smother

today was the first time in a long time i called my mom to chat.  except for xmas day, i think it had been about a year since i called her to talk.  i know it sounds incredibly odd, but that is how it is.  or, as my aunt sandy would existentially put it "it is what it is".

i had to call mom tho to bounce off some ideas about the cat and get her feedback.  she's had plenty of experience in sick and ailing felines and so i do turn to her for assistance in these times.  she's all in favour of me getting the dental for sid, so i think i'm doing the right thing.

when we were talking, tho, we thought that maybe it's best for her to get it march 3rd and then bring her home for the 2 days and then send her back to be boarded while i'm in maui so that she does get proper care...

tomorrow i'm calling the vet to see if there are earlier openings than march 3rd, and if not, then rebooking for the 3rd if i can get boarding in addition to it.

still...i am kicking myself for not doing any of this earlier...jesus.
