If you think you have the money and are prepared to be with this cat for the next possibly 20 years, I don't see an issue with it.

Having a parent in that condition it may really be good for you to have something else that keeps your attention. Therapy is great, school is also great, but you're also allowed to have other things in your life and if you think a cat will improve your life I say go for it.

My cat has honestly kept me alive, even in the worst years of my depression I've always been able to take care of her and she is happy and healthy.

I don't know who that is, but if I didn't already appreciate the ladies, this would be the thing that did it. Goddamn.

I'd take one for the team and say the orange one; maybe I'll luck out and he's actually made of cheetos... Out of curiosity, was your favorite childhood book There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly? Seems like your kind of thing.

If you have the money, and the space for a cat (as in, not a tiny apartment, somewhere with enough space for the cat to explore... and if you have hens I'm guessing you do?) then it sounds like a nice idea. Cats still need daily love and attention, but if you're ready to commit long-term and know you can handle the responsibility, then go to the shelter and consider adopting! You could even do a trial period with a cat, or foster one for a few weeks first to make sure the responsibility is really one you are ready for.

I'm just gonna nod my head here because yes, I get what you're saying and I agree tbh. Like I love Asshole(TM) characters but the sheer Goodness of Steve won me over so hard in the first movie that by the time TWS came out I was already solidly invested in seeing where he went in the modern day.

People can like what they want but it always makes me a little sad seeing people hate on Cap 1 so much, but oh well. We won't all like the same things.

Jack the Giant Slayer. It was a solid movie (plus I loved watching Eleanor Tomlinson run around in armor).

They weren't sure if they were going to bring the actor and character back, so they left it opened ended. In the end they rolled the story ideas they would have used into two different characters, Michael and Todd, and let Ford have bought it. SGA did waste a lot of characters and potential stories, but in fairness the showrunners thought it was going to run for SG1 level of years so they left a lot hanging so they wouldn't end up having to do what SG1 did in terms of scrabbling to create new threats and characters all the time. I'm not sure SGA would have been that popular, but it was popular enough and had enough story and good characters that it didn't deserve being cut so short. Network politics, its a fucking bitch.

Not sure about making you feel less run down, but - get some Gold Bond 'medicated' body powder. It comes in a sea-green container. It has some menthol in it, and when you put it on (like under the breasts, on the chest, down your ribs, between the thighs but not on the bits) it feels really good, tingly and cool. Also helps with sweat and shirts not sticking so bad, etc.

If your home is warm, put a damp washcloth or small towel in the freezer for a couple minutes, then put it on the back of your neck. Makes your whole body feel cooler!

Hydrate as much as possible, and try and eat nice cool, wet foods, like salads or melon, that kind of things. Popsicles. It will just make you feel cooler and lighter food always helps.

Also, do your best to sleep cool, you'll wake more refreshed. Close up any sun-facing shades or blinds or curtains in the bedroom to try and keep the overall temp in your bedroom down during the day.

I can't help with the oily skin, sorry.

Heh. I know King Stephen (and Queen Maud!) and William Rufus, and I'm not a hardened scholar. Just a nerd with a love for English history. But yes, if it weren't for Shakespeare, half of the Richard III Society's source of outrage wouldn't even exist and then where would they be? ;D

It's not bad. Cats don't care if you 'use' them for therapy. It just means more pets and cuddles for them!

If you have the space (and money), do try for two cats, since one cat alone all day (if you work outside the home) gets lonely and bored, and might get destructive. Two (you can probably even adopt older, been together for years cats from a rescue or shelter), is always better.

And I'm sorry to hear the news about your mom.

Fellow texan here! Besides staying in, when I was working outside last summer I discovered the joys of lukewarm showers (because I can't do cold showers), and dusting powder for while wearing shorts (cause I was walking a lot outside, and experiencing chafing.)

As for the oily skin - how cheap we talking? Personally, when my skin is oily I use a charcoal mask every week to fe days, which will suck up oil like crazy, and then an oil free moisturizer to finish. On a daily basis I use the Origins Checks and Balances face wash, which I find helps control oil without drying me out (I have combo skin), which is around 20 dollars but it lasts a good while.

fill a bathtub with ice, soak a towel in ice water, take a dozen aspirin then climb in the bathtub and pull the towel over you and close your eyes and count backward from five hundred. Don't get out of the bath until you ht zero. You'll soon cool down.

You should not get a cat. Nobody should get a cat as a pet.

I completely respect that, and I know I said I wouldn't yell at you.

At the same time, I just want to make sure that you're aware that basically no one thinks that S1 of TNG is good, and most people think S2 is still well below the level of the rest of the series. TBH I think a lot of people who really love TNG would still agree with those descriptions of S1 and S2.
