Arm pain
Dear Robin,
I just got vaxxed six hours ago and my arm already hurts like crazy. How do I make this stop? Please reply ASAP. I can’t live like this!
Sincerely,
Hurting
Hello,
Firstly, good on you for getting your vaccine. Secondly, I found that exactly four shots of tequila and a beer did the trick for me. Follow that with a gas station hot dog and a season of Friends before bed, then you’ll wake up feeling so nasty you won’t even think about your arm. If that isn’t your jam just sneak into your neighbours’ hot tub for a good soak. That might help the pain a little. Cheers.
Robin
Picky eaters
Dear Robin,
My dog isn’t eating his regular food anymore. I tried some different brands but he still won’t budge. It’s been two weeks now, and the only thing he’ll eat is scraps from my dinner, and I can’t let this be the norm now. How do I get him to eat his normal food again?
Sincerely,
Down dog
Hello,
You’ve definitely put you and your dog into a difficult situation because his taste is now too sophisticated for dry pebbles of ground up who-knows-what. You might just have to be one of those people who cooks extra dinner for their dog, sets a place at the table, and shares a meal with their dog over candlelight each night.
