Well, it is official... i'm a complete fuckin dork. My classes are a lot of work this semester, but thus far I enjoy all of them. FInally the nitty gritty of what I'll be doing. Good stuff.
Had to take my cat Poe to the vet yesterday. He's in some serious pain till his surgery on wednesday. He managed to crack the head of his leg, where it fits into the hip socket.
I can't find a good picture of cat skeletons with labels... but look at: This site
He cracked the Head off along the Anatomical Neck. It 'sort of' healed and re attatched itself backwards... but there really isn't anything they can do to repair it. So what they're going to do is operate, cut the head completely down, and smooth out the socket and leg bone so they don't catch on eachother or rub. Eventually the muscle gets strong enough to hold the bone in place, and a 'false socket' forms out of scar tissue and he can walk normally. So as horrible as it is for him, and I hate seeing him in pain, and I hate having to give him injections of morphine till the surgery... the $1600 total price tag for the office visit and surgery is what fucking hurts ME.
Evidently the problem happened because of a rare genetic defect in his knees that caused him to put too much pressure on his hips. It is mainly found in purebreed cats. His father was a purebreed Bengal Cat. Sooo lucky him. Poor guy.
Other than that horrible news, life is good... Underworld:Evolution is great... and I got nothing to complain about in life really. Hope everyone else is doing fine as well. Cept Trans... he ordered a $3k laptop so he doesn't get any good wishes! lol.
"I'm tipsy, I'm through, I'm drunk, I'm blunted
My way, my day, my life - I love it
I move, I groove, I shake, I love it
My friends, my kins, I like, I love it
I show, I prove, I live, I learn
I show, I teach, I run these streets" - Knoc-Turn'al Muzik
