since archie's distress and emergency last saturday i've become obsessed with checking the litter box.  these cats have never ever had such a clean box in all their almost 6 years.  i hope i'm not speaking too soon when i say that archie seems to be feeling better.  he's peeing and eating and best of all his last pill was this morning.  last saturday when the tech was showing me how to pill my ginger chubby, i felt like i was going to cry but a nervous laugh came out instead.  the vet tech gave me a handfull of water syringes and carried archie out to the car for me.  he felt sorry for me i guess.

i just watched life in a day and i absolutely loved it.  people all over the world really are the same and yet are so different too.  but the differences are shallow and the sameness is deep.  same kinds of sorrows and joys, fears and loves, trials and triumphs.  and so much beauty and courage and humour. good good stuff.

sleepy.
