We are having a party in honor of bob and catt today. I'm breaking out the good cheese: chevre and triple cream brie topped with caramelized onions with baguettes, sliced grapes and apples.
*pops the champagne*
WHY BOB IS SMAAAHHHHHTT
Bob saved me last week. Remember that tooth problem? Well, my entire gum was swollen and I couldn't get into the dentist until Tuesday of this week. I recalled Bob telling about the emergency "curing" of a toothache with Listerine doused cotton balls. I restocked our orange citrus Listerine and checked out other "remedy" mouthwashes in the toothpast aisle. Well, someone had a healing mouthwash where the active ingredient was hydrogen peroxide. So completely not knowing if I was going to create some chemical reaction, I mixed some peroxide in with my Listerine. Whew. No noxious fumes. A steady stream of cotton balls soaked in the stuff for two days took the swelling right down and enabled me to get through Thanksgiving weekend.
Cheers to Bob!
WHY CATT IS SMAAAHHHHHHTT
Remember my cat having a new fetish with tipping and dragging the water bowl across the room? Catt came in with a silly suggestion of putting shiny rocks in the bottom of the dish. While the fountain idea of others sounded more likely to work, it was an additional investment I didn't want to make and since Ali can't do plastic (kitty acne!) and resin also builds up bacteria, that would likely be a little pricey for a flipping water dish.
Last weekend I bought some shiny marbley rocks at the dollar store. Ali hasn't done more than drink out of the dish since. Problem solved!
Cheers to Catt!

Blog peeps are so smart.
I'm just happy to get a chance at the cheese before anybody else arrives. Good stuff today!
cheers to the smaht peeps of blogland.
*runs to buy shiny marbly rocks*
*wonders if the shiny rocks would work on the dog*
*steals shiny rocks*
*throws shiny rocks*
What did I ever do without the internet?
shit. I forgot to smack you today.
*SMACKs Kim*
*smiles* *leans in for another*
Oh, I think it's time that I return the favor to all of you by sharing wisdom. I learned something on OT today by scouring posts.
Did you know that EMTBGRL is an EMT?
You're welcome.
*snort* ROFLMAO
Kim made me spit water all over the place. *giggle*
ROFLMAO *snort*
I love Kimmer.
I came back for more cheese and discovered quite a party. I'm not leaving now, but can somebody go out for some wine?
I'm glad to hear my "Bob is too damn cheap and lazy to go to the dentist" cure was useful.
*sits self on couch close to cheese tray with mug of wine*
I drink the Listerine. It doesn't help the swelling but it sure helps the pain. ;-)
I wonder how the dog would react to the shiny rocks.
DH came home this AM to a soaked kitchen while the cat splashed water all over. Again.
Nobody ever calls me smart. *sob*
And? I like my drinks on the rocks.
I happen to think Swami is very smart too. Just sayin'
So EMTBGRL is an EMT, huh? I think I hadn't noticed that because I am usually so enthralled in her posts, and her unending knowledge in every other topic under the sun. *rolls eyes*
I can't get past the word count, MM.
An EMT? Who'd a thunk it?
A Bobcat party is a good idea.
