More RL

Cat has pneumonia, we think, is up to nearly $1000 in tests so far. Is also making up for years of being extremely low-maintenance with a huge burst of neediness. Subsequently I am behind on everything.

Will finish up both beta projects I have by tomorrow night, then can get back into some solid writing. Then I can start on the thousand-odd comments I am behind on and remember to give some more people some love, such as no_mad_skillz, who is thoughtful and compassionate, who_la_hoop, who is hilarious and possibly my secret love child, and spark_of_chaos, who I like for so much more than her F1 obsession -- but I love that, too because we can rave at each other crazily in a few weeks and she will wholly understand the Finn fetish (it's a Baltic thing).

Ah, yes, vet bills. Nothing, that's NOTHING compared to what we've spent on our dog. I said to my husband the other night that this dog has used up all the dog points in our life (i.e., she's boggarted all costs for any future dogs), and he didn't look at me, just keep reading the newspaper and said, "Got that straight."

Oh dog costs are gruesome! I have to say that the cat has been very good, her lifetime costs for us over seven years would have just hit $3000 at the vet, it's just that almost all of that represents two incidents. Still, I used to have horses, so everything seems cheap by comparison. When you feel depressed about the dog, find someone who does showjumping or dressage and ask them to give you figures until you cheer up.
