Our cat Lilly will scratch on the floor around her bowl of wet food if there is a fair amount left and she doesn't want to finish it right then. I always figured it was some sort of instinct to try to bury or hide extra food so it could be eaten later. But now she's started doing it before she has a...

The best mall in Des Moines opened at midnight last night. The two department stores in the mall opened this morning at the regular time I guess--or maybe early, not sure. The newspaper said that 35,000 people were in line in cars to get into the parking lot at midnight. I guess it's sort of a "...

You are lucky. I have a clock that automatically resets itself, but it was built to reset at the old Daylight Savings Time time. So it changed two weeks ago. Then some clocks drive me mad when I try to figure out how to change them so I give up and try to remember if they are ahead or behind. If I f...

I also was thinking this was going to be some kind of warning about not letting corn snakes be around kittens :o . I'm glad it's a happy story. I can't wait to see the photos of the little furry ones----as long as that doesn't mean the frozen baby mice! (I suppose they don't have much fur.---Not sur...

I need a scarf like that for our black kitty. She is just impossible to see at night. Rooms and hallways that are lit well enough to walk through, so that you don't really need to turn on the light, are terrible because I'll be walking and suddenly I'll hear a meow. I have to stop right where I am, ...

I like a lot of detectives but right now my favorites would be: Sherlock Holmes forever. Erast Petrovich Fandorin from the series of novels by Boris Akunin. They haven't all been translated, so I am eagerly awaiting the next one. I think these particlar novels should be read in the order they were w...

I think one of the biggest set backs to trying to eat healthy is when people feel they have to eat things they just hate. If you hate vegetable juice, then don't try to drink it. Maybe putting ice in it would help. I have drunk V-8 juice that way when it is hot and I also liked the spicy kind, but i...

My memory is terrible. I could tell a lot of them were the same pitch but different rhythms and marked them as different. Was that the wrong thing to do? I auditioned for choir in high school and scored well above the curve by singing back combinations of notes. I know I'm not tone deaf. But I scor...

The first time I looked it was clockwise. Then I read the text and it was counterclockwise. Sometimes she had stayed the same when I looked back and sometimes she had changed. I couldn't predict what it would be. I seem to be feeling too lazy to try to make her do the opposite of what she's doing. I...

That was an interesting test, and people should allow enough time to take it since it is a little longer than some. I got 26/30 and 28/30. I like that you can push the button when you are ready for the next pair---that made me feel much less nervous. Although a person who could not distinguish tones...
