[Monkey Face]

Tomorrow, I go to the doctor’s office to get the letter of medical necessity. Now if I can just get the rest of the plan to come together, I’ll be good to go...

I don’t even know how much the litter and stuff costs any more.

[Monkey Face]

W000t!

[Tax-chick]

Litter costs more than it should, but you won’t need as much for one cat.

[Monkey Face]

*tagline*

[Monkey Face]

Next time I go to Walmart, I will check on the prices of cat stuff.

[ColdOne]

Yikes we will be below zero next week.....way ahead of schedule for us.

How have you been? Hope all is well with you both.

[Monkey Face]

It’s going to be 82 today, but that is a record. Nights are cold (to me) and days feel good with just a thermal shirt and a fleece hoodie.

[Tax-chick]

Below zero - when a week ago, you had warmer weather than I do!

We’re all fine here, working on getting the house cleaned up before Thanksgiving. Kathleen and the boys are pretending they live on a coral reef ... something to do with a cartoon they’ve been watching. Oh, dear, now Frank is screaming.

"Kathleen and the boys are pretending they live on a coral reef ..."

Those kids are too young to remember the time we spent at Eniwetok Atoll.

We were finishing up our nuclear reactor program, and doing public service for the resident population, but that was also a time of ingathering for the associated Habitats. One way to set up a group comfortable in a particular time-zone is to collect people who are already in it.

So our Habitat B has a certain flavor of tiny shops, artisans, and seafood varieties. It's a popular destination for travelers on our unique transportation system; eight hours time separation accomplished in several minutes.

Space Habitats are the in thing out here.

James was only a year old then. He thinks he saw the colorful fish at the aquarium.

[Monkey Face]

Is Frank still screaming? I am. My feet are swollen again.

[Tax-chick]

No, he stopped. It was an incident involving a shark.

Sorry about your feet! We’re leaving for church in a minute. I’ll pray!

[Darksheare]

Introduce a lion fish to the coral reef.

[NicknamedBob]

"Introduce a lion fish to the coral reef."

A further note to collectors: Clown fish do not need anemones in your aquarium. The anemone is only needed where predation can occur, and does not do well with attempts to collect and display it.

You can use an artificial representative. The clown fish can be happy, and everyone can be happy.

Remember what the clown fish says: The enemy of my enemy is an anemone.

[Monkey Face]

No fish. Dirty tanks are disgusting, and as soon as a fish poops in the water, the tank is dirty. So, no fish.

[Tax-chick]

But they’re so quiet! Of course, so are snakes.

[Darksheare]

Sea anemone enemy.

[Tax-chick]

Say that five times fast.

[NicknamedBob]

I had trouble enough just typing it.

[Monkey Face]

No snakes. They don’t cuddle.
