Misc. Update

Well, there’s a big influx of blogs this week because I’ve been so busy the past week. Dr. Hasco was off trying to finish up his new house so we were all scrambling to cover various extra shifts. Monday and Friday, I worked double small animal shifts-morning at Holly Pike, afternoon at Newville. Both afternoons I was very, very  busy. Friday, I had some interesting cases including glaucoma in a micropthamic eye. Crazy. Apparently, the dog is doing very well but we’ll see for sure tomorrow.
Today is my grandparents 62nd wedding anniversary. Though its doubtful that Joe and I will make it that long since Joe’s already in his thirties and I am rapidly approaching mine, we can only hope for a marriage that is as great as what I see theirs to be. Tomorrow is my 28th birthday. I don’t have any particular thoughts about it other than I don’t really want to go to work and especially don’t want to cut any DAs (but do I ever). Joe and I went out last night in celebration. We went to Red Lobster where we were told that there was a 50 minute wait. This put Joe in a particularly bad position because I did not want to give up on Red Lobster but I didn’t want to wait that long either. We did stay and I had some fantastic seafood and then was promptly ill. Probably the four or so glasses of lemonade that I also drank may play into that. When I say I was ill, I mean like the type of ill that you shouldn’t easily bounce back from and shouldn’t go to a movie afterwards ill. But I did both with a little help from some chewable pepto bismol. After being ill and purchasing some yum-dum-dummiest noodles from Wegman’s, we went to Bed Bath and Beyond where I found out that Lenox in addition to making my favorite bird patterned china (Chirp is the pattern.), there’s bedding to match! Its terribly expensive but that’s what registries are for. Then we made it back to Carlisle and caught a late show of The Green Hornet in 3D which I thought was really good. 3D is cool. Seth Rogan may have lost a lot of weight for the role but he’s a big framed guy and being heavy suits him since his face was pretty much the same fat as before.
Tuesday was also a day of dietary upset that included drinking some milk way too fast. TMI I know.
This Tuesday, I have to remember to take the online test for Jeopardy!. I have to go to the dentist that afternoon for two fillings. One is a two part filling on one of my baby teeth. I am going to insist that he xrays this tooth because he hasn’t for any of the others. This tooth though, in being a deciduous tooth that has lasted twenty some years longer than it should, is probably more fragile and I would like to know the odds of it falling out or cracking any time soon.
We got some freezing rain last week-Tuesday into Wednesday. It wasn’t too bad. The neighbors lost some big branches from a tree but we didn’t. Even driving around wasn’t terrible. By the end of the day, it had warmed to nearly 40 degrees and all the ice had melted. We had the same Saturday morning and backing the truck out of the driveway became a challenge.
 Here’s a cute pillow I made my grandma. She likes birds.
I guess now, you’re pretty much caught up.
