[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:02:06 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> *puts bottles of mead and ale on the table*
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:02:30 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Hello! Is that KK?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:02:32 PM EST] <web31> nick /KK
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:02:50 PM EST] * The_Bee sips a glass of mead, with a nod of thanks to evie.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:02:51 PM EST] Nick web31 is now known as KK.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:03:01 PM EST] <The_Bee> Hi KK
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:03:14 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> How are you?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:03:16 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> Hullo KK, hi everyone
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:03:24 PM EST] <KK> Only took 2 tries this time.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:03:35 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Progress, I guess?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:03:50 PM EST] <KK> Doing better, I do believe.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:03:56 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Hi KK!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:04:01 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Good
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:04:07 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> Good to hear
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:04:11 PM EST] <The_Bee> Is your body improving, KK?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:04:12 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> And Evie, Bee, Nezz, chris/bynw.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:04:38 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Laurna had a bagpipes concert to go to tonight, so she won't be here, but says Hi to the chat.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:05:06 PM EST] <KK> Bagpipes? Cool!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:05:18 PM EST] <The_Bee> Is Laurna playing or listening?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:05:24 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Yeah, at least she's not missing chat for some boring reason
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:05:29 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Listening
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:05:34 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <capngramma> Bagpipes are fun to listen to.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:05:53 PM EST] <The_Bee> With a good player, yes.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:06:07 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Or a group of them
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:06:15 PM EST] <KK> That does help.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:06:46 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> I got to attend a concert of the Scots Guard and Black Watch playing together once. That was pretty awesome.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:06:59 PM EST] <KK> Indeed.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:07:06 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> And since they were playing at my university, the tickets were half price
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:07:24 PM EST] <The_Bee> I once attended the Highland Games in Antigonish, Nova Scotia. Plenty of bagpipes there.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:07:58 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Three of the band members went out to a local pub with me and a friend after the concert, because they wanted to see some local sights.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:08:30 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> But that late at night, there wasn't much open aside from bars and clubs, so we took them out for a drink in one of the more picturesque areas of town.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:08:45 PM EST] * chris waves from the distraction if the vikings game
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:08:58 PM EST] <The_Bee> Define "picturesque".
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:09:29 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> It was sort of going for an Old World vibe when it was built around the turn of the last century, I think
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:09:30 PM EST] <KK> Half price is good. Free is even better. We used to have a neighbor who piped for VMI, and would practice in his back yard. He was pretty good.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:10:20 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> With a good player and from something of a distance. I got my ears blasted out by standing too close to a piper once; he was good, but bagpipes have exactly one dynamic setting and it ain't pianissimo.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:10:33 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> 😄
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:11:45 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> I assume they were intended to be heard over distances in the Highlands, and they manage that! From the deck of the Yorktown, well, let's just say I should have stood farther aft.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:11:57 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> In other news, my birthday was this past Tuesday, and I thought I was just going out for a quiet lunch with my DS and parents (DH had to work), but DD decided to fly in from Colorado Springs to surprise me, so she showed up at the restaurant with a bouquet of roses for me and ended up staying until Friday afternoon.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:12:11 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Aw!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:12:12 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <capngramma> Happy Birthday
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:12:27 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Surprise kiddo visits are awesome!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:12:27 PM EST] <The_Bee> Wonderful!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:12:58 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> I think Carys wants me to make it stop making noise outside. She's glaring at me from the ottoman.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:13:09 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> They are, and I was quite astonished. My son was in on the surprise, since DD arranged to stay at his place so I wouldn't know she was arriving.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:13:34 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Oh, if the storm is anything like it was for us last night, I'm surprised you can hear yourself think!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:13:38 PM EST] <The_Bee> Is DD working or attending school in Colorado?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:13:52 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Working. She got a promotion and job transfer there last May.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:14:53 PM EST] <The_Bee> Good for her!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:15:46 PM EST] <KK> What's she doing these days?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:16:46 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> She's a corporate trainer for a restaurant, so it's a salaried position now. But she started out as a server and shift leader, and still serves at her local restaurant on occasion, so she is able to earn tips on top of her salary if she is serving.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:17:48 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Right now they only have the one location in CO, but they are planning on opening new branches in the next year, and her job will be to train the serving staff for each location like she trained the ones for her local one.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:19:05 PM EST] <bynw> ok. i'm back. that was one crazy game
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:19:06 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Her store ended up getting a corporate inspection a few weeks ago, and they were #1 in the entire corporation, so her training team (who are all her friends who worked with her here and got recruited for the new CO store) are doing a great job.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:19:59 PM EST] <The_Bee> How does she like livng in Colorado, among the mountains?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:20:12 PM EST] <KK> Sounds interesting. I take it she enjoys it.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:21:06 PM EST] <The_Bee> Did you team win, bynw?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:21:26 PM EST] <bynw> yes
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:21:40 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> She absolutely loves it! It's also done wonders for her allergies, living in a drier climate. Though it's also a lot colder. She was delayed in getting home because it had started snowing very badly when she was driving back home from the airport, and she and her fiance got stranded in a town around 25 miles from home, so they ended up having to get a ride to a hotel from a sher <clipped messag
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:21:41 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> iff's deputy and spent the night there until they could get back to their car with some snow chains to make it the rest of the way home.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:22:53 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> She says next time she takes a flight during winter, she will pay more to fly to and from Co Springs rather than trying to go from Denver and risk getting snowed in.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:23:13 PM EST] <The_Bee> smart thinking
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:26:15 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> How are your knee and back, KK?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:27:22 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <shiral_> Hi everyone
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:27:29 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Hi
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:27:33 PM EST] <The_Bee> Hi shiral!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:27:36 PM EST] <bynw> hi Shiral
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:27:49 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Hi Shiral
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:28:00 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> Hi Shiral
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:28:14 PM EST] * CambersGhost [discord] <shiral_> adds some Christmas cookies to the chatroom buffet
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:28:32 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Carys says hi. It's quieted down to just rain outside so she's not glaring at me to make it stop being so noisy.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:29:23 PM EST] * The_Bee scritches Carys with one hand and Daphne with the other.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:29:38 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <capngramma> I'm heading out. Had a busy day and having trouble staying awake right now.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:29:38 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Is Daphne being a good nurse kitteh?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:29:50 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> G'night, CapnGramma.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:29:54 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <shiral_> Re the bagpiper KK, A GOOD piper is the only kind of Bagpiper I'd want to live in my neighborhood. Just imagine living with a piper who wasn't!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:30:09 PM EST] <The_Bee> Good night, Capn G Have a good week
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:30:10 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <shiral_> Night, Cap'n Grandma
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:30:23 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> night CapnG
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:30:31 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Goodnight
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:31:54 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Ornament that many of us can understand.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:31:54 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/479836521864888347/1183566798151503964/May_your_Xmas_tree_survive_the_cat_this_year_ornament.jpg?ex=6588cd7a&is=6576587a&hm=75a4886a8423a3bf95f28497cae11468dc7e170c4991c7b303918c13c8ecc052&;
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:32:13 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <shiral_> Oh yeah!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:34:26 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> It says, "May your tree survive the cat this year" and has a Christmas tree with a black cat superimposed on it, for the IRC folks.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:35:44 PM EST] <The_Bee> I see it. I'm just having trouble centering the picture on my screen.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:39:21 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> I'm not sure it's meant to be centered. It's left justified in Discord chat
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:39:49 PM EST] <bynw> yeah the picture isn't centered
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:39:50 PM EST] <The_Bee> Did any of you see the story of the person who found a possum on their tree?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:40:17 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Screens don't tend to all be the same size, and some people chat via a phone, so it's best not to try to center an image
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:40:49 PM EST] <The_Bee> I got most of it.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:41:04 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> No, but we had one get to the top of our roof recently and peek into the window at the top of our living room cathedral ceiling.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:41:30 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> Aren't possoms supposed to be in trees?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:41:36 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> i hope the possum got out of the Christmas tree and was able to go on about their possum business.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:42:01 PM EST] <The_Bee> This Christmas tree was indoors, I think.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:42:04 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> Oh, that kind of tree
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:42:06 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> I see them on the ground more often
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:42:27 PM EST] <The_Bee> It got out of the house okay.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:42:29 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> They can definitely climb trees though.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:42:41 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> And one in my Christmas tree wouldn't be particularly welcome unless it was an outdoor tree
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:42:58 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> They are welcome in my yard, though, since they eat ticks.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:43:12 PM EST] <The_Bee> The people found an ornament looking back at them.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:43:18 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> LOL
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:43:23 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Yeah, that would be a shock
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:43:26 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> My parents feel the same way, especially with Audaline living there.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:43:43 PM EST] <The_Bee> Audaline?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:43:45 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> (about possums being welcome in the yard)
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:43:49 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> My granddog.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:44:02 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> DD and DSiL's dog.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:44:58 PM EST] <The_Bee> dog and kitty living together?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:45:22 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> In August with her birthday cake. Because she's totally not spoiled. (My grandkitten, Milo, is on the chair, hoping to investigate the cake at minimum.)
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:45:23 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/479836521864888347/1183570187086204958/Audaline_with_2nd_birthday_cake_Jul_2023.jpg?ex=6588d0a2&is=65765ba2&hm=09f912df7f2715d8a8c5a8feb39b128957887ca52c8bb74f5400655e9bf51dc8&;
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:45:25 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Mass hysteria!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:45:37 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> Awww
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:46:33 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Audaline flips between thinking she's just an unusually large cat to working toward being the world's first cat=herding dog.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:46:48 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <evie.delacourt> LOL
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:46:59 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> How about a cat-herding cat?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:48:05 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <shiral_> Herding instincts are strong in certain dogs. BEING herded is not necessarily popular with the cats, though!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [7:48:34 PM EST] Quit KK has left this server (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)

[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:13:10 PM EST] Join web31 has joined this channel.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:13:18 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> Is that our KK back?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:13:30 PM EST] Nick web31 is now known as KK.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:13:52 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Rehi, KK!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:14:27 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> We had despaired of getting you back
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:15:03 PM EST] <KK> Sorry I disappeared there. Got a call from my brother and sister-in-law, catching up. He had bypass surgery shortly before I got my knee done, so catching up took a while--longer than I expected.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:15:23 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> I hope his heart is doing as well as your knee
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:15:49 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Yikes! Also, what Nezz said.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:17:19 PM EST] <KK> Whose grand-dog is that?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:17:25 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Mine.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:17:52 PM EST] <KK> Whose is the black dog?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:18:09 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> DesertRose's daughter and SIL.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:18:13 PM EST] <bynw> wb KK
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:19:02 PM EST] <KK> And someone asked if Daphne was being a good cat nurse--YES. She's amazing.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:19:56 PM EST] <KK> Is the black dog still growing? BIG ears!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:20:09 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Snuggle-and-purr therapy might not cure everything, but it can sure make you feel better. And it encourages naps, which help healing.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:20:21 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> No, she's two years old; she just has ginormous ears.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:20:25 PM EST] <KK> Yes! Naps are good!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:20:32 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> We call them her Yoda ears.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:21:05 PM EST] <KK> Yes, Yoda ears. What's her name?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:21:12 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Audaline.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:21:29 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Like Adeline, but make the first syllable as in Audrey.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:21:36 PM EST] <KK> Neat name. Where does it come from?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:21:53 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> A mishmash trying to keep some element of her shelter name.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:22:07 PM EST] <KK> What was her shelter name?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:22:23 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> I can't remember what her shelter name was (it might have been Audrey, and DD and DSiL didn't really like that name).
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:22:59 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> But she was used to answering to it, and while she is absolutely terrifyingly smart, they didn't want to confuse her (she was about three months old when they adopted her).
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:24:15 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> She's an Australian cattle dog/German Shepherd mix, so she keeps them on their toes.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:24:46 PM EST] <KK> Well, that slight tweak to the name shouldn't confuse her. I'll bet she was a cute puppy. German shepherd and maybe black lab?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:25:10 PM EST] <KK> Ah, cattle dogs are WAY smart!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:26:28 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> She actually almost can herd the cats. Milo and KitKat play along because it's play, Cali plays along because she is a tuxedo version of Carys (aka they forgot to install the give-a-damn when they assembled her), and Layla can't be bothered to argue. PJ's the only one she really can't herd, and that's because PJ is the resident grouchy old lady who wishes everyone would leave her to her naps.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:27:35 PM EST] <KK> So they've also got several cats.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:28:05 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> And they're all my daughter's fault, even if it's my parents' house.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:29:19 PM EST] <KK> 4 cats?
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:29:26 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Well, that's not quite true. Milo is my SIL's fault; SIL found Milo in the Publix parking lot last September all by himself and he (Milo) wiggled his adorable tabby butt into everyone's affections.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:29:28 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Five.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:29:52 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> PJ, Layla, Cali, KitKat, and Milo.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:29:53 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> I once ended up with 9 cats but not on purpose
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:30:21 PM EST] <KK> We had as many as 7; moved 5 here.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:30:22 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> It was six until about a year ago when Merlin had to cross the Bridge.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:30:57 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> I only had 9 for 2-3 months, but then it was 7 cats for about 8-9 years
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:31:02 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> Five cats, four adult humans, one dog, and a partridge in a pear tree.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:31:12 PM EST] <KK> Yeah, all 5 of those Irish cats have crossed the bridge. Gus was the last of them.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:32:16 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> Do the Irish cats have their own little section of the Rainbow Bridge seperate from all the rest of your cats? 😉
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:32:18 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> KitKat is technically Atticus, but no one calls him that. I argued for Milo to be named Jean-Louis and called Scout, but in vain.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:33:48 PM EST] <KK> No, they joined the Irish cats that didnt make it across the pond, plus half a dozen or so that were with me in Florida and California.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:34:59 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> Oh good, nice to hear that they're all getting along and not segregating.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:35:18 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> My cats and ferrets all hang out together at the Bridge.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:38:14 PM EST] <KK> But I digress. Again, sorry about the interruption. We'll try to make up for it next week. I'm now officially hungry, so I need to go do something about that. I also want to peek outside and see what the rain is doing. It was heavy earlier, but not so much now. I doubt there'll be snow.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:38:45 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <stnezz> You have a great dinner and an even better week.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:39:12 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> I fully expect to be buried in fur when I shuffle off this mortal coil. Neal, Catarina, Roxanne, Keiko, Bob, Cyrano, Christian, Rusty . . .
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:39:26 PM EST] * KK steps onto her Portal, waves goodnight, and disappears in a shower of green sparkles.
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:39:34 PM EST] <CambersGhost> [discord] <azdesertrose> G'night, KK, thanks for coming to see us! Have a good week!
[Sunday, December 10, 2023] [8:39:43 PM EST] <KK> Nighters, all.
