Good foot news!
Just met with my surgeon. Looks like there will be less breaking and more scraping. This is good news for my recovery. Woot!
Wesley: I stabbed you. I should apologize for that. But I'm honestly not sure how. I think it'll just be awkward. Gunn: Good call. Wesley: Okay.

Woot! (Shudder).

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
you need to like and respect your vet and their office
Yes. I feel like Vet#1 was pushing a ton of (really expensive) tests. I do think he'll probably need more tests to understand what the mass in his lung is, but I really need to talk to someone first so I can understand the situation a bit better. A $1200 CT scan and $400 ultrasound need to wait (if done at all) until I feel like I understand this more.
it struck me how fortunate I am to love anything so much.
This. So very much this. That's how I feel about Mickey.
Oh, Trudy, that sounds horrible. But, you will be asleep, get good painkillers afterwards, and if it speeds up recovery, even better.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Aw, bonny. Yes.
Woot! (Shudder).

Thrive to spite them
Chikat I hope the new vet is a good one.
Trudy glad your foot surgery will have a quicker recovery.
And in FUCK CANCER!!!!! News
I found out today that a co-worker's 7 year old son has leukemia. I knew he'd been out and that it was something to do with his son but there was an email today. This co worker works in another location and I talked to someone else in his department today. This is what I know - they didn't catch it early and he has cancer in his spine and in his brain. He started chemo and they are inject stuff right into his spine. He's at the big teaching hospital near here and my co worker and his wife are staying at Ronald McDonald house.
I met co worker's wife at a work function this fall and she was such a great person to talk to. And she was really happy because he has Asperger's and has been doing great in therapy and just really improving.
I feel so helpless, but we were given an address to send cards so I'm going to get some fun cards and maybe get some legos or stickers or something. I want to do something for my coworker and his wife but I'm not sure what to do.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
That sucks, askye. If the coworker and wife are staying away from home, maybe you could ask if there were things you could bring over for them? (Deliver their mail or suchlike?)
Trudy, I'm glad things are looking good, recovery-wise.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Oh, askye, how heart-breaking. Fuck cancer, sideways with a rusty chainsaw.
Trudy, I'm glad that the foot surgery will be easier than previously thought.
As I finished up the inspection, he licked my face and relaxed. In that moment, it struck me how fortunate I am to love anything so much. When I was young...the angriest dog in the Universe...just trying to figure out how to be me, I would never have guessed that my heart could be so open.
Repeating this just because it was so lovely.
So I made my supervisor giggle today. One of the individuals that live there came home from work with a garbage bag full of soiled clothing, causing a flurry of scrubbing, laundering, showering, and bleaching the heck out of the areas surrounding where those tasks had been performed out of fear of splashes. After it was all over, I looked at her and deadpanned, "What a crappy day."
