Today was pretty good. I managed to get enough sleep last night, and Andy didn't need to get up so awfully early. Thena was remarkably well-behaved, not trying to get me up any earlier than necessary, and not yowling as is her wont before feeding time.

Andy had a doctor appointment and some errands to run, so I spent the day doing little things things which need to be done occasionally. The mail included some plastic leaves and glass flowers which are part of my master plan, and one of the delivery services (I'm not sure which; they didn't knock) left one of my gifts for Andy for graduation. It's one of those things I've wanted to get him for years, but it can't sit around for infinite amounts of time, and I always thought of it when no gift-giving occasions were in range.

It wasn't quite so hot today so I got my walk done before the kitties' dinner time. I saw rather more people than I do when I walk later. One of them was Jewel's dad. She wasn't having such a good week -- she hissed at the vet when said vet gave her a shot. To be honest, I don't uch blame her. I also met the cat-on-a-leash again. She's so tiny that I thought she was maybe half to three-quarters grown, but she's actually twelve years old. Her name is Cinnamon.

I also found a perfect gift for Andy today. It is, in a way, something he's asked for, but even better. It's expensive, the kind of thing which would be most of his birthday or perhaps graduation and birthday combined. We'll need to see how things look after we get the car fixed, or I can let his family know if they ask me for gift ideas for him.

Two updates. Both were really from yesterday, and were additional paper cuts. Things are getting a bit worrisome drought-wise; the next town over is on level 5 water emergency and only have 30 days' supply of water as of last night. If people still weren't rebuilding after Hurricane Floyd three years ago, I might wish for a named storm to come up the coast. I know better than to do that, though -- hurricanes (and to a lesser extent tropical storms) are good for getting wet, but often as not introduce equal or even greater problems then they solve.

And, the latest chapter in the "What allergies was I tested for, anyway?" saga:

For those just joining us, here's the backstory. )

Yesterday I received the lab results...from the biopsy. So now I'm positive I'm not Celiac, but I still have no ideas which allergies I was tested for. I phoned the company again, told them the date of the bloodwork, and they're going to try once again to see if they can figure out why the one lab result I want is so elusive. So it was nothing really bad, but it was annoying in an eye-rolling sort of way.

Today was better, especially since a friend had an interview which appears to have gone well. If said friend is reading this, Andy and I are rooting for you. And anyone else reading this take care, and I'll be seeing you around on the MUSHes or wherever.
