Kuma got neutered this week! He's been more tolerant of me petting him but the doctor said he's to be on strict "bed rest" = no playing. It's hard to keep that little booger from playing. Here are pix of his first day back from surgery:
I thought I would enjoy the peace and quiet while he was gone but sadly I missed him. The surgery site was pretty inflamed and swollen but now it looks much better. I have to go for a follow-up to make sure everything healed up nicely next week --; I hate making the drive up to the vet but the doctor knows what he's doing so meh. I spoil him too much.
I also caught up w/some friends before I decided to close myself off before the incident; they think I got hair extensions, which I don't know if I should find it flattering or not? My hair is a lot more healthier than it was before and I really cut back on smoking. One confessed to me she was jealous of my long hair, little does she know that I haven't cut my hair for a year. And honestly, thinking about it, I don't think I'm exaggerating. We ate at J. Alexander's, sometimes a good steak & taters heals the soul:
I've been feeling doomy + gloomy for the past couple of days but gradually I've been starting to perk up. Hopefully I can keep it at bay. Sometimes it overwhelms me and I always try to figure out new methods on how to make it go away.
I miss the city. I'm seriously considering applying to med schools near/in Georgetown. Is it sad that I actually like going to school? My mom bitches all the time about how long I've been in school for and of course I'm ashamed but it doesn't mean I like to dwell on it. Sometimes I wish I could just turn my brain off, have dreamless nights, and not think.
