It slapped me in the face. A headline on the Star Tribune my mother bought.

"Bohemia is gone, sleek and polished is in"

Nooooooo!

Do you realize what this means? My favorite style in the whole wide world is going to be impossible to find! I knew this year was going to be bad... I knew it... First bubble skirts, now this... I'm going to have one hell of a time finding clothing I like. Damn.

On another note lol Will's almost in NY, he just text me saying he can see Manhattan, so like ten minutes more. And idk if he'll take a cab or not, so I can't say how long until he gets home. He took the train from NC, so he left about 7am. He's going to be tired but this has got to be easier on him because of the leg room.

We took Tiger to the vet today. Some good news some bad. Good news is they don't think we need to jump to putting him down because he's still very alert. Bad news is, we had both vets in there with us (they love Tigger), and they both said we need to think about it.

To fill in some gaps, he hadn't eaten in four days and is skinny as a rail. Dr B got him to eat some though and sent us home with the same food he got Tigger to eat, and I got Tig to eat more when we got home. THAT was a huge relief.

I can't say I'm not scared we'll have to put him down, I am, very, he's my baby. But he's 12 yrs old and not in peak condition. I know when it's past trying to make a cat better, and when it's just pure selfishness. If he can't life comfortably, I shouldn't be doing everything in my power to make him live miserably. Sometimes I wonder why people can't think that way when it comes to sick humans too. Having a grandfather die of cancer and my other grandpa die very slowly from complications from removing a brain tumor that was benign (and wasn't causing ANY issues), I really have to wonder sometimes, how we can be so selfish in keeping people terminally ill alive so long.

But anyway...

I'm SO excited about NY. I really can't tell you. It's finally kicking in with me and I'm going nuts lol I wanna hurry up and go and at the same time I'm wanting to completely savor this. The trips go by way too fast.

So how's everyone doing? Plans for Labor Day etc?

Oh btw... Today my aunt Carol called. It was 106 today there. Hehe... So glad I'm not her. Then she laughed when I said that and said "Wait until it's 30 below this winter and I'm in the 70s, see who wants to be where then" lol I laughed. Because she's not really right for one thing, I'm actually pretty used to the instant death cold lol Doesn't make me hate it less though. I sometimes think I should litter train Biscuit...

Anyone know how to litter train a 90lb dog? I was thinking of using a kiddie pool...
