Well, my boss asked me to stay late this morning so he could talk to me. So I sat around for the extra hour for him to arrive in the morning. He wanted to know whether I wanted to work the weekend next week, for not only are we closed on Monday and Tuesday, as we have been lately, but we're closed for Sunday, too. This leaves me with two shifts ( Read more... )

7+ bags of leaves raked up
1 big pile of dishes clean
1 big empty space in my livingroom that used to be a coffee table
0 things to do to keep me from feeling this miserable...

Well, I'd originally intended to make it out last night, but was feeling a little less than stellar, and since Erika was feeling so unwell and decided to stay in, I thought I'd stay in, too, and keep her company. After much contemplation, I decided to go ahead and try to make meatloaf. Kinda one of those things I've been intending, but not getting ( Read more... )

I just watched the end of Code 46. I remember when that movie first came out on video, I saw it. I watched the beginning of it, but had to watch the end later, alone.

I’ve had a pounding headache for the last two days strait, and my throat hurts like hell. And one minute I’m shivering because I’m inexplicably cold, then I wake up covered in sweat ( Read more... )

Well, it’s been a few days since I've posted, and a few interesting things have happened, with the whole sickly kitty situation ( Read more... )

"Yapple Dapple!"
*Poof*

Woke up this morning to give the sickly kitty her pills, and realized I didn't have the slightest where she was. I got Erika in on the hunt, and we checked all her usual haunts. The chair downstairs she's been frequenting in her antisocialness lately, the bathroom cupboard she likes to curl up in, even the hall closet, as she will dart into there ( Read more... )

Well, I've heard from the vet, and the news is pretty much as I expected… the bloodwork is in, and some of the counts (the relevant ones for the liver) are off the charts. She is decidedly doing unwell. They’ve given her some fluids under the skin and want me to bring her back tomorrow to do the same. I’ll be bringing home a couple of pills for her ( Read more... )
