thistlechaserOkay, this is odd. Same brand of Greek yogurt I've been eating all week (Chobani), but this time I like it. Is it because yesterday's Yoplait was so awful? Is it because it's pineapple flavor? I think it might be the flavor, pineapple is stronger than blueberry and strawberry, so it masks (and goes with) the tanginess more. I think there may be more calories in this one, which isn't good. 160 in pineapple. Yoplait had 100, I think ... ah, I posted about this before! Strawberry/blueberry had 140 calories, so pineapple isn't that much different. 160 is a whole lot more than 100, but it's more filling so that's okay.
Yay a flavor that makes me like Greek yogurt!
In cat news, I have the oddest behavior going on. My cat had to be switched from a high protein food (which she had been on because she has a tumor in her thyroid that makes her body burn calories way too fast) to low (because her kidneys are getting worse and high protein is bad for that). So she's now STARVING. She gobbles down her food like never before, begs a lot more, too.
She has to take a pill twice a day, so I give it to her before her breakfast and dinner. It goes in the pill pocket treat I had written about previously, which she loved so much I was in danger of losing a finger while feeding her it.
Since the change in diet, she won't eat pre-meal treats anymore. The pill pockets, which she lusted after only a week ago, are now ignored -- she just wants to get back down to the floor and get her meal.
At first I was confused: If you're hungry, shouldn't you want any food? If someone is holding up food to your mouth, shouldn't you gobble it down? But maybe instincts driver her to the larger food source. She's always been an only cat, she's never had to compete for food, but I suspect that's still what's going on. (I just put the pill pocket in with her food and she eats it that way.)
RP, eeee! Funny just yesterday I had a long comment-conversation about RP in Org. Based on that, when starting a Haken scene, I decided to do it in Org instead of SMC. Soon enough, we had a gaggle of goblins and a single tauren join us! :D
Amusing bit of the scene: When Haken sees a tauren, he demands to be told a story. (He learned from Story Circle that that's what tauren are good for.) Never has a tauren said no (though one made him ask politely first). This time was no different, Haken got his story... about an elf and a troll doing it in Eversong woods. Ha ha. Haken didn't much like the story (until she added a dragon swooping in to eat the both of the men), but OOCly I was snickering endlessly.
