Help. lol Guilty as charged lol Well, Cookie decided she didn't want to visit today so we'll be trying again for Monday. Maintenance came to fix the A.c in our room and then I went to bed (MUCH later than I had wanted) I overslept and woke up with my allergies still kicking my butt, so I skipped the party Once the eyes cleared up I got the rat cage done, bathed the rat bois, and prepped the puppy pads for subsequent cleanings (I have to cut them to fit the bottom of the cage) Now I'm eating and relaxing. I finished The Vampire Diaries and have started The Originals and then I may play Ark for a bit. Overall, not a bad day. Tomorrow I am hoping to get the rest of the cleaning besides laundry done so Monday I can relax before we go back to work. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 3, 2022 Yes, you are guilty. lol. Also so many new eggs dropped, and I only could grab one since I have like no space on my scroll. Darn my need for vampires yesterday. Sigh. Share this post Link to post

I've got 4 of the 6 two-heads, but misclicked on pygmies and am locked. I will abandon 2 of the pygmies later today to try for the last two variants. There seems to be a lot of negativity in the News thread about another large release so soon after the birthday release.

(thursday morning is trash day, so....) Share this post Link to post

And I actually just added a complaint, too, so I can't really talk too much! I am just so done with dragons that have muddled anatomy so you can't tell what is what head from tail! I have managed one of the 2-heads from each biome and two of the pygmies, so I am egg-locked for forever. Or that is how it feels, anyway! Good luck with all the mechanics of selling/buying/moving @trystan. It has been nearly 50 years since we have been through that! And we were buying our first house, so didn't have to worry about selling one! Share this post Link to post

(along with "Two Heads are Better than One") 12 minutes ago, purplehaze said: Good luck with all the mechanics of selling/buying/moving thanks! the easiest mechanics will be selling this one on the morning of Day 1 - with an option that we can rent the house from the buyers for a few days. then head out to Pgh (with all our stuff), buy the new house in the morning of Day 2. meanwhile the movers will meet us at the new place and unload the truck. if we can do it, we rent an SUV van, like a VW bus, that we can drive both directions....come back here, either the night of Day 2 or the morning of Day 3, and load up the van with the cats and their stuff. then we have a cleaning crew come in and clean. in the meantime, we have a friend of younger daughter who might be able to spend a bit of time with the cats while we're out in Pgh. however - what i really think is we'll have to board the cats on Day -1. Day 0 the movers load up the truck. Day 1 we go sell this house and the movers head out. Day 2, we buy the new house and the movers unload stuff. Day 2 or 3, then we (still) hopefully rent the SUV/bus thing, and then pick up the cats at wherever we've boarded them and bring them out to the new place. it's.... a production.

I can't imagine trying to pack my place up at this stage. (I tried once, several years ago, but my house did not sell, so here I still am.) @random_dragon_collector, I used Janice's guitar and Rowlf's bust as window displays in my 'new and improved thrift shop' mock-up!

Posted July 3, 2022 Did I mention that one of daughter's outdoor, semi-feral kitties died? They came home from vacation two weeks ago, and missed him at feeding time the next day. She found him dead in his little hidey cave in their garage. No idea what happened to him. The boy who cared for them while they were away had seen him several times, but since they are pretty wild it didn't seem unusual that he didn't see him every day. His poor brother is at a total loss without him. They had never been separated and while they both ranged independently they spent a lot of time together. Now he just mostly hangs around close to the house and even spends a lot of his day in the sunroom if daughter leaves the door open a crack. Share this post Link to post

Posted July 4, 2022 (edited) oh purple, i'm so sorry. we have two pairs of brothers, a bonded pair, and a couple (although the guy kitty there is fond of both floofy girls!). i don't know how the others would react if one never came home. although, no one seemed to notice that Arthur had a sleepover the other night.... 5 hours ago, Lagie said: Congrats! thanks! 5 hours ago, Lagie said: That sounds quite exhausting.
