It's been a bit since I posted! That means, time for a bullet list update!

Things I have been up to, or whatever:

~ I am just seven short weeks from being DONE with school. I've started dreaming about writing fiction again, instead of academic papers. No lie.

~ Mass Effect 3. 6 DAYS, BABY!! In the meantime, I have been playing the demo, which is ( Read more... )

Thankfully, the vet seems very certain the lumps are not cancerous. However, the one is large enough to be of concern, and they do want to remove it before it gets any bigger.

But the lumps aren't the immediate issue, apparently. Her neck is. Like people, dogs can hurt their necks and spines, and somehow, she has. When we touched her, she would ( Read more... )

Hello livejournal. It's been one of those nights. I went to bed at 11:00. Zoey, our lab/husky mix, is having a bad night, and like kids and parents, when she has a bad night, so do I. An hour after going to sleep, she got me up to let her out. And again, twenty minutes after that. She hasn't been able to settle down, and rather than keep the ( Read more... )

So, now that the Christmas madness is out of the way, I've finally sat down and gone through every single donation to Julius's surgery and entered them all into the random number generator. If you donated $5, you got 1 entry. If you donated $50, you got 10, and so on.

Julius, btw, is doing so much better. I think I need to take him back in to the ( Read more... )

Just a note to update everyone who placed orders to help Julius. I'm working my way through them as quickly as possible. I'm not actually used to receiving so many orders at once, so it created a small backlog. I know some of you haven't recieved yours yet, or a shipping notification, but my goal is to get them all out this week. You should receive ( Read more... )

We hates it, precious!

Mark and I were at a wedding earlier, so this is the first chance I've had to post. Julius is doing fine. They ended up having to remove his top two canines in addition to the four molar teeth, and he is spending the night at the vet because we were already at the wedding by the time they called us, and couldn't come get him before closing. So, ( Read more... )

I'm considering donations officially closed for Julius. Thank you all so very much...he goes in for surgery tomorrow. Despite the antibiotics, he is clearly still a very sick cat. He gave me a scare today, not responding when I called for him, and couldn't find him anywhere in the house (he is indoor only). I eventually found him curled up sleeping ( Read more... )

Wow, you guys. Just...wow. I woke up this morning, and it all seems so unreal. Between jewelry sales and donations, my paypal account has almost $700!! I'm going to go ahead and call the vet this morning to schedule the surgery. Even if it ends up being higher than the conservative estimate, I know they'll let me split it into a couple of payments ( Read more... )
