Dear brain

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
I see you!
Okay, you have been awake and active since 3am. This is my day off and I would like to sleep in. That way I won't be cranky when people come over.
I would appreciate your compliance in this.

Yet another cherry popped...

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
I see you!
Yes, I did it. I took a shot of the Twitter Kool-Aid (SwitchySam). Downed it quickly enough that I didn't even taste it...
Now to figure out what the fuck I am doing...

I volunteered at Woodland Park Zoo today (which kicked my ass!) and found out that they are going to be closing the Night Exhibit due to budget cuts.
What a shame! It is such a cool exhibit.
No more watching the slow loris and the bats *pout*

Pink Glove Dance

I see you!
Medline put this video together to promote our new "pink glove" for breast cancer awareness.
A hospital in Portland volunteered to be the stars of the show. There are over 200 people in the video ranging from doctors and nurses to lab techs, cancer patients, cafeteria and housekeeping. Even the CEO of the hospital is in the video.

Hope this helps everyone get through their Friday.
I saw Wicked and I can't decide which version of this song I like better...

Finally

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
I see you!
Boy cat came home to us after a 5 day stay at the vet.
He was so pathetic when we would go visit with him. He did NOT like being there. We still don't know what caused all of it, but are keeping an eye on him. I won't say how much it cost for the whole process. *rolling eyes*
And he is very happy that we don't have to take his temperature 3 times a day anymore.
Just as important...he doesn't smell like the vet anymore so his sister has finally stopped hissing at him every time she took a sniff in his general direction.
So, the house is back to normal...whatever that means.
The upside is that I now know officially that we have a wonderful vet!

Worried mommy syndrome

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
I see you!
Last night Beldin, our boy kitty, wasn't acting like himself. I thought it would be a good idea to take him in today to have him checked out. When we told them his symptoms they told us that we should get him in now. Luckily, our vet does late hour emergency care so he got to the people that know him.
He was severely dehydrated and some weird gas bubbles showed up in his x-ray...so they kept him over night. We just found out that they are running more tests and they want to keep him until Monday.
Since the day we got both of them 7 years ago, they have never spent the night anywhere but here at home. Apparently, he did not take any of this well. Meowed all night and kept chewing his IV.
That's my boy. Causing havoc wherever he goes.

Update

I see you!
Okay, so it has been waaayy too long.

The 3 Day was awesome (in the Eddie Izzard meaning).

Opening Ceremonies was amazing. I did manage to carry a large flag, cry, AND walk up/down wet metal stairs without falling on my ass.

I had several people taking pictures of my shirts. The favorites were:
My Best Friend's Battle is My Battle
Walking the Streets to Save the Girls
Don't Pretend Like We Didn't See You in the Showers Last Night.

I did find that I suffered a more intense version of con drop for a few weeks after. Weird. Part of that may have been that I had a ton of work to catch up on after I got back and partly because I managed to tweak my knee. While going up hills sucks...going down hills will mess you up.

I had several wonderful 5 minute relationships.

But more importantly this year was more of an impact since my friend was going through chemo while I was walking. The signs, the music, the stories...if I think about them I just become a teary mess all over again.

Of course, I am signed up for it all again for next year.

I must be a masochist or something...

Okay, it has been awhile.

It seems like I am constantly in the process of getting ready for something. And working weird hours to make sure I get all my work done too.

Wicked was last Thursday (was that only a week ago????) Awesome. Awesome. And more awesome. Between those that joined in, the Bubble Yum, and the amazing show...I want to do it again!!

Paradise was fun. Even if there was record amounts of rain over the weekend. There was no point that I was ever completely dry. But the people made it all worth it!  And the energy pull was a win!

I just got home a bit ago from the walk thru of Opening Ceremonies. They did the whole thing with music and everything. And me without my Kleenex. *sigh*

I will start my voice posts tomorrow and will post occasionally through out the weekend.

Thank you all for an awesome birthday weekend!
Some of the important lessons I have learned over the few days:
-I suck at Rock Band...and I am okay with that.
-I apparently cheat at Scrabble...although *others* cheat more!
-I am a unicorn??  Who knew...
-Although avoiding crap food until the walk...one's birthday dinner does not count!
-And once again, I am reminded that I have most awesome-est friends!

Snow Leopard KITTENS!

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
I see you!
They went on view last weekend and I missed it. Probably would have been super crazy. But I *do* think that a visit is in my near future.

I wonder if the zoo would let me try to get them to yodel....

I love these guys! The cats faces are priceless. It is the "I will swallow your soul" look.

Wacky T-Mobile!

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
I see you!
My darling friend thought it would be a fun idea to text me a picture of her left boob with the scar for me to send everyone that donated to my 3 Day Walk. 

There was some discussion about the fact that the biopsy needle was 10 guage.  I did say that there were several out there (including myself) that would know exactly what that would feel like. 

And, truth be told, she has nice tits.  So bonus to you all...if I can get it to work...

T-Mobile keeps deleting the picture.  Anyone else have similar problems????
