Fucking OUCH!!!! My cat just clawed my face!
She's being a crotchety old beyotch. She was sitting on my lap, and when I went to move her so I could get up, she dug a claw into my eyebrow area. Now I'm bleeding. I love my cat but jeez!

:cry:

1. And she loves you, but...
Those human pillows shouldn't squirm so much.

5. I know. And the older she gets, the more crotchety she gets.
She's 17, so I give her a lot of leeway, but jeebus, getting hooked in the face it a bit much!

10. I don't mind a little rough play, but I'd rather the claws be retracted.

8. I had Cat Scratch Fever about ten years ago..
It was so bad. I could barely move my arms for about two months. The doctor said that nothing could be done. The doctor placed the blame on a dirty litter box for my infection. The litter box was actually really bad, I was 19 and really busy at the time. Motherfuck, that was painfull.. I'm sure you are OK, Don't lose any sleep over my strange ability to have super weird shit happen to me.

13. I was lucky..

I was good friends with my boss. She kept paying me for the months of work I missed. I just had to pay them back later when I was better. I was only working 20 hours per week at $4.25 per/hour.. It wasn't a huge deal for anyone.

edit :: I should add.. I had to payback the hours.. Not the money. I would just clock-out and work for a few extra hours.

14. Still, that was a really cool thing for your boss to do.
Lots of bosses nowadays wouldn't do that.

15. Kinda funny story...
One night the boss (Nancy) was in a terrible mood. Me and my friend Aaron went to take our break. We went to the mall across the street for dinner and bought her a Cinnamon roll and milk hoping to cheer her up. We ended up picking her a flower from the parking lot and we put it in the bag with a nice note. We were only a few minutes late, but she called us into the office. Wrote us up for being tardy, normally that was never done, she was just pissed. I set the bag down on her desk and we walked out after being punished.

About five minutes later she came up in tears. She had realized we were late because we were buying her a snack and picking flowers for her.
