Mental Health Day

I've been dying to take a day off just to be able to take some time for myself. I decided that today would be the day.

A lot has happened these last few weeks and thus, will now only be glossed over, bullet-point style:

• Lucretia ended up having dental surgery after all. The tooth that was suppose to fall out never did and she was starting to act funny. The vet removed the tooth, cleaned out the infected area, and stitch up her gum. She finished her antibiotics, which she thankfully loved. This was the first time I had to give her internal medicine and I was a little worried how she would do. Her fur is slowly growing back in the patches that were shaved off.
• Jenn and Len visited me for a weekend. We had a Guitar Hero tournament with Stephen and Lindsay; toured Capital Brewery; had dinner with Steph, Chris, and Jon; ended up on the terrace to listen to DJs and  freestylers while playing games; then went to Chris' for some Wii fun. Next day the 3 of us went to see Kraftwerk in Milwaukee, which was totally worth the trip. Plus I got to see Jimbo afterward too.
• Went home for the weekend to visit my family. Saw Sweeney Todd with Todd and MJ that weekend.
• Went on a...date (?) with an ex. He was my last serious boyfriend, and we hadn't seen each other in almost 2 years. I'm not sure what to call what's going on now. Not sure if anything is really going on since the things that were broken in our relationship still exists. I was under the impression he wanted to get back together, but I need some time to think. I also need time to see if things are really different this time around. I don't think they are, but I'm willing to give him the chance to prove me wrong.
• Last weekend, went to visit Jenn and Len in Ypsi. Saw Mary and Andy, which was nice. Hadn't seen them since Jenn got married over 2 years ago. Jenn and Len had a Tres de Mayo party and it was a great time. We hung out in Ann Arbor for the day yesterday with Ceren, and that was fun.

I left Lucretia at my parents' house so that RJ could cat-sit. My parents are out of town now, so RJ had the whole house to himself. I came here last night to pick her up and decided to stay the night. Now that I have the whole house to myself, I plan on practicing the drums on Rock Band before heading back home.

Oral surgery for a cat sucks.  My little old man had most of his top teeth extracted a year ago.  It hurt my pocketbook almost as much as it hurt his poor little mouth!  He's fine now.  He just drools a little bit more.

Aww, poor guy! Why did he have to get his teeth removed?

His teeth were rotting!  He had such bad breath because of it too.
