that going to bed before one would end badly. I just woke up 20 minutes ago with my back on fire. A quick check of the area answered what my lungs already had told me, hives all over my back and radiating outward to the rest of my body. I can feel my lungs filling with fluid and my eyes slolwly swelling up. What the hell did I get into that I'm

There's this old couple sitting in rocking chairs on the porch, just rocking. Without warning, the old man picks his cane up, leans over, and SLAMS it down across the old lady's thighs.

"OW! What on Earth?! Have you gone mad?"
"No, that's for 50 years of bad sex."

The woman looks flabbergasted, but goes back to rocking.

A few minutes later, the old lady picks up her knitting bag, and slaps the man across the face with it.

"What the Hell was that for, Woman?"
"For knowing the difference."

Oh boy. LOL

Hey, the request was just for a joke; it wasn't specified that it be a good joke!

[shadowerealm]

True enough and I always like a good groaner ;)

I was hoping that I'd replied soon enough you'd get it while you were still awake in the middle of night, but I guess I missed.

I was up until around 5 but not online as much. I was doing my best not to check on Aengus every 5 minutes. He's up and down today, he got a shit load of subcue fluids so I'm sure that's making him feel sluggish, still not eating or drinking on his own but does have moments of high energy and has no trouble taking treats but has no interest in his regular kibble. He's not totally opposed to eating 'duck soup' out of a syringe though. I'm trying not to push a whole lot today considering all the stress and fluids we pushed into him. Honestly I'm at my breaking point though, ,with finances and having recently lost Missy I'm on the edge of my own emotional crisis.

What's up with Aengus? Did I miss a post about him while I was offline/moving?

[shadowerealm]

He stopped eating and drinking. Friday night it was very obvious that he was rejecting food and water and he was lethargic and acting odd. I was able to get him to eat some food from a syringe but not a whole lot and he vomited up a very little bit at one point. I was able to get him int to see a vet Saturday afternoon and we pumped him full of subcues. I honestly didn't think we'd be able to get all that she brought in, into him but we did. Needless to say I didn't try forcing to much food on him that night due to all the trauma. He was pretty energetic going into the vets and after calming down for a few hours perked back up last night. We couldn't feel anything that would be causing an obstruction but decided that if things kept up that Monday we should consider blood tests and an ex-ray

Well that's sounding promising, anyway. Hopefully it's just a food change related upset stomach and not something serious/permanent. Remind me how old Aengus is?

[shadowerealm]

Aengus is probably getting ready to turn 5. I think he was born late '03. He's looking and feeling much better today, I just walked in and found him eating on his own. He gave me kisses when I pulled him out which is a good sign, the definitive sign will be when I steal something out of his nest and he snags it back from me and puts it back.

[draggonlaady]

Excellent!

Yeah I'm ready for things to go on an upswing around here.
