So allergic to Timothy Hay
Category: pets
I started trying to work hay back into the tortoises diet so they can be ready for winter. Orchard grass is okay but Timothy Hay sends me over the edge. I broke out in hives and had to use my inhaler. That was at noon. I still can't breathe at 11pm. I think I am going to have to throw it out and switch to grass instead.

I also got the hives and quite literally, hay fever, too. I switched permanently to orchard grass.

I think he doesn't like plastic.
metalpeter - 10/15/11 16:20
Oh yeah that might make things tougher as it also would make I assume those huge plastic gloves you see housewives and mad Scientists wear...
tinypliny - 10/15/11 13:55
And to talc, apparently.
tinypliny - 10/15/11 13:55
Tough luck, he told me he is allergic to latex as well.
metalpeter - 10/15/11 13:28
Guessing you can still use it just put on latex gloves and you should be fine... Well there and any place with skin contact is possible... This is by the way the same reason Drug Dealers wear gloves when they cut stuff cause if they touch the stuff it will get in through the skin and they could fail a drug test... Now maybe breathing it in could be problem but with how your hands look guessing it is just through skin absorption?
tinypliny - 10/14/11 23:17
Wow, that second lesion looks like the one you thought was a tick bite.

NoNoo Ramen Bar
Category: food
The other, while on a walk with zooey we came across the sign for a new Ramen Bar on Elmwood. I cannot wait until it opens. It is right over by Bistro Europa aand the new TeeShirt store. I sense two favorite restaurants about to be on the same block.

e-strip party at the noodle bar? Sounds 'bout right
YesThatCasey - 10/12/11 17:45
Oh dude....if this place is anything like the ones in Cali, I'll be there every day!
metalpeter - 10/12/11 17:03
Is a Ramen Bar where they sell Ramen Noodles or what is it? Or is it like an Asian bar with Bubble Tea and Saki?
tinypliny - 10/12/11 00:17
I have never been to a Ramen bar! This is exciting!

Biking in South Buffalo
Category: biking
Went on a nice biketide with (e:james) and (e:terry) on Sunday. This is where I thought the drawbridge would come in handy, although this time we cut across the railroad tracks which shortened the trip a bit.

Tortoise Underground
Category: pets
Tortoise B is a much better digger than Basra. I guess Basra was good when he was younger. Maybe once your shell is big enough you font care anymore.

metalpeter - 10/12/11 17:00
Maybe he doesn't dig anymore cause he doesn't need to.... Maybe with the escape it feels as if there is nothing coming into the yard that he can't handle or that digging wouldn't be enough protection from like a human as an example...
tinypliny - 10/12/11 00:19
Or maybe he is just digging better under the hanging Basra threat.
