too much pee

12-13-12

What do you mean I have to come back to work?

It’s cool, I really don’t mind that much. It was a nice day of kid stuff. There were only a few hiccups, which were corrected and overcome, so overall everything went smoothly. Bobby did his singing which was fun to see again. Ken and I were then able to help out in Dax’s class for his party, which I enjoyed quite a bit. I think Mr. Williams was also quite happy to have the help.

Poor Bobby is still adjusting to his glasses. He has had a couple of headaches, and even felt a bit dizzy yesterday. It is making him a bit tired. We called the optometrist to verify this was ok, and they said this was normal, and to just have him wear them a little less at first to get adjusted.

CREEPY!!! So I have been playing around with LinkedIn off and on and getting connected to some of my coworkers and even some customers. It has actually been more of something for me to do when I am bored, just kind of seeing who is on there. Recently, one of my customers connected to me on there and he sends me a note saying something about it being nice to have a face to the chick who always hounds him for money. It was meant in good fun, and it was let go at that point. A few days later, he sends me another message on there saying my picture was pretty. Ok, I will take a compliment. Just because some customer says I am decent looking doesn’t mean he is gross, right? I thanked him and he then responded quickly, telling me it wasn’t fair that the picture was only half. I was confused, so I wondered if perhaps I had uploaded my profile pic wrong. I verified it was in fact ok, and asked what he was talking about. He proceeded to tell me how he wanted to see a full picture of me. Sigh, ok, dude is being a smidge yicky, and I explained that the pic was simply one I took with my phone. He then sends me a message saying he would like me to send him my pictures to his phone so he could, “keep all to my sel promise that is very hot... if you would not mind i would love to have..all to my self.” Holy fuck, ewww. Oh, but wait, there is more. He sends another message saying, “fyi what we say stays between what we say ...promise....way to many big mouths out there today ...if that is okay with you.got my word”. Dude. I stopped responding and just laughed a bit at creepy guy. I was surprised when he didn’t say anything all day yesterday, assuming that he probably got the message and moved on. Nope. I got in this morning to find a voicemail from him asking if he had scared me off and wanted to just say hi. Eww.

It appears that I only have to deal with Bobby on homework tonight. Mr. Williams is not assigning any tonight, nor is he over the holidays. This is ok with me. I have plenty of things he can practice on. Bobby’s doesn’t look too bad, either, so they both get a break.

I am considering having Ken take the boys to their birthday party on Saturday and I will go Christmas shopping instead. I figure we both don’t need to be there, and I have some shopping that needs to be done. As much as I hate going places during the holidays, and especially going by myself blows, I think it best to not drag them along.

Ittles, or as she is known more recently, Princess Piddles, is hell bent on making me kick her ass. I caught her in the act of peeing in Lycos’ bowl on Tuesday, and found her shitting on the bathroom rug yesterday. Pans have been clean, but she seems upset about something. Sadly, I am not feeling warm and fuzzy towards her enough to figure out what is wrong. She also pissed on Dax’s comforter. It means over these next few days I need to make sure the house is in pee lockdown. Doors have to be closed, all items on the floor picked up, and perhaps considering one of the happy collars for her as well.

As if her pee wasn’t bad enough, Lycos is insistent on not letting us know when she has to pee at night, and she creates a Lycos Lake by Ken’s chair every night. Even when we get up to let her out, she manages to take this as permission to drink more water and then pee again. I suppose some of this is my fault, being that I brought the watering hole down to dog level so that I didn’t have to keep filling a bowl for them. She is old, so I do cut her some slack. Also, dog piss is significantly less potent than cat piss. She also does only pee in the same spot every time, which happens to be an area that is easy to clean up. I am considering putting down those puppy pads, but last time I put down towels, she simply peed in front of them.
