This morning sucked. Literally.
I live across the street from a car wash. One of those ones with a zillion "self-serve" vacuums. It doesn't happen often, but they do have to empty those vacuums and it isn't as simple as tossing a vacuum bag. Oh, no. They have big tank trucks come in and vacuum out the vacuums. Noisily. At 6:00 am. SUCKS.
I think I'm going to be working from home, if I can figure out stuff I can do. Frankie didn't eat anything this morning except for grass, and I just want to keep an eye on him.
have oatmeal. am consuming.
smonster, have you been able to get hold of a vet this morning and ask their opinion?
And I'm having all sorts of smite-y Bad killrage Thoughts over the asshats who littered in your hood.
It's the last week of my contract, and I have at most a couple of hours of work to do. And two hours of meetings. I'm trying to decide if I should do a daytime movie this week, or save it for next week.... Or both!

Littering of any kind makes me see red anyway, but now that I'm a dog owner I'm having Madeleine Kahn "Flames... flames on the side of my face" moments. And it's a matter of constant vigilance, as littering chicken bones is common. Maybe it'll decrease some now that the KFC two blocks away has closed.
I'll probably call the vet once I get home and see how he's doing.
It's Monday morning. I'm at work.
Or maybe this is all a dream....
eta: And I just ate the World's Worst McDonald's hashed brown evah....
Oh dear.
Stormtrooper Girl Graduates In Full Regalia
Manja Pieters, 36, is one of 1360 Canterbury University students to graduate this week, and he paraded through central Christchurch in the costume yesterday before receiving her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, majoring in film.
"I have graduated a few times before and I thought, `This is my final time - I'm going to go out with a bang'," she said.
Pieters said she grew up with movies such as Star Wars and directors like George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, who inspired her to study film.
Pieters, who had to remove her helmet to be capped, said some people appeared intimidated by the outfit, but "I'm short so I'm not that imposing".

"Aren't you a little short for a storm trooper?"
Ginger beat me to it.
Olivia and I had a row this morning because I would not give her candy for breakfast. Anyone want a gently used preschooler?
