All Kinds Of Stuff

It’s been a busy week (or longer…), which is, of course, no excuse for my lack of postings, but now I’m back!  Here’s some stuff that’s happened in the last several days…

• I got comments!!  Thanks Aunt Jane!  Now I know that at least someone loves me!  :-)  How’s Jersey doing now, by the way?  Did Uncle Dee stop calling her Butthead? 
• I attended the going-away party for a coworker (he took my place when I moved from Finance to IT), who is now going to work for Crocs, the plastic shoe company (based in Boulder, CO).  I’m so bummed to lose him, but of course I wish him the best!!
• Along with spending way too many hours playing WoW, I actually did some serious house-cleaning over the weekend.  This is the greatest invention ever for anyone who has to clean a bathtub or shower.
• I fixed a couple pairs of earrings that I didn’t do such a great job building in the first place.  I also made a new cell phone wrist strap (dorky, yes…) to replace the one I broke when I was playing around with it during a meeting.  And… then I made a new necklace with these cool brown-ish pearls I found in a bead store downtown.  I finished the earrings tonight, but I’m not sure how crazy about them I am yet…  I’ll post pictures of all in the next couple of days.
• I watched a couple of movies, including Walk the Line.  Absolutely awesome movie.  Loved it.

The big adventure of the week involved Stormy Dog.  He’d been doing really well, and hadn’t had any crazy episodes for about 8 months.  Wednesday night he had an insulin reaction – thankfully, Tina saw him looking shaky and goofy, and got him some Karo syrup before he started having seizures!  Last time he had a reaction like this, he actually had seizures, which was one of the scariest things I’ve ever seen!!  He then went to the emergency vet and spent the night there with an IV in.  He made quite an impression on the doctor (who is starting to know Stormy by name – she thought we needed “frequent flier miles” for all of the times she’s seen Stormy and Shadow) and the vet techs at the emergency clinic.  He apparently spent lots of time in his kennel at the clinic “fluffing” his bed there.  He does that at home all the time, which always cracks me up, but he made everyone there laugh too.  I always tell him he’s a “funny boy,” which is exactly what the receptionist said when we picked him up Thursday morning.

So, those are some of the big events of the last week.  How’s everyone doing?
