Thanks for the good wishes, all! I'm still job hunting, but it sure is lots more fun staying home with my two cats!

The problem of using work or school resources for personal entertainment is rampant. It appears to me to be yet another case of "the rules apply to everyone except me." This syndrome can have terrible consequences, as most of us eventually learn.

As the old saying goes, the more I know about humans, the more I love my pets. I have never gotten a forwarded purr or a fifth-hand copy of a snuggle from my fur friends!
