My boyfriend and I bombed our apartment this past weekend because we had a SERIOUS flea problem. I washed my cat in some very strong flea shampoo before we left, and washed her again just to be sure when we got back (it works really well, judging by all the dead fleas in the tub when I get done). I even washed all of our clothes before we set off the bombs. I also sprayed the carpet with Raid for fleas and vacuumed twice when we got back.

But for some reason we STILL have fleas! My boyfriend is threatening to get rid of the cat, but I really don't want to do that as I practically think of her as my child (he doesn't have the kind of relationship with her that I do as he's the disciplinarian).

On a side note: our cat isn't the reason we have fleas. We dog-sat a friend's mom's pomeranian who swore up and down she didn't have fleas. Hmph.... It's funny the fleas didn't show up until we dog-sat.

What can we do?!?

...a correct impression?

(Americans tend to use the politics section on YA, Brits Current Events)

A lot of Brits will say most Americans are decent, just don't like their president - is this because we meet the decent ones, for example the ones who travel outside America?

My husband and I are ttc(trying to conceive), so I have been monitoring my cm(cerival mucus). I noticed yesterday that I had the eggwhite, stretchy cm so we did the baby dance(intercourse) lastnight. This morning I noticed that I had a lot of cm when I went to the bathroom. It was VERY stretchy. It was actually dangling from my va-jay jay all the way to the water in the toilet. Does this mean that today is the day that I am ovulating???
I know this stuff is very graphic, but I really need serious answers. And in order for me to get serious answers, I have to be VERY graphic in my details of this questions.
Thankyou in advance for all the answers I get and good luck and lots of baby dust to those who are ttc and Congrats to those who are already preggers!!!

That you just crave so very much yet you are so far apart, and it drives you crazy wanting the one you just know would full fill all of your desires, and make your life complete??

who got the blame for evil. I know the Christians morphed a bunch of 'nad guys' (kings & deities) into one character but what motivated the bad gods in Greek and Egyptian mythology?

im a 30 year old borderline personality disorder sufferer...i live alone...im very lonely...have low self esteem...because of my problems...ive never made any friends ever.....never been in a relationship, ever.....ive never been employed.

ive had the internet since 2005 which had connected me really to people and the outside word. unfortunatly, because of the way iam, most people have come and left.....than come and remained friends.....im clingy...needy...get reliant...want intimacy early, coupled with the very low self esteem....always frightens people away from me.
along with other symptoms...i have irrational thoughts ive had for along time....ive recently been rejected by internet friends that id known for months...from the states.

& im thinking its because '' people are having negative information fed to them about me & are being influenced to stay away, not help, befriend or get involved ''

having this thought is making me angry & depressed..but i can find no other

I'm sure this has been asked before, but if humans and monkeys evolved from a common ancestor (an idea with which I do not agree, but am willing to accept that other people believe), then what is your opinion on how humans developed souls/spirits and the capacity for human traits such as speech and philosophical reasoning?

Ok, I'm wondering....after you had children, did your periods get heavier, the cramping more severe? I had my second child nearly five years ago, and I noticed that my periods got much heavier, they last longer, and the cramping is more severe. I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same? Also, aside from Motrin, heating pads, and such, what are the ways you cope with the cramping? I find myself skipping work and activities that I enjoy at times because it's so severe. My doctor says that it's ok, that we don't want to even think about a hysterectomy at this point, that I'm clear of cysts and other ailments, but it's making me miserable. Suggestions?
