The Unofficial Start of Summer MMP

We’ve been to the vet and nothing is resolved, other than knowing he doesn’t have Parvo. We won’t get the test results for 24 to 48 hours.

However, they did give him fluids, antibiotics, and anti-nausea meds. Plus, they us home with anti-nausea meds and anti-biotics for the dog.

He’s still not interested in food, although I got him to drink a little water.

OYKW, bein’ his ever so helpful self, pointed out to me that bananas are on sale at one of the local grocery stores accordin’ to their flyer in today’s paper. Bein’ further helpful he also pointed out that this Sunday is brunch Sunday at church and a ‘nanner puddin’ would be a nice dish to take. I asked him if he was proposin’ to make said ‘nanner puddin’. Silly me! :smiley: His proposal is he buys the ingredients and I make it. What the hey. Ain’t that much trouble to make, everybody likes it and I always get a bunch of “yays” when I bring ‘nanner puddin’, so ‘nanner puddin’ it is then.

Oh and he handed me his debit card to go buy the stuff as well as deli stuff for sammiches. He’s takin’ off this Firday and says we should eat sammiches Firday and Sattidy. Works for me!

(You were expecting dog jokes?)

No ------ but due to your previous post I am now suffering a Tim Cavanagh ear-worm
When you’ve had too much to drink
There’s certain things to keep in mind
Like if you find your hands
and underarms are bleeding
Your beer bottle might not have a twist-off cap
And don’t ever go home with
a woman they call ‘Moose’ or ‘Vince’
And never bet that you can fit
your head inside a glove compartment

Get drunk with dignity
Keep in mind that just because a bulldog licks your face
it’s not necessary to lick him back
Stay away from drinks with names like
“Brain Seizure” or “Hippo Laxative”
Get drunk with dignity

If a bar has human ears nailed to the walls,
don’t pass out there
And if your homemade jello has some goldfish in it,
you used the wrong bowl
And there are phrases you must learn to avoid
Phrases like, “That badge looks stupid”
and “I can prove these shoes are fireproof”

Get drunk with dignity
Try not to drool on bikers
Don’t moon a nun unless you’ve got a real good reason
Don’t get romantically involved with farm machinery
Get drunk with dignity

My work here is done. :smiley:

Fingers crossed for the pup, Taters

I’m working on getting my etsy site started up to try to get some graphic design work. I’ve hit a snag; I have no idea what to put for my bio!

Back from Salsa’s, stuffded muchly. FCD’s day of blowing shit up went well, just as his analysis predicted, so yay for that!

And I forgot to share this little story. A guy I work with is a Navy reservist who was activated last year and has been in Afghanistan since Sept. He was just recently promoted.

His dad had been in the army in 'Nam and in 1966, he was promoted by a LCol McChrystal. My friend had a photo of that promotion with his dad and the LCol. Well, it just so happens the head honcho in Afghanistan is a General McChrystal, son of that LCol. So when my friend’s friends found out he was to be promoted, they got the general to do the promotion. So now there are two photos - one of the fathers and one of the sons. Cool, huh? He posted this story in his blog and someone at work copied it to our network so we got to see the pics.

I’m going to knit a little, then crash early. I’s still tahred…

thank you! =^.^= I am so sharing those!

Very Velma Kelley, no?

This time I kilded the MMP

Why am I still awake, anyways? All I’m doing is getting myself into trouble. :stuck_out_tongue:

I know why - you’re awake so you can tell me why I’m awake

Yeah, I was just wondering why you were awake. Don’t you have to work in the morning? :slight_smile:

Unfortunately, I don’t. Well, not immediately paying work anyways.

I was just waiting for someone to tell me how cute my new hairdo is (post 109)

Well, first I had to figure out who Velma Kelley was. Then after I did that I forgot to come back and say that you look very nice. :slight_smile:

And now, I’m going to bed.

me too :slight_smile:

I have jury duty tomorrow. I have to be up really early and I am still awake.

I’m doing exam invigilation this morning, just managed to grab a quick tea break for a few minutes. The exam finishes at lunchtime so I am off to forage for food and get a couple of birthday cards before I head back to the exam venue - hopefully I can pick up some salad and that will sit in the fridge until I’m ready for it later.

Taters, I’m still keeping things crossed for the dog!

Up. Need to pack lunch and get out of here… Is it Firday yet?

Hugs.

GT

Up, partially caffeinated, and at work already! Hey hey heys to all, especially those who have been at work for a while - at least you’re a bit closer to Firday now, eh? :slight_smile:

And it’s Thursday and not Wednesday, which is what it feels like. :smiley:

My doctor is putting me on metformin for the type II diabetes–my A1C went from 6.4 to 7.0 and the “prick” blood test for sugar levels was 148. I am hoping that the meds will help to control it better than I’ve been able to on my own. At any rate, that’s where my head has been lately, I guess. Ah well. Thinking positively.

Happy Thursday all.
