tinhuvielartanis: (Llama!)
It started out earlier than most of my days lately. I woke up around 7 AM feeling like my head had expanded to the size of a beach ball and I couldn't breathe through my nose. Thinking I was dead with a cold, I called the doctor and postponed my lab work that was scheduled for 10 AM. I now go next Monday at 10:50. In hopes it might help a little, I popped a Zyrtec and went back to bed. I woke up at 11 AM feeling fantastico. So, apparently, I am enjoying Springtime allergies. Yippee!

I started getting ready to go 'cos Aunt Tudi had to be down at the hospital at 1 PM for her diabetes education class. On our way out, Aunt Tudi asked, "Do you want to wear your watch today, y'know...just in case we get separated?" "Yeah," I said, "but is there something special about our watches now? Are they like Mission Impossible location devices or voice transmitters instead of simple time-telling devices? Or maybe, if I misplace you, you're thinking that the first thing I'll want to do is know the time I noticed you disappeared in the event I'm interrogated by the big police?"

Sometimes Aunt Tudi is really kinda strange.

On the way into town, we spied the oddest sign sticking out of the ground. It was one of those little signs attached to garden sticks and all it said was STORK RENTAL and a phone number. How cool is that? Who needs those spendy fertility doctors when all you have to do is a rent a stork? Should I ever decide I want a screaming, drooling, hairless little freak, I'll be sure to call that number and rent my stork. With my luck, I'll get the drunk stork who delivered Bugs Bunny to the gorilla couple in the classic cartoon Gorilla My Dreams.

The diabetes education class was quite informative and exactly what we needed to help Aunt Tudi control her diabetes. We go back next Monday for the second part of the education class, then on Tuesday for the nutrition class. Next week is already promising to be busy-busy. I was hoping to take a day next week and go down to Tri-County for a tour and to take my placement tests. If I get to do it next week, it'll have to be on Thursday or Friday....and I'm not really sure I want to do it that late in the week. So now, I'm thinking more like two weeks from today. Yeah. I'll call and set up the appointment for then.

Up until this, it had been a relatively decent day. Nothing to really squeal about, but decent nonetheless. Aunt Tudi and I went to Dr. Patch's to pick up Riley, Chester, Sheba, and Motley. Aunt Tudi went on in while I went down to the dumpster to throw away our Arby's bag so the dogs wouldn't go berserk when they smelled roast beef. I spied Levi the Llama in the stable and said hi to him, and thus began the moment that not only made my day, it made my entire 2006 so far! Levi flipped his ears and ambled up to the fence to greet me. I let him smell my hand so he could decide whether or not he wanted anything to do with me and he accepted me as a friend. I patted him on the cheek and told him I loved him and then it happened.

the mostest wonderful thing! )

Aunt Tudi has the hiccups. She's walking around the house sounding like an old wino who's been on a 3-day drinking binge.
