Ah, sadly, Mercury made the Cougar in the United States, and Mercury no longer exists. I'm not sure if there are any American manufacturers left who make a feline-based car. No, GT40 is good enough—it's got those low, stalking, panther-like lines that helped it win Le Mans again in 2016.

And yes, I know Haas run Ferrari engines. Give them time.

Augh! Ferrari! No. He's an American kitty. At least give him the honor of being a Haas or a Ford GT40.

Dear Lord, please don't let him be a McLaren Honda.

* sigh * Unfortunately, no. I still have to eat something. Just had a leftover shrimp sushi roll with my late day pills. -
Loudmouth's back from the vet. The verdict: a hairball in the small intestines. Mrs. Prof's been given a lubricant for Loudmouth to ingest for the rest of the week. I asked her if it was 10w40. She ignored me.

Trying my first cup of jasmine flower herbal tea. Nothing but 1½ tsp. of jasmine flowers, steeped for 7 minutes with 17oz. water just below boiling. First impression: hot flowers. Second impression: more flowers. Third, fourth, and etc. impressions: flowers. While I love jasmine tea, I'm starting to think I need the tea to make the experience complete. Later impressions as the drink cools down: herbal notes. The waxiness from the superhot flowers is diminishing. Note: do not let it backwash up your nose. Later: the jasmine note that I seek from jasmine tea is starting to appear. The only problem is that it's taken half of the entire batch to get to this point. I'm full. Experimentation time. I have a glass of Crystal Light lemon tea next to the jasmine. Let's mix. Not bad. Needs more ice. I'm still full. Thus endeth the lesson.

Voyeurism. Susan has admitted to it. Now she may get a game-driven mild voyeuristic opportunity. Bags of ice on stand-by.

When you add up all the pills I take every morning, does that count as breakfast? I mean, I do take a cup of coffee with them ... -

I tried that with music, but I kept forgetting to write down the musical ideas that came to me in my dreams. -
Breakfast time for Loudmouth. We'd given Loudmouth nothing but wet food, and that seemed to make Baker a bit snitty. After Baker made a good dent in his own food, he tried to go in to Loudmouth's room and poach his wet food. I got tired of chasing him away and figured that Loudmouth hadn't done anything wrong, so instead of closing Loudmouth's door, I closed Baker in the master bedroom for a couple of minutes until Loudmouth could finish. It was literally only 2 or 3 minutes, but it pissed Baker off to no end. Sure thing, when I did let him out, first thing he did was make a bee line for Loudmouth's food. You could see him slump like a human's shoulders would slump in disappointment when he realized that all of the gravy from the wet food was gone.

Man, I am enjoying the hell out of the tea I bought from that Teavivre place. I'm tearing through the Jasmine Dragon Pearls like there's no tomorrow.

With my recent investment in teas in mind, I felt I needed to get a clear teacup so I could see what I was drinking. Easier said than done via Amazon. I dd finally settle on something though: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01NBUUH9V/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It's 15oz, it's tall, and there's no handle, but it's dishwasher safe (BIG plus) and gets the job done. It can multitask if I want to drink a tall coffee or a small beer (when that comes back). And, it's aesthetically pleasing. I'm happy with it on first use.

Looks like Loudmouth will be going to the vet on Monday. Mrs. Prof is taking Monday off from the kennel project on Monday, come hell or high water she says (both current Texas possibilities).
-
Loudmouth barfed again overnight. Woke up Mrs. Prof, he did. Sigh. I told her we've got to get him to a vet, but she's engrossed with the kennel project (which must be finished today). She says she's "thinking about it." I don't know what else it's going to take to get him there.

10:35 p.m. CDT 20170909. I'm starting to get a bit worried about my memory as related to my hydrocodone intake. As I've said before, I try to run on a 4am/10am/4pm/10pm schedule when I take my doses. Sometimes I wake up about an hour late for my first daily dose. The problem happens on days when Mrs. Prof leaves the house in the morning. For example, I fell asleep after she left this morning to go back to the pet adoption center. She says she called and told me something important, but I have absolutely zero recollection of the call. However, the call is on the call history—10:17 a.m. this morning. Scary. I've told her that, in future situations, she should have me repeat what she says so that it sinks in. Or at least, I hope it'll sink in. -
Leftover Pizza Hut Quepapas (Tater Tots with a touch of cheese and jalapeño), reheated in the microwave with some butter and then mashed with a container of Pizza Hut's Blue Cheese dip. Not the most nutritious thing, but Mrs. Prof didn't bring anything home after her work on the kennels and the cupboard is kind of bare at the moment.

Our local Chinese delivery place has - wait for it - Mongolian beef! No breading. Just beef and onions in a plain-jane brown sauce. Good stuff. -
The latest tracks are showing a path more toward the Gulf side of Florida. I don't know if this is a good thing or bad thing for the Miami area. They'll miss the direct hit, but they'll get the northeast quadrant winds in a worst-case scenario.

Well, he may be sick, but he's not acting like it. He's doing his affectionate cat routine, jumping up on the sofa and wanting attention. This time he jumped off, but I figured I could get him back up if I showed him his cat brush (he loves to be brushed (both do, so much that they have their own brushes)). Worked like a charm. He jumped back up and let me brush him. Halfway through the session, he started kneading my left leg with his paws—something he's only started since Thursday and something that I feel is a real indication of trust. (He forgives me for making him eat the dry food.) The kneading transitioned into a sitting position, so for the last quarter of the brushing, I had a lap cat! That's something I never get from Baker: he only does that with Mrs. Prof, and again, brushing is involved.

Texas Gameday. Pre-game coverage of the match-up between the Texas Longhorns and the San Diego State Aztecs. It's mainly on as background noise as I do other things.

I don't know if it was the pizza, the coffee, or all of the above, but I've had to take a phenergan tablet. Mild nausea kicked in about 20 minutes ago and hasn't gone away. -
Probably not. Forgive me. I can't help myself. That's one of the paradoxes of my diet. I have to go high protein due to my Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. I also need some form of dairy to offset a vitamin D deficiency. At the same time, I can't handle straight milk—the bypass made me intolerant of uncooked dairy. Cheese and yogurt I can handle, as long as it's not Velveeta queso.

Finishing up a slice of Pizza Hut cheese pizza (w/extra cheese). About to chase it down with a cup of Tarrazu coffee.
