I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Libkitty! I forgot to say it - congrats on getting your condo! Your own place, so cool!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

sarameg, I'm glad to hear that MK's issues are treatable. Yay!

Also yay for your progress, Kathy! You look great.

But all boos for ita's pain clinic and the lack of treatment. It's so angry making. I'd love to find another clinic for you, one that could actually keep the pain more manageable.

It's been a good Easter, but it's hard on Franny to see her cousin leave. She's been weepy all afternoon, poor noodle.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Kathy, go you! Those photos are awesome!

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

I think i also forgot to congratulate Libkitty on impending home ownership! Terrifying and exilerating, it's quite a ride.

Sarameg- don't beat yourself up for doing what's best for your aging, ailing kitty. sick cats are scary and upsetting and we all have to constantly accept the knowledge that we outlive our furry friends.

Kathy- more kudos on the progress. You do indeed look marvelously joyful in those photos.

Kathy, congrats on the progress!

sarameg, you are doing the best for MK. I've got my fingers crossed for him.

Kathy, you look fabulous! Go you!

I'm glad, sara, that MK is moving towards mending.

I don't want to go to work today. At all. Not even a little.

Love the pictures, Kathy!

Time to get on with the day here, including all the nasty little tasks I put off yesterday, like garbage out and kitty litters.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm so fucking tired. OMG. I was exhausted last night, but still slept like shit. Hate that!

And I didn't take out the trash, which was definitely a mistake. I wish I could predict (or see) if they would have come by the time I leave for work -- this morning, I could have taken it out on my way, but half the time that's too late. In short: MEH.

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

Thanks for all the sympathy, guys. I'm a little at an impasse. I wish I hadn't already tried so many doctors. It makes the next one harder.

Called in sick to work. Just feel awful. I need to feel less awful by tomorrow.

I'm still taking one call, though. It just seems easier than rescheduling it.

Kathy, Cashmere, you look great!

Moved Mister Kitty to my regular vet. I feel better having him somewhere that knows him and his history, and with whom I've already had the Talk. He did not stabilize overnight.

And I honestly can't think or talk about it anymore if I'm going to keep my composure at work.
