I forgot JK was a crazy cat lady

You'd be much better off saying that if she's on the way out you don't want to prolong her suffering and it might be time to put her down. You'll at least come off as compassionate that way.
Hiked in the Bridger mtns this morning. Three miles in 3k foot elevation gain. Trail was super Rocky and rough, but the pay off was scouting an area that we found perfect for mule deer and Franklin's grouse.
Nice and secluded with little evidence of people. Definitely a hike in the night before area.
Lil pre season stalk on this girl, got to 25 yards before she moved off. Hour later she was still in the same area.

This reminds me to bum a cigarette from a smoker to carry in my pack just for such occasions. If you moisten some of the tobacco and place it on the sting with a band-aid, the nicotine will neutralize the toxin and reduce swelling. Something my grandmother showed me when I was little.
What Tim says here. She looks miserable and has looked that way for months. She can't even jump on the couch now. The last time we went to the vet, the 'solution' lasted a month. She's dying, but Wifey just won't accept it.
Sounds like you need an old skool no-nonsense vet. Let me know if you need the name of one...
We have one. Her daughter is Haley's best friend. Wifey just doesn't want to hear it.
Ugh... this is how our cat went. Found her under the bed, not dead yet, but clearly under severe medical duress. Had I found a person in that condition they'd have left in an ambulance. That was shitty.Don't worry - eventually it'll die under your bed. Hopefully YOU find the body and not the wife. Don't ask me how I know this.
Yeah. I was fortunate that the cat had died by the time I went up there...
Today was the worst fucking Monday ever, I'm supposed to be a short timer and it is Wednesday!

Went to our version of the DMV to renew my driver's license and my health card. Kind of a hassle, but at least it only happens once every ten years.
Had a good ride this morning. Was supposed to be testing a Salsa Redpoint, but the rear tire was pooched so I couldn't try it out. Swung by the shop, and the owner let me pick out a new tire. DHR II it is then! (none of the schwalbe crap).
Brought the boys to soccer.
Not the most productive day, but a good day nonetheless.

Haha you're like my brother. Lets go to the most remote place possible and kill large animals... It will be fun said Jim never...
You spelled twerking wrong.6:19pm ... still working
Rode this evening, 2 1/2 hours of a not so great social ride - too much of fire roads and double track and no good rhythm. I am quite exhausted. Now gonna figure out dinner.
Bike has been serviced. Blue stuff put in shock. All cleaned up and ready to rock. Used up pads replaced with not so used up pads. Battery charged. Parts from Cygo arrived via mail.
You put blue stuff in shocks?
Sweet, your day is marginally more sucky than mine.6:19pm ... still working
Taco Tues...
Wait. It's Wednesday, no?

Sounds like diabetes. Pretty common in cats. They are true carnivores are are adapted to a pure meat diet, then we go and feed them carbs. Kidneys go nuts trying to filter out all the extra sugar in their blood. They piss in great quantities and have issues controlling it. They slowly starve because they piss out all their calories. A change in diet to pretty much pure protein can help.
From a pillow pack Seals seemed fine....
9:15. Done.6:19pm ... still working
FTS
IT sent out a VPN update to remote people, which promptly uninstalled the VPN before installing the new version, which naturally couldn't be installed because I was no longer on my VPN. I lost 90 minutes to that.
So, I LOVE my fucking new bike. Was cleaning things I normally don't. Did a 20 mile, 2500 ft ride. Few things...32/50 fucking ROCKS. I didn't even fall over! The bike is harder to wheelie, but I think I just need more time on it. Ideally it could be 5mm or so shorter,but I'll take it for the DH stability. If I lived back east or in St. George (lots of punchy up and overs/ledges) it might not be just the right bike for my arm length.
I don't absolutely love the Float 36...yet. I haven't really messed with it. I'll spend this season on it though, and see how it goes. I still kinda want a Pike dual air. TBD...
That's all for now...

Interesting... I'll bring that up with the vet on Friday.
Nice!. I think you are experiencing the same issue I was having with the Fox. It just doesn't quite feel right. Can't place it, but just not quite right.So, I LOVE my fucking new bike.
