Don’t get me wrong, I do love my job. But sometimes… This is not the real response I provided to the client but I wish it were. You can guess the question.
Response: Please tell us when we can schedule the suspension of your domain that would be better than at this time? Optionally, you can renew your domain PRIOR to the expiration but that might go a long way to saving you trouble so it’s probably best to ignore the renewal letters and make sure you contact information is not up to date. We like it that way too because we lose clients and money. We’re not in business for such capitalistic endeavors. We’ve invested lots of time and money in this business just to make your life miserable. Just me and Satan.  

(or is it Satan and I?)

Pellets stoves burn wood pellets (and corn if you so desire). They’re safe, convenient and toasty. Cats love anything warm. Put the two together and you have warm-happy cats that sleep by the stove. The top of our pellet stove gets hot to the touch. Not second degree burn hot, but hot enough that you don’t put stuff on it. Think, hot like the “walls of a hot sauna”. Ouch.

Side note: I’m one of those so called crazy-child-hating people who think that sooner or later (after ample warnings), you have to allow the child to touch a hot stove in order to figure out what hot is and trust their nervous system to recoil their hand before any long term damage is done.

So, when Fur (our kitty) decided to walk on the top of the hot pellet stove I knew she would quickly get down without any harm to her tender paws. I was wrong but not about her tender paws.  I was wrong about her getting down. I watched in amazement. I took a picture because I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Click on the following image to see what I saw.

For those of you who were to queezy to look, you can safely click on the image of Fur curling up and relaxing a few inches above the fire while Lucy rests his head on the warm mantle. She later put her head down and started going to sleep… or maybe she was passing out. Not sure.
