My vet: I did an interesting CE last night. I'll send you my notes.

Me: Cool!

Doc: *texts pic of a paper plate covered in indecipherable doctor scrawl*

Me: ...Thanks?

*incorrect quote for @callme-xo Modern Batch AU*

Echo: Yeah, the vet thinks Gonky has anxiety.

Crosshair, turning to Gonky: You and me both, buddy.

Tech: Hello.

Crosshair:

Tech: You're probably wondering why my arms are up to the elbows in the carcass of a wild hssiss.

Crosshair: To be honest, I'm not even surprised.

Yeowch! They really jabbed her for the needle aspiration, but hopefully this means a good sample for tests. Should have blood work sometime tomorrow and the cytology results after the weekend.

The salmon oil and coconut oil for her joints are adding up though-- she's 40 lbs on the nose no longer. Guess we're going to have to cut back on the kibble a tad.

Aragorn looked at them, and there was pity in his eyes rather than wrath; for these were young men from Rohan, from westfold far away, or husbandmen from Lossarnach, and to them Mordor had been from childhood a name of evil, and yet unreal, a legend that had no part in their simple life; and now they walked like men in a hideous dream made true, and they understood not this war nor why fate should lead them to such a pass. 'Go!' said Aragorn. 'But keep what honour you may, and do not run! And there is a task which you may attempt and so not be wholly shamed. Take your way south-west till you come to Cair Andros, and if that is still held by enemies, as I think, then re-take it, if you can; and hold it to the last in defence of Gondor and Rohan!' Then some being shamed by his mercy overcame their fear and went on, and the others took new hope, hearing of a manful deed within their measure that they could turn to, and they departed.

Me: *gives an entire large dog treat (in pieces) to a 2# puppy*

Doc: Heather! That is breakfast, lunch, AND dinner for her!

Me: *am an unrepentant puppy treater and give more*

Doc: *takes the treats and hands me the vaccines* I'm revoking your treat privileges. You get to poke her instead.

when my mom was a kid in a really small southern Arizona town apparently one of her classmates had a birthday party and my mom and one other kid weren't invited. they were pretty upset and then on the next Monday apparently they were the only kids in the basically the whole school (tiny school essentially 1 room) because that girl's pet MONKEY gave everyone who went to the party RINGWORM.

the only woman daigos ever interacted with is his mom (excluding the hostess in the first kiwami 2 cutscene) they were tryna tell us smthing the moment they introduced mine

in all fairness daigo interacts with women just about as much as most other rgg guys do

hello friends! I won't be making a GoFundMe for this, since I thankfully don't have to choose between buying groceries & getting vet care for my cat Peggy, but things are a lil *tight* bc of a series of unfortunate financial events (which I will list below the cut for those interested) so if anyone has a few bucks to spare and wants to help me offset the $485 mysterious lump removal surgery my lil baby is getting on Tuesday, I would greatly appreciate it

heyoo if you wanna hear the money shit that's plagued us you are in the correct place. let us begin our chronicle in August, when I made the grand decision to go back to college for a school media specialist certification. I am enjoying it v much and do not regret it at all, but it did mean that I left my decently paying but incredibly toxic retail job and went back to getting paid beans as an adjunct professor at a community college + had to pay 3k in tuition

next Luna, my loveable but temperamental 2011 Ford Fiesta, started having Problems™️, including but not limited to: water pump replacement (which for some fuckall reason on my car requires cutting & replacing the timing belt?? which of course means it cost more), downstream oxygen sensor replacement, and a new set of front tires bc those bitches were BALD (you could literally see the steel coming out of the side). to add fuel to the fire of my ongoing anxieties, her check engine light comes on and off every few days, it's a perpetual game of chicken. when I was able to catch it on and get it checked she reported a catalytic system issue, which has in the past been cured by a bottle of cataclean, so of course she needed that too. all of which adds up to the tune of about 1.5k (thankfully she's paid off but like she's only worth 2.5k so if she keeps having issues i am SOL)

during all of the back and forth with Luna, my partner has been having dental appointments for ongoing teeth issues. we were under a time crunch to get those taken care of since she turned 26 in October, and in the great land of America that means she was kicked off of her dad's insurance on Halloween. so, after a couple appointments that included tooth extraction and the making of a denture set in exchange for CareCredit agreements, we're in 2.1k of medical debt for that (she also is now without insurance so that's fun)

and, the cherry on top and the thing that has pushed me to appeal to the Internet, a few weeks ago we found two mysterious lumps on my cat Peggy Sue's hip, which are scheduled to be removed and sent off to a lab on Tuesday. I won't retell the whole story here, but you can check the "Peggy Sue" tag on my blog for a few more in depth posts on the situation. overall her care adds up to around $900, $485 of that which is the Tuesday surgery that I'm driving to another state for (my vet was crazy expensive so I'm going to a friend's recommendation)

anyway, I know that I'm lucky to even be able to cover all of these via savings and credit cards without it threatening my food/housing, but things are, understandably, a bit tight. I hate asking for help for myself, but if anyone wants to help take care of my cat, I would greatly appreciate it

or, if you prefer to buy things, I will be listing some collectable Barbies on my eBay in the next week or so, if you're interested in that I can send you my eBay page

pic of Peggy for getting this far, thank you <3

BRO I AM SO STRESSED AND I AM STARTING TO SUFFER REAL MEDICAL CONSEQUENCES

[iiboronii]

Just wished on a star so that I could figure out what I wanna do with my life. I hope that wasn't too much for it to handle.
