I'm getting over a cold with a whole load of tea and thinking about making a hot toddy before I go to bed.

Found a wasp nest in the tree while trying to trim back the branches o_o Thankfully it doesn't seem super lively at the moment and might have been affected by last winter frost - but it amazes me that I didn't notice it until now. Might wait til Autumn/winter comes along before taking it down.

I'm at the tail end of a flu, and I'm just really tired. Also, the antibiotic I was on for ear infection gave me some weird muscle pain (supposedly a known side effect), so my hip is really bothering me.

Mom made homemade pot roast, and looking forward to it. Then I'm probably going to crash.

My arthritis is acting up so badly I'm having a very hard time walking. I'm also very bored.

My computer suffered catastrophic hard drive failure and is in the computer ER. I'm not built for internet via phone, so I'm going into withdrawal. :-( On the plus side, I'm actually reading the physical books I have in my to-be-read pile.

There are so many people that I know on the Internet who I would date in a heartbeat, were it not for the fact that they live in specific cities a continent away.

Hope you feel better soon.l!

TIL that I should not be allowed to shop online while medicated with opiates. :/ :/ :/

Depressed.

What names would you give a cat? - OR - if you have/had a cat, what were their name/s?

I think the name Pip would be a pretty cute name for a cat.

My friend had a cat named Molly, but would often give her endless amount of other names relating to the nickname Mouse like Mousey and Lady Mouse.

I named our family tabby cat after Spyro the dragon when I was 11 because I loved the game, and while he wasn't purple he was cute so, kitty Spyro!

A lot of the other names were fairly standard: a Gizmo, a Lulu, a Fluffy. I've yet to get my own cats as an adult but I kinda wanna call a black one Loki. But knowing me I'll call them one thing and then call them by a nickname the rest of the time.

I named our first cat Simba

The cats my family had when I was born were Louis and Louisa. Both boys, but when they were young it was hard to tell. Including them even though of course I did not name them.

First cat I named: Moon, a little tuxedo kitten we got when I was small.

Second cat I named was Picky-Picky, named her after Ramona Quimby's cat.

Montgomery was next, I had him only for a short while because he was rescued from under a dumpster and had some health issues, but his brief life was a happy one where he was loved and pampered. He was named after my favorite character from the movie Fame. This was end of high school/start of college.

Then I had Momo for seventeen years, and basically I knew I was ready to move on and have another cat because we had a friend who did animal rescue work who told me she had a litter of kittens who needed loving homes and that I was one of the first people she thought of.

I'm currently not in a place where I can bring home a new cat, but it's something I do look forward to doing *after* I've moved and can make a stable home for a couple. So I'm thinking a lot about names, and it really depends on what the cats I meet are like.
I like 'Dima' quite a lot, I like 'Jenny Anydots'. I like 'Dorian'-- if one of my next cats looks like Montgomery, I'd go with 'Dorian'. And I like 'Binx' for a black cat because I'm a spooky bitch of a certain age.

In the meantime, the neighbor cats that come into the yard whose real names I don't know are Mewsette (white), James Bond (tuxedo), Augustus (orange, but if I'd known Mewsette when we met him, he'd be Jaune-Tom-- we first saw him in August and also he is an intact male with the bearing of one who believes himself emperor at least), Frank Sinatra (point cat, so he's got big blue eyes), and Gandalf (grey and white, both bases covered)

My cats have been Athena (Theenie) and Tasslehoff (Tassle). I also grew up with a Cleopatra (Cleo) and a Cassiopeia (Cassie) and a Chloe.

Perseus, aka Dumbass, Old Man, and Stinkybutt.

Reznor, aka Tollbooth, Mr Floofypants, and Dood.

If I had a ginger cat - Archimedes. If I had a black cat - Galileo.

I have a cat. His name is Void but I also call him Biteyhands McBastardpants.

Crash Bandicat.
Hopalong Catsidy.
Figgy Pudding.
Saskia.

once upon a time we had miss Mai Valentine. she wandered into our apartment and that was just the right name for her attitude. now we have Sadie and Oliver, who we didn't name, but we kept their names out of appreciation for the young girls whose family had to give them up. so instead we gave them unique titles: Marquisse de Sadie, Destroyer of Toys, and Oliver Bughunter.

there is no name too dumb for a cat unless it's a word that is legitimately awful in all contexts. I still laugh every time at the Family Guy joke where Adam West (RIP) laughed and said "Paul! That's a ridiculous name for a cat! Paul!" sometimes their personalities tell you who they are, and sometimes you just feel like naming them Paul, or Butters, or Floofington.

Dune 2 has been delayed to 2024. Unclear why. I don't think it could be the strike given they have to have already finished filming.

I had surgery under general anaesthetic today. Right now I have very powerful painkillers in my system.

So why oh why am I wide awake at 3am with adrenaline pumping through me?? Grrargh.
