Le Sigh.

Our living room looks like we had a slumber party that never ended.

This is because everyone who lives in our house is sleeping there.

The central air is out, and the warranty company is replacing it (tomorrow, supposedly), but for now we've just got the window unit in the craft room and 6 fans bringing that cold air into the living room. Getting the bedrooms cold just isn't happening.


It's way too hot to go play outside.

On a seperate note, apparently Lilycat is losing control of her bladder because she pissed in my bed and slept on it. And in the hall. And under the coffee table.

Sorry about your cat.

Oh Lordy, I dun envy you, but I can surely sympathize. We came back from holiday last year at nearly midnight to find a house hovering somewhere around 100 degrees. OMg! Some of us slept in the basement, & a few more crammed into one small room with a window A/C unit. Like camping but unpleasant! ;) I hope your repair folks are right on time tomorrow!

Lilycat, you say? You're the second on my list that has a Lilycat--is it a reference to a character?? *scratches head*

Sorry that your air is out. Feel free to come hang here if you need to cool off. I know how much that sucks in the summer, as we lost ac for 3 days here last year.

Poor Lilycat. How old is she now?

You poor poor people. I can not even fathom what I would do if my AC went out here in Houston let alone Dallas where it can get way hotter than down here. I wish you a quick and speedy fix of your AC

Your A/C company is for the loss. What did they say the problem was this time?

Oh man, I had this happen before too, it was awful! We bought a TINY window-unit and stuck it in the kitchen window, and ended up with the bed and everything made of leather (mold was a problem) stashed in our living room/kitchen area, with a blanket nailed up across the hallway. I think we lived like that for over a year. I hope your ordeal lasts a shorter time!

I made the mistake of cooking sausage in the kitchen once and everything we owned was sausage-y for AGES.

We were keeping different hours too, so I ended up doing a lot of activities after dark with a flash-light while Krypt slept. I also got wireless headphones so I could watch TV/listen to music without waking him up. It was in interesting time.

So sorry about Lilycat, and I apologize for not leaving FB on your latest fics (they were both awesome), I've been at a loss for words lately and when I do have them I've been having to use them elsewhere. If that makes sense.

Hey. Sorry it took so long to get online and comment to friend... I'm off to read your Homeless story next, but wanted to quickly stop by now that I have the internet. Also yes I remember I must finish Boondock Saints.

As to Lilycat, is she doing that? It could be because she is stressed. Cats do that when scared, angry or stressed. You may want to talk to your vet. If it is just age there is a daily med for bladder control... heck valtrex for kittens :)
