Time For An Update
A lot of stuff has been happening recently...
About a week or so ago I went and saw my sister's new house, it was pretty awesome, though I have yet to see it with all of the furniture set up.
On Wednesday, I went to a gay rights protest. I had a few things to do, so I was a bit late, but it was fun.
Friday... Just sucked. I got home from work at around 11 and found out my parents took my cat, whom I had for 13 years now, to the vet. They weren't sure what was wrong with her, just that her sides were bloated. So when they got to the vet, the vet said that she could have a blockage, a tumor or cancer; and they wouldn't know more until they took xrays the next day. When my mom told me of this, I was in shock/denial for a while, not really able to take it in at all. Around midnight, I just broke down. I think I cried for at least an hour until I cried myself to sleep.
I had to go to work Saturday, and I started right at the time they told my parents to call in for the results. So at about 15 minutes after I started work I called home to see what they had to say. The vets weren't able to determine anything, so they wanted to do an ultrasound in about an hour. So the hour passes, and I call my dad. He told me the vets found a clear liquid in her abdomen area, and weren't sure what caused it. It might be heart failure, which I'm hoping to the gods it's not. But I'm glad it's not cancer. They want to do more tests and will tell us the results tomorrow.
Before this all happened, my friend, Shaanti, wanted to go to the movie theatre and see the Grudge II. I wanted to see that movie pretty bad so I accepted. When I found out what happened to my cat, I thought I'd of found out the results today, so I called and left a voice message to cancel. If my cat was alright, I wanted to give her non-stop attention, and if she had to be put down, I just wanted to be left alone. But since I wasn't able to find out anything today, I knew I had to do something in order to stop thinking about it, since I was worrying all day, and getting physical pains from worrying so much.
So I left another message and told Shaanti to dismiss my last message. We, and a few other people ended up seeing a different movie than planned, The Prestige. Afterword, we went to Sharies to get something to eat. The waiter was hilarious, and obviously gay, but so was 2/3rds of our group so we had a fun time talking with him. But whenever the waiter handed me my food or my check he'd wink at me, and then while I was paying, I retold the story where Shaanti was gnawing at my shoulder for some reason I still don't know, and he said he'd bite me all over. @_@
That outing got my mind to stop worrying for a while, not the whole time, but enough so I wasn't clutching my side like I was at work.
I'm just hoping I get some good news tomorrow today. And I just hope I'll find out before having to go into work.
