Woo! Today's been an exciting day already. First I worked out, which was fun as usual. It's a nice way to wake up. And then, just after I'd jumped out of the shower, Katie called me and told me that their Jeep — the newer one, not Bullet, which is the one I usually drive — had broken down on their way to work (in DSM), and they needed some coolant, water, and rescuing. The radiator was leaking, and it looked rather like Niagra Falls had suddenly migrated to the Midwest.We drove the car a few miles back, to a service station, where I met a very nice boxer (the dog, not the fighter) named Buddy. I wish Luka was born a boxer instead of a lab, because they seem a little less exuberent and less likely to jump on you.
Mr. Demitrios has a visit with Dr. Fisher, the veterinarian, this afternoon. I decided against the city vet because I've heard they're not too bright, and county vets because I'd need a car to get there. Dr. Fisher is just a few blocks away, which is helpful. It's such a nice day today, so I may as well go for a walk. And besides, I like supporting private practices, too.
An aside: It's been a while since I've had a kitten, and I forgot just how much they scratch. My arms and kneecaps (and shoulders, a little) look like a battlefield. Thank you, Burts Bees Res-Q Ointment, for providing a little respite.
Ah well, back to the
