I have a heinous viral thing, aka a "bug," which goes to town on my body for several days, assuming nothing can stop it, and then, finally, my stupid white blood cells remember they're supposed to be helping me with exactly this kind of thing and they start battling it out. Eventually either the virus keels over clutching its abdomen, or I die. Fingers crossed.
This is much worse: my dog, Lucky, the crazy, loveable best dog in the whole world, has managed to tear a ligament in her leg and she's limping around. It makes me want to stick my head in the oven. (It's electric, though, so that really won't do.) The vet says that ligaments don't heal, so I don't know what he'll be able to do for her. Why do dogs have to be mortal? I can accept that I'll get old and die, but dogs, cats, deer, rabbits, and horses should really be made impervious to death and pain. They don't deserve it!
Oh yeah, and I went to England and Scotland for two weeks---but more on that after I stop popping decongestants and asprin and I can eat something other than saltines.
