“This magic day when super-science mingles with the bright stuff of dreams.”

Today was a good day.
Four down.
One to go.
Xena’s still sick, so we took her back to the vet. Again. Apparently, someone there forgot to tell us something that we were supposed to be doing to help rehydrate her. *braincramp* So, we came home early, got her and were off to see the Wizard! the vet. Turns out that we are supposed to give her water via a subcutaneous injection. (Translation: “We have to basically give her an IV, but not really an IV – it’s just below the skin, but not in a vein.”) Not nearly as bad as we’d supposed that it would be.
Came back home, got Xena settled, fixed something to eat and then headed off to see
A couple of fire trucks pulled into the lot just after we did. We didn’t take it as an ill omen since there were no plumes of black, billowing smoke coming from inside. We ordered. We ate our milkshakes. (Mmm. Tasty shaked milks.) We watched the locals; we were not disappointed with the cavalcade of people that paraded past.
After we returned Nyx and Nox to their place, it was of to Super Mart of Wal for cat litter. (If you have a cat, I recommend Feline Pine; it’s great at stopping odor… assuming that your cat buries his or her offal.) And then, home again.
Stray Toasters
- Thanks to Nyx for showing me a link to HowStuffWorks website. It’s pretty damned cool.
- Slashdot has offered up an article on The Physics of Baseball.
- …and an article that referenced a commentary on MSNBC that asks: “Can Star Wars: Episode III Be Saved?” Good question.
- By way of IRC: ‘SpaceShipOne’ Becomes First Privately Funded Vehicle to Break Through Earth’s Atmosphere. When I hear about things like this, it reminds me of Contact and Salvage.
- This just in… (or just getting to me, rather): The photoblog of the young lady who has been motorcycling through Chernobyl seems as though it may be a fake.
- This is an interesting take on Dexter’s Laboratory.
- “A little piece of home… a little taste of hell!”
Doesn’t that pretty much sum up a lot of family vacations? - From Wired (by way of disinformation.com): XXXchurch Wants No More XXX
- Also by way of disinformation: Top 10 Conspiracy Theories of 2003-2004
And with that…
Namaste.
