Quick note: this week’s live chat will be tomorrow, SATURDAY, July 19 at 3:00 Mountain time (21:00 UT). I have to do some stuff Sunday, and won’t be here at the usual time, so I’ve moved it up a day.
I’ll have a new post up an hour or two beforehand with the video feed embedded and all that as usual. See you there!

I was exhausted during the last live chat. I had logged into the chat room but took a nap and listened to Phil while half awake.
I think I will refreshed this time.

will be refreshed

That’s good. Ever since these things started people have been making plans for me on Sundays or have been calling me constantly during the chat, and I almost never get phone calls. This Sunday my sister arranged a picnic at my mother’s house. HA! Foiled!

How do you log into the chat? I couldn’t figure it out last time.

Tim G, listening to Phil half asleep may be dangerous, especially when he pulls out his squishy ball of science for a demonstration.

Hey, awesome. Last time I couldn’t stay for long, because it was so laggy (we have a pretty bad internet connection here at our cabin). Hopefully it won’t be as laggy today. It probably will be, but luckily we’re leaving soon from here so I’ll be able to enjoy your streams without lag within few weeks!

If anyone has a pillow or sofa cushion which needs to be stuffed, let me know: the past couple of nights I’ve been brushing my long-haired cat. (Give him a cat treat, take a stroke or two, try to dodge his attempt to mutilate my hand, clean the brush, give him another cat treat, take another stroke or two . . . repeat until he finally has enough and quits responding to treats and runs into another room . . . )

I know what you mean, Ronn. I swear between what I sweep up and vacuum up and get off my cat with a brush, I could pretty well knit another cat at the end of the week.

Should I consider myself lucky that of the two cats that I have ever had, one likes brushing and the other starts screaming to get brushed and runs to me if I pick up anything that looks (to her) like a brush? The best one was when I used a ruler as a back scratcher because I couldn’t reach. This has happened a couple times when brushing my own hair so I have to do that in the bathroom with the door closed if I’m going somewhere. I don’t dare touch her brushes if she is around. She has two because she brushes her face with the shedding blade when I use the slicker brush on the rest of her and sometimes I switch off. She can’t have the slicker brush too long because she scraped her face with it when she over did it.
