I'm in a decidedly better mood. Probably due, in some part, from my relaxing pedicure. My toenails are now a lovely shade of blood red again (that's the only color I EVER have on them. I love ALL things red, including my cars and trucks! Love it!)
The cats seem MOSTLY recovered from their traumatic day. The vet was concerned that they might have some type of intestinal parasite because they both have had diarrhea, but the gray tabby has it far worse than the tortoise shell. She's also considerably smaller. Trixie, the tortoise shell, weighed 5 lbs 11 oz while the gray tabby weighed only 4lbs 12 oz. So the vet sticks this HUGE thing in their booty. It looks like a GINORMOUS needle. HUGE. The kittens both went ape shit and jumped off the counter into their little travel carrier. When we got them home, their assholes were STILL red! Poor things. The vet said that neither of them showed signs of having parasites but something about it just wasn't right, very suspicious so she recommended we de-worm them just in case, so we did. (It was only $10) Trinket, the tabby, had a HUGE bacterial infection in her intestine so they sent home some meds for them, plus some little pill popper thing to save our fingers when we DO give the meds. Here is a nice little picture of them curled up on a quilt last night. AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
aren't they CUTE? Trixie is the tortoise shell and Tinket is the tabby.
Craig is taking Ryan to practice. The good news is that he "heard" what I had to say and said a few things I needed to hear. I'm not ready to forget it, but I'm ready to let it go and not walk around carrying a chip on my shoulder over it.
I've already taken my shower and have my "trauma pajama's" on so throw in a little comfort food and I've got the making of the perfect pity party. I've even got one of my "dirty books" (as Craig calls my novels) to tide me over during the boring part of the shows. What the HELL is going to be going on during American Odol for TWO HOURS??? Good GOD...
I called and made the appointment to get my highlights done tomorrow. The price went up AGAIN... wtf? It's now $135 to get two colors of highlights, and have the darker color put on the underneath part of my hair (creates depth). You don't really notice it unless they lightly layer the bottom of your hair, and then the darker pieces show through the pieces blonde at times. I prefer this look... Anyway, that cost also includes getting a cut and style. I usually buy two or three different styling products when I'm in the salon so I rarely walk out of their for under $160. Now, it'll be $175! At this rate, I may just quit trying to hide the gray. Oh no I won't... forget I said that.
American Idol has started and Constantine Maroulis just makes me physically ill. He's so impressed with himself that there is NO ROOM for anyone else to be impressed with him. Gross (when I say "Gross" here, you need to hear Napoleon Dynamite say it! Gross!!)
Alright, time to go get comfy between the sheets and give the dogs some attention today. ciao kdgr
