Work is slooooooow today.

Frustrated cause I'm basically awaiting some responses and once those hit, I'll be swamped. They couldn't respond one now, one later, etc....no, somehow they will all respond at the same time. Grrrrrrrr.

Yay Strix!! Kick some OT ass.

Called my bank to see what I need to do about property taxes. They said nothing. They will pay it next month, and send me a statement that it was paid in December. She said deposit the refund, but don't spend it, just in case the banks estimate of taxes was off. Whee.

Brain is in blah mode from too much in head. I need a release valve of some sort. But afraid of what I would lose.

Remember last friday, when I did the impromptu photo shoot? He sent me a low res version of his prefered pix. It's pretty sweet. He had class last night, and the Prof said it was best in the class (apparently he got a round of applause from the students, and nobody else did), BUT, that the prof said it wasn't good enough. That D could do so much more. That the technical aspects are excellent, but the composition is only about 90% there. So. He asked if I would be willing to do it again this Friday. He also thinks it will get into a gallery!! eeep! I am *no* model. He's like "I can't afford modeling fee, but I will happily split 50/50 and sold prints". Sure, bribe me. I feel like such a whore t snerk So? Guess what I'm doing Friday?! Look for the first round print in my Facebook.

omnis, that's a great photo, and you looked like an excellent model!

omnis that's cool you are going to be in a gallery.

So, no test results back on Dean. Won't be until tomorrow. He hasn't eaten and hasn't had much water, hasn't used the litterbox. Threw up after I gave him the pepcid.

I called the vet (for results) and they said I could bring him back in for another round of saline, an injection of the pepcid drug, and another injection that might help settle his stomach and keep him from throwing up.

All that might help him, but it might not and they won't know what's going on until the blood work.

I'm not going to take him back in 1) because I don't want to subject him to injections that might help and might not and 2) I can't afford it. Based on yesterday's vet bill that would be at least another $100.

I hate it coming down to money but if they could say "yes this would work" I'd take Dean in but they can't even say if it would make him better.

Have you tried chicken broth, askye? Sometimes a cat will drink more of that than water, plus he'll get some salt.

Well chicken usually upsets his stomach. I ran to the grocery store and bought some kitten formula which he lapped up like crazy.

And I also found some canned catfood with seafood but no wheat or chicken. I'm going to see how he holds down the formula and then later tonight give him some of the wet food.

Bwhahahaha!

Heh, Sumi. Sometimes when I criticize stuff like Project Runway, I forget how goofy actual fashion fashion can be.

Good luck with Dean, askye, I know it's heartbreaking for you.

I think it's a great shot, omnis.

askye, sounds like you're doing the best thing for Dean right now. Fingers crossed for the test results.
