This is why I spoiler myself...
Jul. 24th, 2005 10:30 amOkay, someone out there tell me *specifically* what happens at the end of Samurai Champloo. I mean it. I've run into some fic that makes me go 'uhwha?', and dammit, I want to know for sure. I spoiler myself so I don't get any ugly surprises, especially when it's a series I'm really liking and I've addicted friends to and dammit, hello, *favorite character*. >( Fsck, I think I really know already--I mean, I'm not dumb, I can figure out what the fics hint--but it...dammit, it pisses me off. Why do series always fscking do this to me. Probably a good thing that I'm giving up on the Naruto fandom--no point in seeing favorite characters get ruined only to watch the mangaka screw them over eventually, too. Fsck.
Anyway. Friday was a truly sweet attempt at Onyxia. No party wipes at all--in fact, our group got her in one slick attempt. Nice and precise, a smooth execution of instructions--and only a few deaths, and those persons were rezzed before we brought Ony down. And I survived the whole damned thing. Yee. Ha. Nice to see my character's not totally useless.
And I've paid off Ekat for that dagger, so I don't have to farm Tyr's more if I don't want to (going occasionally will be fine, tho). I determined I'm a horrible person (wait, I knew that already), because for a short time at Tyr's yesterday, I was randomly invited to join a party by what I'm certain was a Chinese gold farmer. At the least, we certainly didn't speak the same language. But I am darned sure they were, and I stayed in the party with them until they ditched me for another most-likely-Chinese-gold-farmer, because it make for easy and faster killins. I'm going to gamer hell. And regular hell.
And Crystal...brought her home Friday evening, and she seemed to be perked up some. She seemed interested a bit in the wet cat food (same as we serve Bebop), and wasn't eating much but tried a little. Then yesterday she really would barely touch it, and it got worse as the day went on--and her temper worsened. Then by afternoon she wouldn't/couldn't even eat the pill pocket cat treat (really looked like she was having trouble chewing). So she went back to the vets for more overnight care (while I had a stress-out breakdown in front of Kelly, Gina, and Anj, lucky lucky them. I really rather fucked up our evening). Turns out that in addition to her thyroid levels needing restabilizing, and to having a UTI, one of her teeth is absessed. They'd been thinking she needed dental work anyway, but didn't want to until the thyroid was more under control. But now once the infection part's cleared up (she was on antibiotic for the UTI anyway, so that's good I guess), they have to do dental care and deal with that tooth.
At the least, the kidney stone's not so much an issue anymore. It's still there, but turns out it's in the right ureter, and the right kidney is the one that's nonfunctional for her. The left ureter is clear for the functional left kidney, BUN and creatine levels have always been fine. So it's probably been there awhile, and can stay there, and shouldn't get worse and cause her problems. Which is good, as I don't think an old, underweight cat that's already struggling with thyroid and other issues really needs a three hour drive, invasive surgery, followed by another three hour trip.
Anyway, earache bugging me, and my head and throat's full of junk. Trying to hotpack that ear and getting Motrin for it and for this headache that's trying to come back. I fucking hate my allergies, and I hate this state. Speaking of this state, more 100 degree/100% humidity days. When I'm in a good mood, I've been referring to it as temp: jeezusfsckit'shot and humidity: liquid. Don's/Don's today, and I really don't want to go to either. At least first Don's has AC he actually uses. I'm dreading second Don's in this weather. And I just don't want to. I want to sleep, and stay home, and go to the grocery store like I need to, and get my prescription refills, and play low level WoW alts.
I shouldn't have been doing computer stuff without my glasses. >< Damned eyestrain on top of it all.
