Yeah. Peppermint Tea without sugar is kind of nasty.
I am happy that you get to see your cat again soon.
I just went downstair for a minute and gave him food... He gets so excted when he's hungry that the minute you pull a can out of the cabinet, he'll start petting your hands with his head, and h'll pet the CAN with his head, and makes it hard to even open the thing unless you go across the room from him for a moment.
