I was going to turn the page at work beginning today -- new and better attitude. That lasted about two hours -- my boss is an idiot and an asshole. I have meetings with him later today and have fortified myself with alcohol.
Meeting postponed until tomorrow, although I made some points in another one. I still have a job, but I’m not 1) happy, and 2) sure how long it will last. So it goes.
Good news/bad news for Jack Tatum. He had his most extensive medical checkup last week and we talked to the vet today about most of the results -- still waiting on x-rays. The bad news is he has feline aids -- no he’s not gay altho I will start referring to him as “Mrs Sven’s gay cat” -- it’s something called FIV: Feline Immunodeficiency Virus. Good news is his white blood cell count is fine, he’s put on weight over the last year -- up to 14 pounds -- and altho somewhat lethargic the last three months, he shows no other symptoms of FIV. All other blood work came back fine. No parasites.
He does have leg /lower body tremors and that’s the x-ray part of this -- to see if there’s something skeletal wrong.
For a cat, he’s not half bad and we’ll do what we can for him. After eight years, he’s grown on me a little bit even tho he’s taken to hissing at me from time to time for no good reason. I think he senses the blacker parts of my soul rising to the surface. Must work on that.
Happy Monday, GN.
Happy “morning face” Monday, Gerbil Nation!
Good morning, Sven!
Another busy morning, trying to organize my classes, emails, etc.
Yeah, I can see this happening.

Good thing you’re working from home.
Good luck with the meetings.

I am sorry, Sven. He has been blessed to be a part of your family.
The good news is that with treatment, he can live many more years.
