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.

Don't go ripping on my bird. He's a total sweetie. He's just easily startled and takes him time to warm to people.

And he Meows better than the cat.

Oh, no. You have me all wrong. I'm very impressed with Bird. In fact, I was thinking that we should move him closer to the steps as a guard, to keep her from yowling at our door all night. We could put him up on the balcony, in fact!

Who needs a guard dog when you have an alarm bird? Parrots do a very good job of alerting their owners if there's an intruder.

And yes - I've heard the Bird meow. Impressive. I still sympathize with the Cat, though ;-)

He's a total sweetie.

I'm... uh... not entirely positive those are the exact words I would have used to describe your bird.

:D

C'mon, he LUVES getting the scritchies! He'll sidle up to the bars and say "Scritchie scritchy". He'll snuggle under my chin, and nibble my collar.

And he will do this for other people, if you take the time to get to know him. He's just not a slut who puts out for anyone the second he meets them (like the cat). ;)

Perhaps if her were in a more central location where he could "meet" folks easeir. I forget you even have a bird cause you hide it away! (Ignore that thornbury!)
