I feel weak -  like I couldn't hit any sand if I stumbled downhill from atop a dune.

This is  likely from using too much of me, venting on my sup. I went overboard! (he's the guy who used to hit me, playing his jock games with everyone around him, until I put him on the floor twice and shoved him back once to make him understand that while I recognize that he is younger, stronger, I can easily see his weaknesses. He can't play those games anymore, since he was promoted, obviously.  It was not his weakness I was yelling at, though, it was his strengths which he is afraid to use. I should have supported him better, instead of criticizing so harshly)

Saturday my odometer said my car had "Error" miles on it. The fuel and temperature guages stopped working and the a bunch of indicator lights were stuck on. In addition, the daytime running lights stayed on when the car was shut off and the alarm wouldn't set, plus the stereo was "locked" and unusable.

I disconnected the battery overnight and now it works fine.

That was weird, but I'm glad that disconnecting the battery fixed it.  What kind of car is it?  Did you have to enter a code into the stereo to make it work?  My car has a special stereo code to enter if the battery is disconnected, i guess to discourage people from breaking into your car to steal it.

I can actually "speak cat". Its almost like when a baby can't really talk yet but as their parent, you know what they are trying to say. I could actually understand my cats completely, and knew how to "meow" back at them the right way.

When I was a little younger, I used to curl up with my cat poco, and sort of roll around like she did. I think I must actually be part cat, or maybe had been a cat in a past life.
Am wondering if you have seen these:

cat chirping at birds:


And two cats talking:


Yeah in the top vid, thats the "chattering" I was talking about. With some cats they do it real soft and rapid though. It means "Holy fucking shit that looks fun!" or "I WANT. I HAVE THAT NOW K?" On the bottom they were just hanging out. Real relaxed. I know it sounds like mkay mkay mkay. But it was really just cuddle/comfort sounds. Humans think things like I love you etc. Cats don't think like that. Their thought process is more like "you're warm", or "I come closer now k?" or, "I like this". Thats what I love about cats. So simplified.

Lolol. I am Lance, the cat whisperer.

See renaeden this is more common of the "chattering". Its normally quieter and more rapid. It kind of conveys a predatory urge doesn't it? The one in the video you found seemed a bit overstimmed.

Take these two kids for example. Take a guess at what they were trying to say. I know...  :zoinks:

Swedish has more nouns for relatives than any other Germanic language, maybe except Icelandic.
