Not sure where you are but some US states already have laws in place for “death with dignity.” And of course some European countries too.

When I’m out and about and I see parents dragging their whiny kids around, I’m filled with such relief I have peace and quiet in my life.

Funny you gave him the title of Knight of the Sofa. He had a spot on the back of our couch that is still dented to this day from his constant weight on it.

Sir Kitty was sensitive to the tone of my voice. If I was arguing with my husband, and especially if I was crying, he would come over, get on my lap if he can, and yell at both of us. (RIP July 2020, age 16) Here he is looking like he’s comatose.

Pez used to use her front paws to hold her tail up so she could groom it. I know it’s not super unusual, but she was the only one of our three who did that. (RIP November 2019, age 17+?) Here she is in the middle of a sneeze.

Murphy likes stinky socks and shoes. (Still kicking at 20+)

Leia does not want her food given to her. She wants to earn it.

Qwolk?

I need to see pics of you two!

My brother has tinnitus and sometimes doesn’t realize his voice is really loud.

Thanks. I don’t have a prostate but incontinence is more common in women. At the first sign of a leakage problem, you bet I’m heading to the doctor right away.

Getting up to pee 2x a night

I hate that too but I’m just glad I still have enough bladder control to actually wake up for it. I dread possibly losing that someday.

I haven’t seen that since I was a kid, but I still remember this part: “Eleven! Your dragon fire melts my eyes.”

I might not even have the quote right but that’s what kid-me remembers.

I am bleeding, making me the victor!

That ALAB sounds right up my alley, thanks.

Zork on my dad’s office IBM.

Someone should start a community for that.

You are an amazing cat parent. 🥹

Wow, I’m so glad you didn’t live far and you got her out. Did you just have to call to her to get her down from there or did you have to climb up?

First car was a pre-owned white '91 Ford Escort GT that I named Gypsy Jo. She was my traveling companion and served me well until some uninsured bitch rear-ended me.

Second car was Moonshadow, a brand-new blue '99 Honda Civic Si. He saw me through a bad breakup and we had many adventures together. I sold him to a car enthusiast in 2016 for $6500.

Current car is a pre-owned black 2011 Subaru Impreza Outback named Ira. He saw me safely on a long 14-hour drive when I recently moved.

Then Polly was very lucky you happened to be visiting that day. It could’ve been so bad for her.
