Please kill me....
I've been trying to kick this cold's ass since I got it, but it's just getting worse. I had to cancel on Dayna today cause I couldn't get out of bed. I was up all night coughing and hacking. Ick... Went and got some Oregano yesterday and I'm hoping that helps boost my immune system. I'm hoping this goes away soon because working when I'm sick sucks. At least I'll be able to be on a computer on Monday. That will help tremendously.
Aside from being sick, this week has pretty much sucked (except for Saturday hangin' out at Amanda's). I've lost some ratties due to old age and stupid cage escapes this week. Lost two babies when they escaped their cages and met an unexpected demise. I'm still upset over that one. I feel like such a failure. On the 10th, I lost Foxy to old age (about 2 years old) , then the 13th, I lost her daughter Mellow Gold who wasn't that much younger than her (about 4 months) and then later that night, I lost Sweet William to old age (32 months old). These were all technically 'Diane' rats, but it still hurts alot. It's just not the same walking into the rat room and not seeing them. I'm expecting more of my 'oldsters' to go in the next coming months. Damn old rats... Well, I'm off to make some chicken soup and exist.
