BOO being sick!
Also Boo - the people who took over being fosters for Miley, my last foster dog, are either not giving her the care she needs, or she has another issue. Well, I know they were/are not giving her the full care she needs because I know they stopped feeding her the special diabetic food at some point. Now I hope they have started back, but honestly have no idea. She now has something (cold? allergies?) that is causing her nose to get stopped up and also one eye is getting matted and the vet said it is not producing tears?!?! Never had these issues with me. I just want to run back and get her. WAHHH. Anyone want to help me form a transport line from TX to here so I can rescue this pupper?
Boo fever! May it pass quickly and leave behind nothing but maybe some goofy dreams.
San Francisco branch libraries are definitely
not
Silent Book Club. At least, our neighborhood branch isn't. It's crowded and tense and just a hair short of outright noisy, and the staff are frequently called upon to be librarians and crisis counselors and deescalate fights and perform pre-paramedics triage, and they are absolutely amazing.
I would, msbelle, but it's a helluva jog out of line.
I hope you can get something set up--or at least work with the vet and your former rescue to find her a better place.
I feel unreasonably proud of myself that I DID manage to reread the first of fluffy witchcraft cozy series while I was at the spa.
Self-care gold star, Atropa!

I just love librarians. I wish I had thought to go into it as a field years earlier, when there were more jobs and fewer librarians, because I think it would be perfect for me- being a knowledge helper, but a people helper too. I think the thing I have fallen into- nursing education- is very similar, but means I am going to have to hang on to this job until I retire, because it is so specialized.
Answer is in—bone scan showed plenty of inflammation, in the spot that was hurting as well as one other.
meara, I'm wondering if maybe I should have that done. The last surgeon told me removing the plate would be easy. There has to be inflammation around my ankle joint. I didn't know bones could get inflamed too.

I'm in.
Get better, everyone who has afflictions. I've had some bad abdominal pain the last couple of days, but today is better. Yesterday was especially rough. Overall it's just been a miserable weekend for a variety of reasons and I'm glad tomorrow is Monday.
I replaced my car after 9 years and 175,000 miles. I actually got a little bit for a trade-in which I wasn't expecting for a 13 year-old Ford Focus with 270,000 miles on it and some obvious issues even if it still driveable. Unfortunately, when I went in to finalize it and they were pulling the new (well, new to me) car out from detailing it the check engine light came on with a spark plug misfire. So I got a 2017 Mazada 6 as a loaner while they fix it. I went with the cheap used Hyundai in a bunch of miles option and got a 2014 Elantra GT, but I really like it. Tomorrow they are going to drive it out to my office to swap for the loaner.
My only social media is Twitter. I can jump in and out quickly and I hear about current events since I follow a good number of journalists. Because journalists tend to follow some right-wing folks, I get a fair number of pro-Trump stuff too, which isn't all bad. I don't want my stream to be too filtered.
Timelies all!
Somebody decided to get in bed with Mommy and Daddy at 2:15 this morning. We didn't sleep well after that.
