So, Mr. Meow-gi [Mow-Mow] has been brawling with this neighbor cat a LOT lately.
Last night, when Keagan got home from school [8:30ish], they were in the midst of a battle. Keagan picked Mow up to take him inside, took about 10 paces, and BAM! Mow bit him. The first time, it barely broke the skin.... the second time, it was VICIOUS. It's on his right hand, in the soft fleshy area between his thumb & first finger. We went to the ER pretty fast, for a proper cleaning [irrigation is RAD!], a tetanus shot, and anti-biotics... they gave him 20 Vicodin, too. YAYYY!
My mom had to wire us money for the scrips. And our power bill... we got out of the ER at about 11:30 [I was shocked that it didn't take THAT long!]... we went home, and at about 1am my mum wired us $$$... so we went on an adventure looking for a 24-hour Western Union... we knew a 24-hour pharmacy was near the hospital. So, we got the scrips and headed home... he took a Vic & a half, and his anti-biotics... BUT THEN a few hours later, he's up vomiting. So, MJ plays Nursie-poo... cool washcloths, rubbing his back, a trip to the grocery store for white soda & saltines... he doesn't dislike a lot of things... shots, puking, and pain in general are it. So he's had a really awful 24 hours. AND he can't miss any school... Poor thing.
Anyway. that was my night. I'll be taking care of Keag for awhile.. I'm still job-hunting. Any day now, any day now....
what else is new...
oh yeah.
reading lots & lots & LOTS.
I recommend "True Notebooks" by Mark Salazar. [I think?]... it touched me. Google it if you have to. Also, "My Legendary Girlfriend" by someone Gayle. Maybe another Mark, haha. It was a good one. I forget the name of the other one I really really liked... I read "Villa Incognito" by Tom Robbins, and for the first time, I didn't really "get" it... which is odd. Also. "Cuba Libre" by Elmore Leonard was AWESOME. I loves me some Leonard. He's a great author.
I miss you guys.
Keep in touch.
oneā„love
