Been having too much fun to post since Wednesday, I guess. Here's a photo from one of mine and Cappy's adventures from earlier in the week -- taking Jackie the cat to the vet for her post-surgical checkup. She was as good as any of my cats (and better than some) with the exception of a huge stress pee on the weigh scale right after I took her out of her carrier. She hid behind the fan on the counter while we were waiting for the vet, but then let me cuddle her and hold her for all the pokey-proddy stuff.
She's been very sweet and loves to be petted. She purrs when petted in the cage, and rolls around and rubs her cheeks up against the bars, etc. She did have another big stress pee when I wrapped a towel around her and brought her into the living room to sit with us on the couch one evening, so there's still some socialization to do. The red couch of fabulousness missed the hit, luckily, and all the pee went down my shirt and leg and into my slipper.
Thursday was my first ever baseball game, with tickets from a lawyer my office uses for great seats to watch the Reds beat the Jays. Here was our vantage point:
Row 18 behind home plate.
And look, they opened the dome! Here it is, in progress.
I had a lot of fun. What cracked me up were the 10-year olds behind us who trash-talked every player on both teams like it was their paid job. But they also had encyclopedic baseball knowledge, just like I imagine Cappy did at that age. Cappy was still working the strategy around the sacrifice bunt when I heard the one kid behind us explaining it to his friend. Anyway, I had a blast and I'm all ready to do it again today as Cappy treats me to Phillies vs. Jays. He's in his Phillies cap (and yes, he does know how to wear it properly, M------l and cranky), and he's going to get me a retro Jays cap. Yes, there will be pictures.
I'm out of time to continue this post, since it's nearly time to leave for the game. Catch you later, after the Jays beat the Phillies yet again.
