Dear DH: yelling "no" at the cat in the middle of the night when he is mid-puke is not going to make him stop. It is going to wake me up. Also if you sleep until 9 this morning I may just have to kick you in the balls. I've slept in twice since b was born, neither of those times recently, so get off your ass and offer to wake up with her sometimes.

Dear cat: you drool when you purr. Normally I don't mind but last night waking up to a wet pillow and sheets because you drooled on them was not cool. Also I totally forgive you for puking up that hairball.

Dear other cat: you're cool, no worries

Dear dog: I love you, but you're stinky.

Dear B: I'm proud of you for only needing me to nurse you once last night. The wake up call an hour and a half early was not cool, but since I think you were having night terrors I can forgive you. Please please please for the love of God you need to nap today.

Dear BFF: i know you have a job, a 1 year old, and local family that demand most of your time. But could you please try to make time for me? I'm feeling really neglected here and I'm tired of always asking you if you want to get together only to have you say you're busy. So i've stopped asking. Call me when you actually have time for me.

I agree with PC, you need to tell him to get up. My husband won't unless I tell him.

I had a cat that drooled when purring too! The drool was little drops. I miss that kitty but not the drooling

LMAO @ shouting at the cat mid-puke. Been there! For me it's a "No!" followed by a dive, push, and thud, which is much more effective.

The others are right on the mornings thing. Make an arrangement ahead of time or just tell him to do it. My DH will generally take advantage of me if I don't call him on it, and I think that's sadly the norm with most of us.

I have a solution for drooling/puking cat and it's called "outside cat".
