Stupid Monday! I want to not be at work.
Want to be back in New Hampshire, floating in the lake, wearing a bathing suit all day, drinking beer and reading.
Or, at the very least, sleeping in my own bed or padding around the house.
Question: Will hiding in a cavern with stockpiled chocolate goods be any part of this plan?

Wow. Just wow. Fay, that was totally worth it. You just jiggled me out of the scathing remarks I have about the front office people at the veterinary clinic. I've calmed down from being seriously pissed off to now being somewhat disappointed.
The vet and I had discussed Sammie spending the night there, so they could collect a sample of the first urine of the morning after not having any liquids overnight. When I called to make the appointment to do this, the receptionist/tech told me to just take away the water dish and close the lid on the toilet, then bring her in in the morning. Which I did. But seeing as Sammie has had access to a litterbox all night, she has nothing in her bladder now. So they are going to keep her for a few hours and try to get a sample later. And I think they said they were going to give her some water.
But... But...
How will this help? How will this be different from any other time they took a random sample? They've already got two that have similar results.
The thing is, I think the vet has a pretty good feel for what will work for me and Sammie (by way of things I can manage to do to her), but the front office people just go by "standard procedures". I'm either going to have to get tough with them about stuff the vet and I talked about, or I am going to have to find a vet clinic with better office staff. I'm frustrated right now - at least as much with myself as with them.

Oh, how frustrating, WS. I'm so sorry. It's no fun when the poor pets are not feeling well!

Andi, I hope you and Sammie can get this worked out with the vet staff. Poor noodle.

WS, that really sucks. Sending more healthma Sammie's way.
I am on the verge of a panic attack. I'm all anxious and the anxiety is clawing at me, I'm jittery and inside I just want to go and scream. Everyone things got me on edge and I'm basically about to explode. I want to go home and have my freak out and then be over it. And I barely got any sleep last night which is making this worse.
But my supervisor is at the doctor's so I can't ask if I can leave.
