Or maybe the people will just drive worse because there’s less traffic – oops! _Bump_! ---

That’s very possible. Bump. ---

Had Monday off. Using up vacation days so as not to lose them. The offspring vacuumed out the heater (it’s in the floor, with a grate over it - it collects dust and hair in the off season) and ran it with all the doors and windows open. It always smells the first run of the season. Bump. ---

Worried about my cat. He’s been doing poorly–weight loss, not steady on his feet, more napping than usual, and a lack of interest in pissing me off–and I have a vet visit scheduled for Thursday. But tonight, he’s doing worse. I may just call the vet tomorrow, and see if she can squeeze him in somehow tomorrow. A worried bump. ---

Have a look at the “Non Sleeper Cell” thread in MPSIMS. I just posted a lengthy post about Tig’s vet visit today in there. I will say that among other things, Tig got a subcutaneous glucose injection, and is now sporting an impressive _bump_ between his shoulder blades. ---

Post-election bump, and yearning for better news. ---

> [@Spoons](#): > > Tig got a subcutaneous glucose injection, and is now sporting an impressive _bump_ between his shoulder blades. He’s joining us! I hope he’s getting better. I’m glad I wasn’t expecting immediate decisions on the election or I’d be bumping my head on my desk. ---

We’ll see. I just spoke with the vet about his test results. It doesn’t look good, and I’ve got some options, all of which are difficult. Bump. . ---
