Miserable

I must face facts. I have been trying to convince myself all day that I am not sick. However, it hasn't worked. I am sick, I have a cold, cough/sore throat thing going on. It's not surprising, I mean, I get this every year when the seasons change, half of my department has been running around work sick this past week, so what did I expect?

I expected the damn antibiotics that I had from all my dental work to keep me from getting too sick, that's all.

Ciao for now.

More daily happenings...

This morning I took Rembrandt to the vet. He needed to get a shot for tapeworm, plus, I had his claws clipped and got a six-month supply of heart worm medicine. A couple of his claws had gotten horribly misshapen from not being shed correctly, anyway, the gal that cut his claws clipped one of them too short and made it bleed. She said that Rembrandt didn't even flinch.. they didn't even notice he was bleeding until they saw the blood on the stainless steel table. Poor baby. He was a very good boy while they put the quick-stop on. He hasn't bled any more since we got home, however, the poor baby seems even clumsier than he was before and when he walks I notice it looks like all his little feetsies hurt. He's been very whiny and attentive and I have spent a good part of the day holding him (which really doesn't help my cold/allergies any since I need to stay away from cat hair when I am having trouble with my respiration), however, I feel as though I owe it to him since I made him go to the vet.



God, I hate colds... I hate the fact that I don't feel horrible, I just don't feel well. I don't feel well enjoy to go out and enjoy doing anything, however, I'm not sick enough to justify procrastinating on my weekly chores (laundry, etc.)

I'm supposed to go see "Zoolander" with Carol tomorrow. I'm hoping that I'll feel better by then. I've had to cancel out of the last two or three times we've scheduled to hang out together... I don't want to continue the trend, even though each time I had a legitimate excuse for bailing.

I just seem to be having bad luck, I suppose. That, and the fact that I'm in grumpy mode. Colds make me grumpy sick, the kind where I want someone around to listen to me whine, bring me juice to drink, rub my feet etc. Bah humbug.

On one good note, I did get the stats on the larger model medical sauna that I was looking at... It's about $500 cheaper, although I'm not sure what shipping costs will be... The only bad part about it will be that it will require a second person for assembly. How come I never seem to have a man around when I need one? (Forget sex, heavy lifting is one reason to keep them around)...

Ciao for now.
