So my dad just texted me ‘happy birthday’, which, like, it was two days ago. And it didn’t bother me that I hadn’t heard from him or my step-mom bc honestly I’m thirty-one. I don’t need a happy birthday anymore. But now it’s like

Did he forget? Does he think it’s today? Maybe he sent the text on my bday but it’s only now showing up for some reason?

And I don’t want to ask or point out that it’s late, bc I don’t want to start anything. I just wish he hadn’t sent it, bc NOW it’s bothering me when it wasn’t before.

So, if you could all think some healing thoughts for my brother-in-law, he could really use it, whatever form that takes. Thank you.

Also I cannot believe they sent him home from the hospital. That’s a whole other rant which I can’t really get into without revealing details, but Holy Fuck. He should not be fucking home!

Healthcare in this country. I swear.

I can’t go into details, but my brother- in-law is either really fucking lucky or really unlucky. I can’t decide. It’s like his guardian angels looked away for a minute, but then managed to miraculously save him. I don’t even know. It’s been like that for his whole life, honestly, but this was something else. It’s an argument for the existence of guardian angels that he is alive and able to walk and talk, but otoh those assholes must have been five minutes late with Starbucks or something.

We’ve fostered a LOT of cats over the years, so here’s an incomplete list of weird cats we’ve had:

1. An Abyssinian that would jump from the second story banister to land perfectly, and with utter grace, onto your shoulder when you enter our house on the first story (ok, but imagine a cat leaping onto you, it’s terrifying)

2. Satan (her real name is Cassandra) who will only sleep if she is completely under the covers and tucked in

3. Elena, a Kurilian Bobtail, that was so affectionate it bordered on harassment. She would climb your leg for you to pet her and follows people around the house

4. Osiris, a Chausie, that actually plays fetch. No joke. He also responds if you say his name, and has been on the news 6 times so far, in various different cities

5. Dolly, who we actually taught to roll over and sit on command for chicken tenders

6. The kitten that decided to travel down one of the heat vents in our home and my father had to take 3 feet of drywall out to retrieve him

7. One of the cats (still not sure which) managed to eat the insides of a full package of sausage rolls left on the counter but left the bread part totally intact

8. two years after re-homing Lemon the cat, we found her stash of tape dispensers under our living room couch. There were 26 tape dispensers

9. one of the cat’s we re-homed likes to go kayaking with his new human. He has a cat life vest and everything

Why isn’t there a picture of the cat kayaking omg.

I had to hunt through 4 cat photo albums on their facebook to find this for you… 

That wasnt a complaint, it was actually really fun.

*delighted pterodactyl noises*

OMG OMG OMG thank you so much! 

I’ve been having a rather difficult day/week and this post really helped cheer me up. 

Thank you again.

last-person-on-earth type story where somehow pokemon go still works, so the survivor is amusing themselves catching pokemon to not feel so isolated and alone

and one day, on their screen, they see in the distance

someone has set up a lure.
