Amazingly Simple Home Remedies

1. If you're choking on an ice cube, simply pour a cup of boiling water down your throat. Presto! The blockage will instantly remove itself.

2. Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold the vegetables while you chop.

3. Avoid arguments with your wife/girlfriend about putting down the toilet seat -- use the sink instead.

4. For high blood pressure sufferers, simply cut yourself and bleed for a few minutes, thus reducing the pressure on your veins. Remember to use a timer.

5. A mouse trap placed on top of your alarm clock will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.

6. If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of laxatives -- then you'll be afraid to cough.

7. You only need two tools in life: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

8. Have a bad toothache? Smash your thumb with a hammer and you will forget all about the toothache.

Another Loco Update


Last Saturday morning at about 4 a.m., Loco woke me up meowing, like crazy, weird meowing. He couldn't walk. His right front paw was bent under. We couldn't afford to take him to the vet, so I called the vet and asked them if they could refill Loco's prescription from a month ago or so. They said they couldn't do that without seeing him. They did offer to just charge us a re-check fee of $35 instead of the normal $75 fee. So we took him in. The vet didn't really say much other than giving him the exact same medicine he was on before, which was a stomach medicine, steroids and an antibiotic. We left the vet after paying the $143 charge - nice, huh?

Anyway, it's now Wednesday night and he is not any better. He is still not using his paw at all and his paw is ice cold. I walked into the living room where he was laying on the couch and he was doing the strangest thing I've ever seen - flailing his front paws in the air like he was boxing something. His front paws were both fully extended and he was just batting away at the air. His head was rolled back. I've come to the realization that he was having some type of seizure. I found out some info about cats and seizures and it seems to me he might be in kidney failure. I hope I'm not right. I pray I'm not right.

(Excuse the red bucket full of water in the picture. For some odd reason he likes to think he's drinking bath water.)

This is for my mom, who, by the way, never ever reads my blog. So why the hell did I post this? Because I think it's funny anyway.

Bullshit

Don't need a can for it to smell like that around here.
