Too tired to brain. Have an open thread.

I cannot brain today. I have the tired, and the office cold has decided to hang out in my head, making me slow and lurgy and reluctant to commit to anything more strenuous than sitting around my bedroom, not putting on pants.

So here is a picture of Thomas cuddling with Amberlee the velociraptor, intended to signal that this post is an open thread. Tell me things! Any sort of things you want. Also, I am declaring amnesty from my normal "answer all comments" policy. So I may answer comments on this thread, and I may not. Either way, my psychotically cute kitten will be snuggling with a dinosaur, and that proves that life is AWESOME.

Enjoy!

My cat is dying. The beautiful silver-blue kitten I found on the streets of Brooklyn has inoperable thyroid cancer and probably a couple more months left before he starts being in the kind of pain you don't let a cat suffer if you're a responsible owner. I'm not in New York, where Michael lives with my mother, and I probably won't ever see him again, but I've issued firm instructions to my mother to put him down when he starts to show significant pain that the vets can't help him with, and in the meantime to pet him lots and lots and tell him over many times how much I love him.

I will miss my little silver boy so much.

I wish your silver boy a peaceful passing, and for you (if you wish them), healing dreams of snuggling in which you can say goodbye to him.

Thank you. I always am grateful when people (or pets) whom I've lost visit me in my dreams.

Thank you. *hugs* I'll be all right. I'm just kind of a mess over it right now.

Callie's offered suggestions for how we might be able to bring him out here for the last few months of his life, bending the landlady's rules about pets in the house. I'm not sure it's a good idea because my daughter tends to get attached to animals very quickly and I don't want her to suffer when he dies, but I've agreed to discuss it with her and see what she thinks. I'd like to have him with me if I can.

Oh how awful! I'm so sorry. :(
