More Lamar news!
From the Lamar Daily Snooze online: (note the time!)
2:41 a.m. Animal problem - Deputy Earls and Deputy Parker responded to the 7000 block of Hwy. 196 on a report of a cat stuck behind a refrigerator. The deputies rescued the cat without incident.
I think I should assure everyone that just because I only post the occasional GEM from the police or sheriff report, it doesn't mean we don't have actual crime here. We do. Not a lot, but we do have it. And there are tons of non-funny events reported too. I just feel like the really eye- and/or mind-boggling bits should be shared.
Speaking of cats, Souvy is doing very well post-op. The vet could not spot the shy testicle (now there's an idea for a reality/game show!) from the usual viewpoint, so he decided to go ahead and do an exploratory abdominal. Souvy was Not Happy Tuesday afternoon, but by Wednesday was feeling well enough to jump to the top of the kitchen cupboards. So it's fair to say everything came out okay....
In a funny co-incidence, since I had just posted about the wondrousness of Yaxtrax, the traction device you slip on over your shoes, as I walked in to fetch our boy at the vets, Dr. Eaton was talking about how he wished he could get snow chains for his feet! Luckily I had mine on and got to show him. He was amazed, and eager to know where to get some. I really wish I was on commission with these guys!
The last four days kind of went past in a blur, but I did get our taxes and all the tedious partnership paperwork sent in. I think this is the earliest I've gotten it done in years. Also, this year I am resolved NOT to forget to pay my self-employment tax when we get the refund!
Finally, here is a funny story for my coffee-loving friends. The other night I dreamed I was going around carrying a clear plastic bag, the size you would normally bag leaves in, which was half full with coffee. That would probably be 20 gallons or so! Every now and then I would unfasten the twisty tie thingie on the top and drink some. I remember telling someone that this was not a 'grande' size, it was a 'grandiosity' size.
Some weird stuff happened in the dream as well.
