hedgielady My cat Sleepy, who has since passed away, once sat on my open laptop bathing herself (I idiotically left it unattended to go do a few things around the house). I came back in the room in time to see that she'd somehow managed to Live Messenger send a bad word...

Back pain is really suffering

yspmyl @yspmyl (3435) • Malaysia 7 Feb 11

I had a back pain in few days back after having a heavy cough. That is quite weird that coughing can caused back pain. But it really happened on me. I can hardly walk normal and whenever I tried to stand up, my...

hedgielady At first it does sound strange that coughing caused back pain, but when you think about it, it makes a bit of sense. Coughing a lot (as with a heavy cough) can cause muscle strain, and it could have strained a back muscle as well. I had a bad cough a few years...

Picky children eaters

teamrose @teamrose (1492) • United States 23 Jan 11

Back 100 years ago when I was a child, my mom or granny would fix dinner. All great nourishing food...period. No one ever asked me what I wanted for meals, it was what was cooked. True they cooked way good and we ate way too much,...

hedgielady I was an extremely picky eater. My parents "catered" to me slightly, by making sure to include at least one dish I'd like in every meal. They still strongly encouraged me to try other things, which worked in most cases. They were also proponents of the...

Bad Week Turned Great!!!!

LilyoftheThorns @LilyoftheThorns (12918) • United States 22 Jan 11

So, you all saw my discussion about how stressful this week is going to be for me (first week of school, jury duty). Well, my week actually did a complete 360 from what was expected. First of all, I did not have to go to jury...

hedgielady Before I read the post, I'd seen the brief summary on the main discussion page and thought "Geez, is everyone getting called to jury duty right now?" Both my mom and I have been called to jury duty within the next few weeks. Now that I've read your post,...

What is the weirdest thing your cat ever did?

RedSnake9 @RedSnake9 (48) • Italy 22 Jan 11

I have a cat, whose name is Polly. Well she's actually my sister's cat, but it's like she's the whole family's. Anyways, the weirdest thing she ever did is eating with her foot! I mean, she puts the food on one foot and the she...

hedgielady My cats have all done some very weird things, and it's hard to remember which was the weirdest. But certainly a weird thing they've been doing lately is eating sunflower seeds. I've got some shelled seeds that I nibble on and also take out to the bird feeders,...

hedgielady Maybe I'm unusual, but I'd prefer my best friend. It sounds unbelievable, sure, but let me explain to you why. My best friend died in a car accident in 2002. I'd give up any amount of money to have her back in my life. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have...

hedgielady That was hysterical. My favourite part is when the vet specified that Sal is "a domestic short-haired neutered feline." And since the owners actually listed the cat under pets on the Census, it's the Census Bureau who should be blamed. Though with this,...

hedgielady Like you, I feel that flowers are essential, and not just for the physical health they can promote, but also the spiritual. I'm longing for the ground to dry out enough after a recent snow-melt so I can get out in my yard and start prepping my garden. It'll be...

New Super Mario Brothers.......

CRIVAS @CRIVAS (1815) • Canada 4 Dec 09

hedgielady Looks like I need to add the new Super Mario game to my wishlist. I haven't yet played it, and can't afford to buy it just yet (sniffle). I do love the series, though. So far, my favourite of the series is Paper Mario. I also like Super Paper Mario, but the...

hedgielady What types of food do you consider healthiest? When you slip up, what foods tend to be your weakness? For instance, most of my major food disasters are from sweets. I eat entirely too many sweets, especially lately. For a long while, I wasn't eating all that...

hedgielady I can't help but giggle a little over the fact that most posts here seem to think that seat/bench choice indicates the quality of a student. In some cases, I suppose it might, but then you have other cases. Like me. I, for instance, have always been a good...

hedgielady It's hard to pick one "cutest" thing a pet has done. After all, they seem to do cute things every day! The most recent cuteness that sticks out in my mind, however, is the outdoor kitties doing some ice-skating. First, a little background on my cats. I...
