I talked to the vet and she said if he wasn't trying to rub at it and I'm here to watch him, I could take it off. So I did. He's much more comfortable and is finally able to eat. Now he's curled up asleep in his favorite spot on the couch.

Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
He's still not going outside for the recommended week, though. I can't control what he sticks his face into outside.
Sounds smart. Glad he's feeling better.
Sean, that's fantastic! Fingers are crossed.
Zen, glad that he's more comfortable now.
N, you are beautiful inside and out, and he was an idiot for walking out.
Just wanted to reiterate this.
Not commenting on the body issues. Lala, would rather ignore them, thanks.
Yay, Sean! We can start sending the interview~ma in a directed fashion!
Pretty good birthday today. Slept in a bit, got my free breakfast (really brunch) at Denny's, got my brows done (free), dinner with Mom & brother. Mom & I had to fight on the drive home, of course, but whatever (moms know where your buttons are 'cuz they installed 'em). Now catching up on DVR & internets before bedtime.
Thanks for all the FB birthday wishes, y'all. Totally filled my email inbox with the notifications! Awesome!
Doing dinner & Monsters University with friends tomorrow. I'm currently debating - it's been my tradition (pretty much since the first Buffista Bitches Tiara Exchange that I ever participated in) to wear a tiara for my birthday dinner. I'm actually considering skipping it this year. My friends would be shocked. I'm thinking of wearing my first birthday present, which was purchased a couple weeks ago by a friend I attended Greek Festival with,a Greek fisherman's hat,instead. Eh, I'll probably end up doing both. Heaven knows, I'm always down for a costume change.
thought I could absorb all the body issues and image hatred. Mine are certainly big enough to make a black hole and at least it would be useful to others to have theirs disappear. Sigh.
Do not try to absorb, WS. Your own issues are more than enough to bear. What would really be useful to all of us, including you, would be bundling them all up and nuking them from orbit. Sigh. I hate seeing their toxicity make so many excellent people so deeply miserable.
I'm about to get into a Twitter smack down with a guy I don't know who commented on my repost of the article about the AMA's decision to classify obesity as a disease (I.e. something many people cannot control due to genetics). His snide comment was that it was "just more excuses for weak-minded people." Wow, random Twitter asshat. Wow. Way to speak from a place of privilege.
Weak-minded is clearly appropriate. Attitudes are changing, but there will always be clueless idiots.
He is clearly close-minded, that's for sure.
