Today's News and Weather Report

Today was much cooler, only in the 50's at the most. I woke up because the little wrens were having an argument with another couple just outside my window. Heeee. I got to watch it all from my bed. They were most entertaining, though I can see how it might drive some people crazy with all that chirping, tweeting and wing-fluttering. For me, it is a way of life; how better to know what is right/wrong in the world outside my door.

I took Baby to the vet and he was pleased with her progress (she weighs 6 lbs. now :), gave her another steroid shot and put a very light splint on her leg as she was still bending the lower part of the toes and had a small abrasion worn there. She was not happy with either procedure but she proved how active she was by running and leaping quite nicely. So she is to wear the splint until Friday, when we go back *again* to see how things are progressing. Unless she manages to remove it before then -- we shall see.

Then I went to get a haircut, though I had to leave her in the car. Luckily the place I go is mostly walk-ins and there was no-one else there, so that was quick. Though the stylist was horrified when she saw the way I had chopped off my hair in the back -- I had told her the last time I had a haircut was from the same store and she was "Who did that?". I then explained that I had done it a few days ago, because it was just too unbearably hot on my neck. Gah. She asked me how I wanted it cut and I told her: "Just however you can make it look nice, as long as it's short." Which is rather unhelpful when it comes to hairdressers, I know -- but I wasn't sure what I *had* done when I was snipping away the other evening -- and no, I was not drunk. [Maybe I should have told her I was but she probably thought that anyway, lol.] So she did some cutting and trimming and it ended up quite nice.

It started raining about 8pm and there is still some very very light rain out.

Not much other news for now. Niters.
