quick update
1. TNG had cancer surgery yesterday, which went well and they think they got all the tumor. I get to bring her home tonight and she will look ridiculous because they shaved her entire butt. However while she was under they gave her x-rays and determined that she has severe hip dysplasia. (I knew she was having some trouble, but not that it was so far along. Bad owner.) So in future there will be less running for her, and a new cushy bed (which she will destroy, because that's what she does). And glucosamine and fish oil.
2. Dad's doing okay but there may be something neurological going on. Sigh.
3. Job is okay except that I'm spending so much time dealing with TNG and my Dad's doctor visits etc. that I'm going to have a hard time finding enough PTO at Christmas. Bah.
4. In better news, I discovered Manhattan on Hulu, and why isn't anyone talking about this show? The cast is great -- it includes Olivia Williams from Dollhouse as the disgruntled scientist wife of a scheming physicist working at Los Alamos during WWII. Also Richard Schiff as a terrifying security investigator/interrogator.
I'm watching it in binges--2 or 3 episodes at a time, and I'm about 7 episodes in. Definitely recommend it if you have any interest in period dramas, and it's also a commentary on the modern security state.
It aired originally on WGN, but the first season is already over. If you get Hulu Plus, you can watch it. Give it a try!
