and on a different note... LUMBIA!

despite all that is happening politically, some joys in life still occur...

before i went to work yesterday i gave lumbia a 'lil 'ol flea bath (i mean, she was INFESTED, and as she is allergic to fleas, she was losing some hair)... when she saw the water approaching, she attempted to run for her life, holding onto the sink with some force (don't stop, don't stop till she gets enough)... flea infestations have been really strong this year, and despite her being an indoor cat she was suffering... i have been trying to find ways to help her without harmful chemicals, and it's not been easy... i've been giving her things, to no avail... and yes, nutritional yeast does help A LITTLE BIT...

but, onto the bath... she was really sweet... even though she was scared and panting (as cats do when they are scared), she calmed down a bit, and even let me give her nose-to-nose kisses... lumbia... such a wonderful person to have in my life...
