Among Other Things

[la_samtyr]

Yes, I haven't done one of these for a long time. After July's heatwave, everything has been -- well, more or less normal weather-wise. Tonight though we have an interesting storm system moving up from the south. Lots of sharp, streaky lightning (my little dog was demanding walkies but I took one look at that and said no way) which is cool to look at but not so fun to be out in.

I took LeeAnn to the vet on Monday for flea drops. Of course, I could have done it myself but (a) I didn't have any on hand and (b) I don't want her to think every vet visit equals a shot or something of that sort. So we went and she was very happy that she didn't get a shot. She was rather sulky going up and refused to look at me (instead curling up and staring at the passenger door, lol) since last time -- only a couple of weeks ago -- she ended up having dental work done. She definitely was warmer toward on the trip home though still a bit miffed that I had upset her morning routine (*and* made her worry about getting a shot, which is really unforgivable, amiright? ;)

Writing continues. I am working on a couple of fics -- one due the 27th (AinA), and the other... whenever, I guess. Another will start probably over Labor Day weekend.

Back later on tomorrow, probably.

Is LeeAnn a cat or a dog? I'm guessing a dog since she was curled up and staring at the passenger door?

LeeAnn is my little dog -- a ChiPom (Chihuahua-Pomeranian) -- who is actually a teeny bit smaller than some of the cats. [g]

Oh yeah, she would be very teeny next to a couple of my big guys, lol.

GOSH I ONLY HAVE A WEEK LEFT and only like 2,000 words in this epic I set myself to write.

Lucky LeeAnn - no shots this time. But you've got to get to work, you have AinA to finish on time - LOL.

Oh, I will. It's tricky though.

My dog sulks as well - I just ignore her until she decides to snap out of it.

My little gal is pretty mellow for the most part. It was just the idea of another visit to the v-e-t that upset her. [g]

Thanks for the reminder-- I need to put flea stuff on Magic tonight.

Strangely, she loves going to the vet's, and always has. Probably because it's a car ride and seeing other dogs. But I never claimed she's a normal dog. :P

Oh yeah, car rides are a definite win. ;) I'm so glad for the modern flea meds; it makes life so much easier.
