back in tulsa

[monicker]

So we're back, and my cat began meowing like crazy, which of course freaked me out because the last time he was doing it he was throwing up. Or, rather, one of the last times I heard him meow he threw up. Anyway, I'm totally stressed out about this cat who has been fine and not thrown up at all in the last two and a half weeks according to the people who watched him. Why do I get so worked up about these things? I know he's fine, he's acting fine, and yet my stomach is in knots every time I hear him, and even when I don't. Of all the things to lose it over, why this cat? Having a pet is supposed to help people, not stress them to death. And where did the stress come from? I was fine until a day before we left for California.

It's like I'm incapable of relaxing. Ugh.
