I thought I'd post an entry to indicate my not-deadity (though with the turbulance over the Rockies, I was certain we'd all soon be pining for the fjords).

Downtown Calgary's current tourism motto (if an ad I saw during my layover is to be believed) "Discover your d-spot." I have vague memories (all memories are currently vague) of someone telling me this.

I was mildly surprised that the province that produced Stockwell day, Ralph Klein, and Preston Manning includes a city with such a daring campaign -- but then I keep hearing that urban Calgary keeps trying to distance itself from he rest of the province. Maybe their slogan should be, "Calgary: we're not Alberta."

Or maybe they they could just detach the bedrock beneath them and become a floating island like the "purvama" in Final Fantasy XII. I'm not sure what this would prove, but it would sure look neat.

Yes -- I am very, very tired.

I glad you arrived safely and that you're enjoying FFXII. ^_^

"Calgary: we're not Alberta."

I agree, that should be their slogan. ^_^

I really am enjoying FF12-2 ^_^

It is a hard game, though. Some parts of it have me stumped, so I'm mostly concentrating on level-building right now.

node357 let me play Portal. It's even more fun than it looks ^_^

A floating island? Shouldn't Montreal try that first?

[felis-ultharus.livejournal.com]

True enough. We're already halfway there in spirit ^_^

Heh, sounds like The Stone Raft.

Also, do you give the cats their wet food every night even if they don't eat what's in front of them?

I used to feed them every second night, but then I started doing it nightly because you said that's how it had to be under the new regime, to make sure their food didn't get too dry.

Thus, I've been cleaning out the bowls nightly, and replacing the food.

With dry food there, they usually only finish a can in two nights, but wet food usually keeps so poorly in the fridge that it's not really any better than putting it out on the floor.

Whether fed every one or two nights, though, anything remaining in the bowl has to be cleaned out at feeding time, otherwise it gets nasty. And if you keep putting food on top, the stuff underneath will never, ever get eaten, and will become dangerous for them.
