Joey's Thoughts

Airport Madness?!?!

Sitting at the airport right now… Finally got the cat to sleep. I had no idea that it would be such a big deal to get him sedated. At one point I was contemplating using a hammer, but than I realized that there was no way that I could get my money back from the operation.

—————–

My big brother will be picking us up at the airport. I am hoping that he has a case of beer waiting for me when we finally get back to the house. I am sure that I will need it.

Jack Attack

As you can see, we brought Jack home from the animal hospital in Saturday… He is doing really much better than we thought we would do, but the stitches are REALLY gross looking… He now wears a baby shirt to lounge around the house. I think that it brings out the color of his eyes.

Glass Is Half-Full

Well, our little orange face is still alive and kicking it… He came through surgery ok and is still at the vet. The doctor removed what I call “something”, and sent it to the lab. We should have a clearer picture of how long he is going to make it when the results get back (early next week)… He could have a few days, or 10 years. We don’t know.

The good news is that either way, we are going to get to bring him home in the next few days… Oh, and he got a really cool Mohawk hair-cut on his body so that they could do their work. He looks really intimidating.

We are now in the process of figuring out how we can take him home for the holidays. The thought of him alone and recovering in Florida for the holidays is heartbreaking… So the little shit is going to get a first-class trip home on Carrie’s lap.

I hope that the hard part is behind us… It has been really hard to stay strong through all of this… 78 has been amazingly strong and sad at the same time… and I have felt like I am going to throw-up every time the phone rings.

Can’t wait to have my friend home again.

Jackson

Say a little prayer for my cat, Jack… He is going into surgery this afternoon.

Good day

Crazy day… But one step closer to Christmas.
