But the stations are so deep it's kind of cool

I've read that their subways were built with the secondary purpose of being bomb shelters in mind, which is why they're so deep.

Of those subways I've ridden London, Moscow, New York, and Montreal. I wouldn't rate Montreal per se, but as part of the underground city they become much more notable.

Moscow fucking blew my socks off. We were pissed we'd missed the train, since we heard it leaving while we were still on the elevators going down. Another train was there soon enough that we didn't even have time to look at the gorgeous platform properly. We were told there had been architectural competitions for the honour of designing many of them.

It showed.

London's cool. It was my first under my own steam. Will always love it. NY subways make my head hurt.

Speaking of getting stuck, I had an IV line slip last night during the administering of fluids. FUCK. That was some startling pain. I think my surprise is what sent my friend out to get someone to look at it. No idea if it bruised, since I've been in the dark all day, and see little reason for that to change anytime soon.

I don't think I'm pulling the skin too tight. I asked the vet about getting smaller bore needles, but he said it would cause the time it takes to get the fluids in her to be much longer. I have a feeling part of the problem may be that she's developing scar tissue where she's been stuck repeatedly over the last couple of years. She's also teeny tiny, so there's not a lot of cat to work with. Poor Jojo.

GC, are you using the same spot? I only had to give fluids like that for a week or so with mine, but the twice daily shots in the same place have built up a fat pad that when I tried to put the line in there (for fluids, not shots) it never went well. Also might be she's gained weight, so the skin is tauter, so you need to try to gather more?

x-post.

Also? I go through phases where I suck at shots where I don't get a yelp, but I certainly feel him jolt and get glared at. It's almost a collision of over-thinking with getting too routine (to the point I forget how to do it right? I dunno. It's just weird.)

Oh, I misread the fluids thing. That sounds a lot more complicated.

You were in the hospital last night, ita? Gah. No wonder you were in bed all day, today. Was the newest concussion at fault?

Don't think so, Cindy. I don't feel the graininess of post-concussive like I did Sunday. What I did feel was a severe migraine including stiff neck and weak arm. Which switched sides.

All told, a miserable night, but that's done with. I'll write today off and start again tomorrow.

Feel better, ita.

I love ya, tomorrow.

Btw, have you all noticed how T. Rex kind of talks like Jesse?

I've always kind of thought of myself as a T. Rex, so.

Am so full of delicious food, I don't even know. Yummmmm.
