Big weekend! Sounds great. :thumbup:
Thanks.
It will be stressful too, but also interesting.
and i'm out of chocolate. i wish there was a drive-through chocolate kiosk.
I love chocolate.
Normally I buy only very dark chocolate, because I don't munch it all up but instead nibble on it for a long time. But yesterday I thought "what the heck" and bought the best tasting very expensive chocolate I know.
The pain killers are strong enough to get her through the weekend without much pain so everyone can say goodbye, but on Monday she being put down.
I'm sorry to hear this. In the flat I shared with friends for 10 years, we also had a cat. It was an old cat. After I've been living there for about 6 years, it started to bleed and become incontinent: bladder cancer. The vet told us she was in no pain. We didn't know what to do. On the one hand, can we really let her live that way? Bleeding and peeing everywhere and being weak all the time? But then again she felt no pain, so would we have any right to put her asleep? Shortly after Christmas, which she spent sleeping under the radiator in my room, we decided to put her asleep, since it was getting worse and worse and it was hard to find out when she actually was in pain. She had a long about 20 year long interesting life.
In other news, since I got a smartphone for about a year, I also joined some group there which friends created which is about doing stuff in this city. Yesterday some suggested going to a club called Shadow in a nearby town. I've been there two or three times, and it's nice, but I didn't feel like it. Some people suggested to first meet at a pub. Since also my closest friend went there, plus a friend I like a lot but see rarely, I decided to go there and say 'hello'. It's only about 10 minutes by bike to that place anyway.
At first I was a bit worried. Mostly because I haven't showered yet and just came from a long work day, but I'd had no time to shower either. So I spent the last few minutes before leaving with gaming, which then took a bit longer so I'd be somewhat late, but I thought "well, most of them will be late too". And then I hopped on my bike and went there. I've been to that pub about three times before. So I entered, and it was super crowded and noisy. I looked around, and didn't see my friends. I looked to the left part of the pub: none there. I squeezed through the masses to the right side of the pub: none there. Guys laughing, girls with their mobile phones, people drinking, no friends. I got sad. I thought "they already left for the club?", and I wondered about what the people there might think about the guy who entered and walks around in circles. So I went to the left side again and searched more thoroughly, and there they were sitting, squeezed in an edge of the pub. And when they saw me they smiled and cheered and my best friend hugged me and said "I just messaged you and asked whether you'd come over!" and another friend said in a friendly jokingly way "you? In this pub? How did that happen?".
I stayed for about an hour, not that long compared to other people, but good enough for me. It was a nice hour. We chatted about this and that, and that friend who I rarely meet, who is great with crafting and knitting and stuff, upon seeing my old falling apart mobile phone bag, promised me to craft a new bag for me for my birthday, with the logo I had on my t-shirt on it if I'd like to. I was a bit embarassed since she and another friend of mine, who love crafting, were talking all the time about how to make it the best for me, and I tried to switch the subject, which finally worked.
