(no subject)
i can't sleep.
i have the appointment with the psychologist lady tomorrow. of course, i want to cancel. unfortunately it's at 8:30 am (opening time) so really the only way to cancel is not to go. kim would kill me. it's her place and i would give her a bad name or something lol.
i'm worried about jasper and the allergies. i think his feet were better yesterday after i shampooed and creamed them (i tried not to look cos it stresses me out) but i stupidly took him to the park today and now they're red and angry again. i'm also mega annoyed at the vet we took him to. i've seen that vet before and wasn't very impressed. but it was a saturday and his feet were big and they were the only ones in the area that could fit us in. the idiot would not listen to me. i find that incredibly rude and patronising. when we went in i said that he's normally a beautiful dog but he doesn't like vets touching his feet. i told him that he's already snapped at a vet once and that i would rather be safe than sorry so i asked for a muzzle. i was holding him during the whole consultation cos he likes that better than being put on the table. so he put one on jasper, and looked at his feet. jasper hates the vets and, as usual, he froze. because the muzzle was on he didn't have the opportunity to lick his lips and pant and swallow lots like he usually does - all signs of stress. so the idiot vet pets him on the head and says 'oh you don't need this, let's take it off no need to scare you". then he goes on to keep examining jasper. luckily by that time he was finished looking at jasper's feet so nothing happened.
lkadsjfalskdjfalskdjfalsdkjf. i was too worried at that point to worry or be annoyed at the vet's stupidity, but come on. he is my dog, i live with him 24/7 i think i know him better than a vet who's spent a grant total of 4 minutes with him. and frankly, even if it is the vet's hand that gets bitten, he's my dog and i don't want to give my dog an opportunity to bite someone. ever. moronic idiotic vet.
so he tells us it's an allergy blah blah gives us a cream and a shampoo (because that's what i really want to be trying to rub into his feet when i'm afraid the dog may bite me) and some tablets. i push him and keep asking how why how long etc but the moronic vet neatly repeats his book-learnt spiel and doesn't directly answer my questions. he says we'll treat it as a once off for now (but doesn't tell me when to come back if the skin doesn't get better). i try to talk him into taking it a little more seriously because my head is working overtime at that point and i suspect that this isn't a 'new' allergy - i suspect it's been going on for a while but wasn't bad so we didn't notice. he just wouldn't listen to me. again, i know my dog and i'm not stupid - if i'm paying you please listen when i try to tell you that everything is not as you've made up your mind in the 4 mins you've been looking at the dog. nope, he sends me on my way telling me we may never know what's caused it. it's jasper - nothing is a myserious one off with him. so instead of looking at this aggressively and trying to find out the cause i'm supposed to sit on my bum and wait again until time proves that i'm right and moron vet wrong. aldkfjasdlfk i'm so mad at this dude. i might even write them a letter telling them why i'm not going back there. although that's what i said last time too - did i mention that they were the only vet in the area to fit me in lol.
i will call julie the vet tomorrow to book him to see her. she always listens to me (she has had the pleasure watching me be right every time and of watching everything that can go wrong with jasper go wrong). but i think she's not in until wednesday which gives me 2 1/2 days of stress. and i'll have to take more time off work which will prolly stress my boss out. oh well. julie is good. she listens to me and she gives me all the information in the world. then she lets me call her with a list of questions i've thought of after the consulation. plus she doesn't charge us for her time.
i hate moron vet. moron vet is expensive on top of being an idiot.
had another fight with kim.
i'm hungry
all of this = no sleep. no sleep = more chance of me not making it to the thing tomorrow. which of course will mean another fight with kim.
yay.
i hate hte moron vet. i'm angry and anger makes it hard to sleep lol
