I seem to be on one of those roller coaster rides. I feel so much better today. Today was a holiday (Veteran's Day), so once again I probably didn't need to go in for my internship. As far as I know, my supervisor wasn't even there and, technically speaking, I'm only supposed to be there when my supervisor is there but, I forgot to ask if this holiday counted or not. And, I just sat on a mostly empty unit all day (most of the patients were taken downtown to see the parade) and hung out with the remaining patients and staff. I would have sat at home all day by myself anyway, so at least at the internship I'm with other people, you know? Finally watched Gran Torino. Good movie. I might buy it. Favorite quote from it: "Ever know how you come across someone once in a while that you shouldn't have fucked with? That's me." Awesome.
I know I'm beginning to sound like a broken record but, no one really reads this anyway so it's pretty much for my benefit. My cat is vomiting more often now. Once every 3 days or so. Solid food and bile. She drinks nearly an entire bowl of water every day. I suspect it's an attempt to compensate for the lack of food in her belly. She's recently also started hiding in my closet. She just settles in between my laundry basket and the wall to sleep by herself. You know how animals tend to go off by themselves to die? She knows. I don't think she feels very well. She complains a lot, about what I'm not sure. It's like she wants me to do something. I don't think she'll go before the end of the year. But I think it's better for me to assume that she's going to die within the next few days, because then it's not so much of a shock when she finally does.
I had a German test yesterday. I pretty much looked at all the verb conjugations the hour before the test lol. But, actually, I think I did pretty well. I didn't think I'd do well at all but there were only a few questions I had trouble with. Plus she gave us an opportunity to earn extra credit, so I think that covers it. Got a test on Friday for Counseling. Haven't studied much. Test next Tuesday for Neuro. Haven't studied for that much either lol. Yeah, I'm a regular slacker. Grad school's gonna kick my ass. I have awful study habits.
