A little rain must fall
May. 17th, 2005 09:37 pmAnd finally it did. All my socks are on the line, but that's OK. I'm grateful for the rain.
Only a drizzle, really, and not much, but I'm grateful. I really am. We've had bugger-all for months.
Claude the cat is still limping along on three paws. His front passenger-side paw is still swollen and weeping a bit. If it hasn't drained by tomorrow, he's going back to the vet. Gave him some more of the painkiller - powder mixed into butter and smeared on his fur - in the hope that he'll put some weight on the paw and stir around the pus inside. The weeping is probably a good sign. A day left on the antibiotics, so we'll have to act soon.
Thursday is DD going to the optometrist for glasses. She's complaining of poor distance vision. Reminds me of my younger days on the nude beach. Without my glasses I could tell if other people were male or female, but not by how much. And I've got a lunchtime Microsoft session. Forget what it's about, but i can walk into town where they are holding it in O'Malleys pub. Might listen to the presentation over a pint of Guinness.
Kerri gets home on Friday. Not sure what time, but she'll let me know beforehand so I can pick her up.
And Monday is my Bookcrossing talk to the literature students at UofC. Have to get my laptop off Kerri and work up some sort of presentation.
