Ebay

Left neutral feedback "good item, but damaged during shipping because of inadequate, overpriced packing" after getting blown off by seller. I sent him an email about the damage to the book, and all I got back was:

Hello,
Thank you for your input.

My kitty

My parents took the cat to the vet today for a checkup, and the vet found a lump on her abdomen. Fairly shallow apparently, they're gonna excise it on Monday, but we won't know til then what it is or the implications.

In other news, I had the sudden brainwave today that I'd like a copy of Trivial Pursuit, as the one we have (had?) is a kids edition dating from the early 80s. Glanced around online and the rec retail price seems to be about $80! Not so interested now...
