I am astonished by how many Dopers have been to the Sirloin Stockade in Souix City, Iowa.

Hi from **EddyTeddy-almost-no-Freddy**. Yes, poor Freddy has been very very sick this weekend, but is currently recovering in the emergency vet hospital. Hopefully, he’ll be back to his usual insouciant self soon. It’s a good thing my weekend guests are also catlovers, since he did such a fine job of disrupting our plans with his selfish insistence on suffering.

Oh, well, we had a grand time anyway. Tomorrow is Monday, and tomorrow is back to reality, but… And so to bed, eh, **lel**?

I hope he’s all right.

This is **Flamsterette\_X** coming to you from old-time radio land… or at least, I’m listening to “The Shadow Knows – The Ghost of Caleb McKenzie.”

Hello out there in Internetland!

Freddy is still ailing but better. He’s been released from the emergency facility to my regular vet, where they’re running more tests and trying to get him to eat. At least he’s not vomiting bloody froth any more, poor guy. Hopefully he won’t need surgery for an intestinal blockage.

Heh – that was more than you wanted to know, wasn’t it?

Anyway, who’s next? How about **Angua**? Or will the whiff of the vet’s office scare her off?

Well, I’m not **Angua** , but close enough … well, maybe not, but **EddyTeddy** (with poor little) **Freddy** , you got me instead.

Hmm … :: sniff, sniff ::  
I smells me some **vanilla**!

Not **vanilla** … reminds me, maybe I should get some vanilla-flavored ice cream. Or maybe some vanilla-scented candles for a friend of mine.

It’s early! Anyone want some coffee?

Good Tuesday to you all!

Freddy is home from the hospital, and looking a lot better. He wouldn’t eat at the vet’s but definitely wanted some chow at home. Still not enterly recovered,but I’m hopeful he’ll be fine in another day or two. Phew! Being just **EddyTeddy** simply wouldn’t be the same.

Right, **vanilla**? It would be like being, oh, **nutmeg** instead. 😛

Man, I can’t be bothered pouring through 57 pages of thread to see how things with the OP turned out.

Can someone update me?

If you can’t be bothered with us, why on Earth should we bother with you? Do you even understand what thread you’re posting this in? :dubious:

**NoClueBoy** , are you posting next? I’ll hand this person over to you.
