@Red Squirrel - awww. Some cats have this thing about feet. Not sure what that's about. One of my old cats (calico/maine c00n mix) would like to curl up on my feet. But that wasn't comfortable so then she liked to curl up on my head, which I sort of liked.

And one of my cousins has a cat that always went straight for my shoes. I assumed it liked the foot powder I used. But when I switched over to flip flops (no powder), he still seemed to like my feet.

I'm diabetic (type 2) and from what I've read, we can often secret some acetone (believe it or not) which has a very sweet scent.

Diabetic Ketoacidosis. It means your sugar has been too high for too long. So, bad.​

IDK, decades ago, when I was in my 30's with supposedly normal blood sugar levels, one of my ex gfs said my breath smelled sweet in the morning. shrug.

First . . . . Ooooo night kitty. I watched it gallop across the dimly lit backyard to the porch. I guess with all of the tuna (5 small cans ultimately), that there's leftover kibble.

NEF. I'm over my consternation with this gen's video cards. Pretty happy now, everything is working well. My fan controller isn't quite controlling my fans properly. Fans on my HSF can hit 2K RPM, but currently won't go over 900 RPM (not that I want them that high, but 1200-1500 would help under heavy load). Meh, there are worse problems.

"My" black feral was MIA for a couple days but he showed up yesterday. I wonder if he can read my mind a knew it was tuna day. I'm kidding of course but these little mental excursions amuse me immensely. Today he was actually waiting and I didn't get up until 2pm

lawyers are like scissors - they don't cut each other but only what's in between.

So if you had any doubt, now you know where you stand. Being between a rock and a hard place seems almost comfy by comparison.

I need to go to bed since I start a set of super early shifts tomorrow, but my cat looks so cozy I don't want to disturb him. Not sure where the other went.
