You're not really an LJ'er until you post about your cat

The boys are doing better, and we didn't get what they had. At one point, I was afraid we'd have take Eddie to the ER for dehydration, but he *finally* accepted a juice box, when NOTHING else would make him happy.

However, daycare is still not on the list of things they are happy about.

Facebook is kinda fun, but I'm not sure why I signed up when I don't even have time for LJ...

I keep getting requests for little applications like pillow fights, best friends, celebrity death match and such. They're all from friends, but I don't really know what they are. If I click accept, it says that the app will import/take my profile info. Are these a security risk? Can anybody give me a short explanation? Please don't be offended if I don't accept these, at least not for now.

I had one of those recurring dreams the other night that I hadn't done my homework. Trouble is, I woke up, and I really *hadn't* done my homework. Eek! I also totally forgot about class last night until four o'clock in the afternoon. I could have easily let it slip my mind. Next think you know, I'll have forgotten my locker combo, shown up to school naked, and realized that it's time for my final in a class I didn't know I'd signed up for. Ai!

My cat is a little love slut. She's SO snuggly. She just wants to be ON your lap. Always. Well, except for when the boys are awake, and then she's usually down in the basement. She tolerates them reasonably well, having little to no experience with kids before. Henry is in LOVE with her. He's totally gentle and patient, too, so I have hope for them becoming friends.

My one concern before her arrival was her interaction with the bird. Cat was curious about bird. Cat went in bird's room. Bird not impressed with Cat. Bird squawked and flapped wings obnoxiously. Cat ran. Cat won't go anywhere near Bird's room.

If you've been over to our house, I'm guessing you'll sympathise with Cat. I needn't have worried.

I don't know about those Facebook apps either. I generally just ignore them. If people are offended by that, well, they haven't said so. :)

Kitty AWWWW.

Lady I worked with had a parrot and two cats. She would set the parrot down on the floor, and the parrot would walk around saying "HERE, kitty kitty kitty! HERE, kitty kitty! Kiss? *smooching noise* Kiss?" The cats PANICKED. They always treated this event as the arrival of Satan, and teleported out of the county whenever it happened. I think the bird is probably fine. :)

LOL, That is a riot! I would have loved to have witnessed the bird calling the cats!

Kali used to talk to birds. She'd sit in the window, and cacklet outside at them. Those were just outside birds, not cornered parrots, though. I had thought she'd take an interest.

Now, George (bird) will meow at us. He's never lived with a bird once, but Jeff had a friend who taught him how to meow. It's a bit weird.


Yeah. George is a parrot. A cranky parrot. And Kali is a little kitty.
