I'll promise the TW fic by the end of the holiday weekend, but doubt I'll get to writing before that.
CATS:
For folks not on Facebook who are interested in the fur brood, DB (the patriarch of the pack) has been diagnosed with hyperthyroid. This is the best of possible outcomes, as it 1) can be managed 2) in a manner that will give him an excellent quality of life and 3) cold to say, but a consideration - not blow my budget.
He has gone from "bony old man" to "walking skeleton" without seeming to notice the problem; he's certainly perky when there's petting or food in the equation (especially ice cream. How he loves his ice cream! By preference, mint chocolate chip. Only Gytha will fight him for it, so I have to put leave some on the spoon for her. She's the only pet I've ever had that will eat off a utensil I'm still holding. Unfortunately, this means I have to make sure she's not trying to eat off the spoon while I'm still eating off it myself...)
HOME IMPROVEMENT:
Tomorrow I channel my inner Tim Allen and buy both a belt sander and a power roller. And hey - did you know there's such a thing as spray-on spackling?
