hot chocolate with a couple (of hundred) drops of Kahlua to go with it?

The catheter they put in me hurt so very bad and the nurses and drs all told me that they don't hurt like that but it sure as hell did and the ones they replaced it with hurt just as bad.

Went to the dr today for my shot and labs but the nurse was concerned over my bruising and pain which is quite a bit worse today. Can't touch my ribs on the left, my left shoulder or my left side by the hip area, hurts like fire. Some of the pain could be from the weather changing though, went from warm weather to cold and getting some bad thunder storms today and tomorrow with flood warnings.

Hope you're feeling better. I know with me, the first day, it doesn't hurt that much; the second day, ouch; the third day's the charm when I want to start removing injured body parts.

I'm so sorry you had so much pain; easy for the doc to say calm down - he should be on the receiving end! Enjoy your toblerone, you deserve it!


A few years ago, I had a plantar's wart removed from the ball of my foot - to make it even more painful, the specialist gave me an injection of liquid something to kill any possible roots. OMG was so
painfull that I screamed at the top of my lungs. A nurse came in saying people were leaving the office because of my screams.
He was telling me to stop screaming so I told him I would if he allowed me to give him an injection. The hole was so huge and wouldn't heal & I had to return to his office. The nurse said "Oh no, I remember you" LOL

You gotta love when they tell you to stop, I had a dentist once I dont take freezing well, he gave me 4 shots in the mouth and started instantly didnt wait. I was screaming bloody murder, i remember leaving the office and my parents were like you have no idea how fast this office emptied..lol...that must have hurt bad though on the bottom of foot

Am feeling a bit better now, just dont like to be told to calm down, when I am in pain, they have no idea what a person can take or not. Glad I had supper going in crockpot, did tangy beef sandwiches was very good and the toblerone was yummy too..lol

A few years back the incision from my operation (appendix complications - long story for another day) got infected. I was in pain, so I went straight to the surgeon (the one that stopped me on the way into the OR as I was dazed and told me all the things that might go wrong). Well, she took one look at the incision, said it was infected & proceeded to slice it open with a scalpel. Then she stuck her finger into the hole & dug around. Did I mention that she neglected to give me anaesthetic? There I am, gritting my teeth, when she patches me up & says I can go.

As I'm getting dressed, she says, "I'm surprised you were so quiet. Most of my patients would have screamed."

I swear some people are soo clueless.

If this is day 2, watch out for day 3 - that's my usual pattern. Day 1, a bit sore; day 2, lots of pain, but somehow manageable; day 3, I want to start removing injured body parts.

Eeek, now I'm the one double posting. Help!!!

[Andit]

btw, no one wondered where i was. i'm sad. well, i'll tell you anyway.

Hey, I just figured you were out painting the town red or burgundy or crimson or....

You've got to have a more exciting life than me, I'm lucky if I can paint the curb in front of my home pink.

Hope you're feeling better.

anyone live in TO and want to house an actor for a few months LOL
some feature film wants extras to be in it $100-$250 a day but I live two and a half hours from Toronto *sigh* wonder if they would find housing for us or if I would have to live in a hotel for 3 months LOL

Sorry, Rose, the only spare bed I have belongs to the dog. Of course, if you don't mind 50lbs of liver breath lying on you all night long...

As for housing, they usually only pay a daily/hourly rate for extras. Housing is up to you.

When is the shoot? You might be able to find decent student housing if it's after the school year (university exams usually end in April & summer courses don't start til June/July).

Just a heads up - even if it's a 3 month shoot, you might not actually work all that time. I was an extra on one flick & worked a total of 5 days in 4 weeks.

You probably should look into moving to Toronto eventually, though. At the very least, you'll need to find an agent.

Had any luck working on those head shots?

Unfortunately, all my contacts from that world have moved on (it's been a decade since I did that).

Let me know if you make it to Toronto - I'll show you a few places to go for cheap food & cheap thrills.

Oh that sounds so neat Rose sure hope it pans out to be doable. Your definitely not old and just think all those things you mentioned your friends are doing, the pregnant ones, married etc..who needs that at 19! Take it from me I got married and preg. at 17 love my kids dearly and we're really close I think partly cuz I was so young but it's not something I'd recommend at 19, would of loved to have done some things before having kids. Like had parts in movies or shows like grease. Have a blast and enjoy your time at home with your parents there are so many stresses you don't have that you would if you had your own place. What is the Jeffree star at the bottom near your sig that says search and win, is it a good site for getting things?

the search and win thing rocks have gotten a guitar pick and $20 in amazon giftcards in a month

LOL well it beats sardine(sp?) breath at least
I figured housing would be up to me and ya it was $100-$250 a day for extras, I think it said it was in april so i would probably be able to get something student housing wise, am going to just wait till they call and give me more info not going to get hopes up would love to do it just not sure if i would be making money or losing money LOL it is TO after all and it is expensive...and I do want to move there eventually thats what I am saving up for by working here first for a bit want to know that I can be ok for at least a few months of living without work there since I really cant go to job interviews there I live almost 3 hours away so I would have to move, figure out my way around TO then look for work...

and yes if I ever do get to work on something down there I want the cheap thrills!

I just got my Wii hooked up today...what a lot of fun it is ...I love it

I got the Wii console and of course the wii sport pkg that comes with and I also got a Wii play and Wii fit with balance board and Wii super mario for christmas
it will be a long time before I get bored again ..what fun

Have fun with your Wii.

I got home from Christmas at my parents and our Wii is not working. Looks like there was a power burst while we were gone and it fried the Wii. I have to call and find out where to send it to get it fixed, still under warrenty so that is good, but we got 4 new games and can't play them now.

[smb127]

Rose Rose Rose. I wish I as OLD as you. LOL You have so much time to find the love of your life, don't settle for anything less. Just wait you will find someone. Once you are famous the guys will be coming out of the woodwork for you.

I know you want a good job and one that you enjoy, but in the mean time have you thought of working at er, how do I say this. Well one of the fast food places? You could probably get a manager position if you tried. I know are here the big M is always looking for people and they will let you pick your hours. Just a thought, the way I look at it is there money is just as good as anywhere else.

If i still lived in TO I would let you have the spare room. If you ever get something in the Ottawa area let me know. I live 45 mins out of town, but I work in Ottawa.

Haunish - so sorry that it hurt. Some people have higher/lower pain thresh holds than others. All 3 times I broke a bone all I said was ouch.

NS - I started playing on Winnster last week. My player name is the same as here smb127. I play the slots.

I can't remember what else I wanted to say. Memory loss is starting. Did anyone elso noticie that they are forgetting more? Once I hit 42 things really started to change.

The cold is getting better, of course I am going for my yearly today, why wouldn't I be getting better. LOL I was bad though, I forgot to book my mammy before Chrsitmas and I don't get in until the end of the month. I think the doctor wanted to see the results for today. LOL Well at least I got my blood work done. ME BAD. I have had the paper since the begining on November.

So I should do some work, I have to leave at 10:30 for my appointment, and depending on the time I may or may not be back to work.
