It’s been awhile…

In fact like, almost two weeks. Long enough to be asked if I’d fallen off the face of the Earth (thanks for the concern Holli). So because my fans are calling here it is. Probably not as hughly anticipated as a new Harry Potter book, but hey, when you’ve got requests…
Well, the last few weeks have been filled with wedding and cats, and Applebee’s. I’ve had a few tests but nothing exciting in class, except that I got to play with my professor’s blood, making drops at different angles, footprints, blood drops on different surfaces, weapon impressions. He said he got tested for hepatitis and HIV so if we managed to swallow or get any blood in open wounds, we probably won’t die of liver or auto-immune disorders. Yeah!
As I said in the last posts, the cats had worms. Roundworms. Well, I gave them the Rid Worm Paste and the next day, I found out which cat had worms–both. They both had like 8 or 9 roundworms in their feces the next day. The piperizidine in the worming stuff anesthesizes any worms in the intestines and they defecate them out, It doesn’t do anything to worms that are in earlier stages, that live in the lungs or liver, so they have a wellness check (for free!) tomorrow, so I will probably pay to give them shots there, and then do the cheap paste later. If you give it a few weeks, worms mature into the stage that live in the intestine, so I have to keep giving it for awhile because my mom says the cats can’t come home for Christmas with me if they still have worms, even though they couldn’t give him worms. But, I suppose it is good for Bear and Bitty to get rid of their worms. They don’t need to eat for 10.
I am also done with training for carside to go. i am now not only a host, but a To-Go Specialist. But Bryce gets to train for a server next week, so I don’t know who’s cooler. He won’t ever work as Carside, so thats why he didn’t train for it. I do it on Monday and Friday mornings mostly, and he works at ADP, so, that’s how that goes. Money for one of us is money for both of us.
I can’t believe it is almost Thanksgiving – we have been out here for three months, and one more to go before we come home. Yeah! We are leaving on Friday, Dec 22 and arriving home on Saturday, weather dependent, in Bryce’s new car and with cats in tow. We’ll be leaving on Saturday the next weekend and getting back Sunday hopefully, but Bryce doesn’t work Monday either, cause it’s New Year’s, but we don’t know if we want to be driving home, or if we want to get back to hang out here. We’ll see.
While we are home, we have lots to do. Need to get engagement phtots, bridesmaids dresses, tuxes, our rings, flower consultation, the cake person, etc. Busy busy! but we still want to see everyone, so hopefully we can spend some evening with everyone. For those who don’t know or remember, 7-7-07, Zion Lutheran and then Matador! Fun to be had! We are trying to line up all the people to be involved and asking them, as well as lining up the different places and peripheral people (DJs, etc.). So, don’t get married kids, it’s too much work.
I have a video, for at leat Miles and Holli, from Bear and Bitty thanking them for the catnip turtle. I wish I could get one of them playing with Tony’s furry mice, but they’ve destroyed them. And the gold things they play with and leave it in the cat bowl in between, but the catnip in the turutle made them go crazy over the turtle. I will have Bryce figure this out soon, since now that I mentioned it, everyone is excited.
Things Bryce and I and pals have done recently: went to Borat, got a little grossed out and laughed a little. Held a “wine and cheese” at my place, drank wine, ate goat cheese, had a headache for work. Went to Stranger Than Fiction, thought was great! Super original, and very refreshing – a must see! Next up is Thanksgiving, hosted by us. We will have four of my classmates (one BF in there) from Wisconsin so we aren’t all alone for the holidays. Grey’s is having a special episode, I’ll have a turkey, we’ll make all the trimmings. A good time will be had!
Well, there you have it. I have a test to do tomorrow, and I’m Carsiding it, as well as take the cats to the vet and pick up the turkey, and go to class. Cripes!

Save some of the worms so you can go fishing. Get it? Worms, fishing… get it?

My dog just got worms too!! Not that it is really exciting that all of our pets had it at the same time, but nice to know that I’m not the only pet parent with problems.
