I feel so badly--mean cat owners putting cats in boxes

Feb 11, 2013 18:28

I just had to drop Wooster cat off at the kennel. He hates getting in the cat carrier so much. He doesn't actively fight it, but he doesn't cooperate either. His little heart starts pounding. I apologized like a million times. I had the hardest time getting him into it today, but he's at the vets and he's safe. We have painters coming in to fix our water damaged ceilings this week and so I didn't want to leave him here with a pet sitter while that was happening. Who knows if they'd accidentally let him out--plus the fumes and strangers. Just no. In future we'll get a pet sitter because a week is a long time to be at the kennel.

I don't like being home alone without him and without David. It makes the apartment feel all weird and empty.

It's raining today and some of the snow is melting, but most of it is still in giant piles. There are ridiculous deep icy puddles at intersections where the storm drains are blocked. Some of the sidewalks are not completely cleared so you have to walk across icy little bridges of compacted snow. I was so nervous the whole walk to the vet that I would fall and hurt Bertie or that his carrier would break open and he'd like run into traffic. It was fine though. I was very careful.

One nice thing is that people are watching out for other people and encouraging them on the sidewalks. I was ready to grab two different people I almost saw slip. One kid told me I was brave to wade through an eight foot puddle that was about 10 inches deep. Boots are good. It's nice when people are looking out for each other even if they don't know each other.

CVS is out of Adderall again. This happens every third time I go in. It's annoying enough to have to fill a paper script and show an ID every month, but I get why. It's a controlled substance. I just wish they weren't out of it so often. I didn't have the energy to get on the subway at rush hour and go to Harvard Square--so I'll take the Rx with me and hopefully I can fill it in Austin. You can do that right? Fill a paper script in a different state? It seems like I should be able to, but it's not the end of the world if I can't. It's not great though because the adderall does have a bit of an antidepressant affect and my mood is affected if I stop taking it for more than a day or two at a time. *sigh*

Flight early tomorrow. I've been to Texas a couple of times, but never to Austin. I'm really looking forward to the warmer weather and spending Valentine's day with David. Which reminds me I need to make a dinner reservation somewhere. Hopefully it's not too late.
