Is 11-year-old boy reicarnated WWII pilot? This is sort of unclear and boring at first, and then when you get about halfway through it, it's like "oh, well, yeah, that is a bit weird."

Did something really wanky happen on yuletide last night that the mods had to delete posts?

I'll add to this later. Have to bring the cat to the vet now. Oh cat. ETA: on cat -- she's getting fluids, blood and urine tests, a vitamin shot, her nails trimmed and x-rays. They think it's her liver. I'll know more later and yet more tomorrow.

Welsh rugby player comes out. [note: audio file, when I find a transcript, I'll link] This is slightly old news (a few days), but as you might imagine, if it's both about gay stuff and Wales, about 80-billion people link me to it. And it's good stuff. So hey! Also, in the land of shallow: I really do love the accent. (I do! Stop laughing!)

The holiday cards came. They look STUNNING. So those will start going out "soon."

OMG, Yuletide pinch hit while dealing with sick cat.

I watched Gattaca for the 80-billionth time last night. If you want to get me (or the lens through which I tend to view and get attracted to other media), watch that. No time to wax poetic about it today, but "I never saved anything for the way back." To think I once had a lover who said I only liked it because it was gay and well art directed; he was so afraid of me.

Los Alamos National Labs just accidentally blew up a building. I have the sudden urge to say that "dynamite is never the only option." Way to go, guys.

What's the matter with the cat?

I've got my own cat health drama here. Cosette has kidney issues, and for the past week, I've had to coax her to eat. Now, she'll only eat dry food if you put moist food on top of it. This is kind of unusual for her because she usually scarfs down whatever you put in front of her. The vet isn't too concerned because at least she's eating something. Also, the moist food is better for her with her kidney problems.

Oh well...I have to take her back in mid-January to have her kidney levels checked again anyway...

My cat has had kidney issues for three-and-a-half years now! The main problem she has from the kidneys is that calcium build-up on her teeth makes her mouth prone to infections, which makes her reluctant to eat. Get the vet to check her gum margins, cheeks and throat for infections. The medication has kept her kidney issues completely in check, but her mouth is an ongoing issue, even with teeth cleaning.
