No REST For the Wicked!

It has been a BUSY 2 days off!! Not the way I had planned it AT ALL!! lol Oh, well. Whatever. ;-p

Yesterday morning, I get up & am on FB. Mom messages me, tempting me with pie to come over. LOL Ok, yeah, but see...not just ANY pie! These pies she used to make when I was little. We'd have them for Thanksgiving & Xmas. Cherry or blueberry cream cheese. It's cream cheese, powdered sugar & cool whip for the filling & whatever topping. I always preferred the blueberry. ;-) So she says she's making some, asks if I want to come over. I had already decided to procrastinate with doing laundry even though I needed to this week but she suggests I can do laundry. lol So...fine. I get over there just before noon. Start my 1 load of laundry & then we go to Food Lion cuz...now I'm invited to stay for dinner. lol Gotta get roast for dinner. haha We come back & play a couple games of Gin while the roast is cooking. Now...I'm not stupid & I know she's not stupid. I KNOW she's known I was smoking again. I mean, it's obvious! You can't miss the smell. But...I never admitted it, she never asked & I certainly didn't do it front of her! LOL I dunno...I could just hear the lecture & I wanted no part of it so I hid it...sorta. So...after the last card game & before dinner is ready she makes the comment that I can smoke out on the patio. LMAO!! Yeah...awkward! haha But NO lecture so it was fine! ;-) By the time dinner was over, it was dark so I head home cuz I don't see so well at night. :/ I get home & Sebastian & I snuggle & watch a couple of movies.

Then today...yeah, I wanted today to be unproductive since yesterday I was gone all day. Well, that didn't really happen either. I played on FB a bit after I got up, then took a shower cuz I was gonna hafta take Sebastian to the vet this afternoon. After that, I did kitty litter, the dishes, finished hanging up laundry from yesterday, the trash (tomorrow is trash day), & then started getting Sebastian ready to go to the vet.

The Vet. UGH!! See...I was sooooooo NOT looking forward to this little rendezvous!! Sebastian is so freakishly spazmatic when people come over here that I could just IMAGINE him acting like a ping pong ball in the vet's office & destroying the place! So much so was I worried about this that I made myself sick! :/ So I get him in his carrier, put his bear in there with him (for comfort)...he was not happy! Cried all the way to the office. We get there & he is literally just shaking like a leaf!! I felt SO BAD!!! My heart was just breaking but I was petrified, too...afraid of how he was gonna act once he was taken out of the carrier. So Dr Smith comes in & he has his little assistant with him. They are handling him while we talk. Sebastian is cowering but he is NOT acting out. I'm shocked at this point. lol So he checked his teeth. Says he's got his Big Boy teeth now & they look really new & in good shape so 99% sure that's what the crunching/grinding/bleeding was all about...he was losing his baby teeth! WHEW! He only found 1 flea on him & he was nearly dead BUT he has tapeworms (cuz of being infested with the fleas a while back) so he got a pill for that. He has earmites. I got drops for that, which I'll administer tomorrow (I'm sure I'll end up with more on me than in his freaking ears! lol) Now...here's the AMAZING part!!! I was telling the dr about the little pooch on his belly (like cats get once they've been neutered). He started rubbing his belly, turned him over on his back & felt around...& he JUST LAID THERE!!! Even shut his eyes!! He won't lay on his back even for ME! I think my chin hit the floor. lol And, actually, the dr said he was a bit in shock over how he was taking it, too!! HAHA But for all of that, should be no worries. Just feels like fat deposits...no cysts or lumps or anything in places it shouldn't be. 2nd WHEW!! He got tested for feline leukemia...he's negative. Yay! Dr says he probably has a LOT of Maine Coon in him by the looks of him. And he weighs 7.25 lbs (I had no idea he was that heavy already!) Sooo...we go back in 3 weeks for his boosters. I'm supposed to try to catch a turd to take in for them to test, just to make sure everything else is normal, too. Then...in a couple months or so, we'll get him neutered. He wants him to spray 1st. Fuck!! You can't get rid of that smell!! UGH!! But...dr says the longer you wait & let them mature, the better chance they have later on of not having issues with their urinary tract...which makes sense. So...whatever is best for my little boy. I WAS SOOOOOO PROUD OF HIM!!! ;-) He was such a good boy!!




We came home & he's been normal. Not skittish or anything. Snuggling & all. Watched a couple movies & now it's almost time for bed. I'm ready for a day off!! HAHAHA ;-p
