I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I cannot help with cat dosage.

My "butcher CSA" is changing their program from site pick-up to delivery to my door. On the one hand, Box o' Meat delivered to me, yay! On the other, I no longer have an excuse to go have a beer with my parents at the really rather nice brewpub with the tasty selection but not exactly convenient location where I was picking up said Box o' Meat. Well, I won't when I get the official notification that I've been switched over, anyway. Better enjoy it while it lasts, I guess

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

Theo, sounds like the directions were unclear, and you're a good and responsible friend to take the cat to the vet.

Punishingly Intricate

Your friend should have left better instructions, Theo. You are not stupid!

Emergency vet sounds like the prudent course. I hope it turns out to be no big deal.

Not a stupid mistake, Theo. Just a mistake. How syringes are marked is not basic knowledge that everyone just picks up by osmosis, and those instructions do not sound clear.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, it sounds like that was very unclear and you are not stupid! You're a good friend.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I really should have investigated more before dosing

No, they left you with very unclear instructions. Which is not okay. I cat sit a friend's three cats and one is diabetic and I get the dosing written out for morning and night every time.

You are a good person.

-t, can you pick up the Box o Meat anyway just because it's a nice thing to do and see your parents and have a drink?

Yeah, friend screwed up. You give the mL's, NOT units.

No, at some point they won't be delivering to the drop point any more, there won't be meat there to pick up. I could just go and have a beer, of course, but it was nice to have that scheduled for me as a regular thing.

Bacon appearing on my porch as if by magic is a pretty good trade off, though.

Kinda hard to spin this as a hardship, admittedly. It's bacon. At your door.
