They Could have at least Called

I waited all day for the vet to call me today. Kinda frustrating. I dropped Cammy off at the vet for her 9am appt this morning and they took her back to get a urine sample but came back out and said her bladder was empty to they were going to have to keep her until she peed. I told them that I ad to work from 11-1pm, so they could call me on my cell phone and let me know that I could pick her up. By 1:30 I had not heard from them, so I stopped by on the way home from the store. She had not peed yet, so they told me they would call when I could come her. At 4:15 I still had not heard from them. So I called. The doctor was just about the take her back and try to get her urine sample. So I guess she still had not peed. Which is weird because she pees all day here. I know because I end up cleaning up half of it. And she gets up constantly during the night. They said they would call when he was done. So I waited. Again. And waited. At 5:30 I finally called them.....again. I was told I could pick her up anytime before 6pm. I'm only about 2 miles from the vet so I went and got her. They have never been like that before. Usually they always call right away and let you know what is up. Of course now I have to wait for the results to come back tomorrow from the blood and urine tests. They gave me some antibiotics to give her twice a day regardless, and they gave her fluids. I think they had to do that to make her pee. Apparently she can't pee in public.
Poor old kitty....

Darwin Rocks

There have been some things going around on the internet about Kirk Cameron and his views on Darwin. If you are sitting there thinking "Who the hell is Kirk Cameron?" join the club. Not many people remember who he is. He played Mike Sever on Growing Pains. He turned all born again Christian during the filming of his show. There was some controversy about one of the actors on the show having posed for Playboy and being his show girlfriend. She was replaced by his soon to be wife of 20 years. After the show he started making only Christian based projects. That is why most people don't even know who he is any more. His group is going to hand out 50,000 altered books on Darwin's Theory of Evolution to college kids. They are changing the books to show that God created the world. They are upset because they believe that kids go to college and because almost all science professors do not believe in God and do not teach Creationism, that these graduates are coming out into the world non-believers...and Kirk can't have any of that! I really like what this one person said regarding this.


**Hobbes1:Creationists are intellectually dishonest, driven to self-delusion by deep insecurity. They refuse to lend serious, OBJECTIVE study to evolution, yet still attempt to argue against it with BELIEFS most of us were taught as children.If creationists want to disprove evolution, they can go around the world digging into Paleozoic strata, trying to find one indisputably human fossil. Find one, and it would blow the lid off evolution. To date, no such fossil has ever been found.Definition of faith: Belief in the truth of a proposition where there is no evidence to the contrary.Definition of blind faith: Belief in the truth of a proposition even in the face of evidence to the contrary.The difference between a scientist and a "creation scientist":A scientist sees something in nature that isn't well understood. The scientist applies the scientific method (observation, formulating an hypothesis, making predictions, test the predictions, publish the results so other scientists can test).If at any point objective evidence disproves her hypothesis, the scientist throws out the hypothesis in favor of one that better fits the evidence.A creation scientist begins with a conclusion, i.e., the Biblical creation story is true. He searches in nature to find evidence that his conclusion is true. When he finds evidence that tends to disprove his conclusion, he throws out the evidence and keeps the conclusion. At no time will the conclusion be questioned.The creationists call this, "science."And the cow jumped over the moon!**

I have a lot of friends who are religious. They go to church every Sunday. They all know that I do not have a problem with religion. My problem is with narrow minded people who believe only what they were spoon fed as a child. There is a whole big world out there, and most of it does not believe in the Christian God.
So why is it that some believe that only their God is the right one? That is what bothers me.

Cammy is Sickie-Poo

I'm worried about Cammy. She has blood in her urine this morning. I called the vet and the girl said she would talk to the vet and call me back. When she called back she said the he told her we could bring her in today and board her and they would monitor her until Monday, or I could just bring her in on Monday or Tuesday. I told her I work Monday and asked if Tuesday would be kinda late. She said that Cammy should be fine until Tuesday since she is eating and drinking. She does not seem to have a fever either. So I am going to take her in on Tuesday morning. I will, of course, be all freaked out all weekend thinking that this may be her last few days with us. Since she is 19-1/2 who knows how much longer she has, or if something as minor as a bladder infection could be too much for her little body to handle.
So I brushed her this morning and gave her loves and will give her all kinds of attention this weekend.
I'm sure that I am worried for nothing and she will have at least another year with us.
