hello! yoshi

I’m going to talk about something that I normally never talk about and usually try to avoid. I’m sure that Tiggerprr will write this one down in her books. But Muse wrote a post the other day about their sick kittehs, and that got me to thinking about very own Precious.

So here’s the scenario, we have to bring Precious to her annual exam. They find out that she’s got some teeth to pull out because they’re just in seriously bad shape. Meesh sounded so very bad and like a horrible mom when she called me they had to do that. Of course, we all know that she’s not. They ended up pulling 3 teeth, the two back on the bottom and one on top. Wow, I don’t know about you, but when I got my wisdom teeth pulled out, it sucked, and this is definitely comparable.

The vet sent her home with some antibiotics and pain meds. Both are orally injected fluid, so it’s supposed to be “easy”. Well, the two of us are trying to give Precious her meds (twice per day) and well, if you can find her, that makes it a lot easier. Precious is now wary of us at all, and is just about ready to dart off. I’ll be happy when we’re done and the only reason we’re calling after Precious is to hug her or hold her, and not to give her medicine.

Poor Meesh, she’s totally stressed out about it, and I’m stressed out about it because she’s stressed out about it.

I thought I’d write here! Actually, I keep thinking of good things to write about but never actually write. It’s not writer’s block, I’m just a lazy ass. :(

I should get my blogging license taken away. But then what would the 5 people who read my blog do with the 3 seconds it takes to stop by and realize I haven’t said anything for days or weeks or months…?

I think I just have a case of the blogging blahs…

You’ve heard of Dyslexia, where you mix up words. But did you know about Dyscalculia, where you mess up numbers and math? According to a study in Auckland University, 6 percent of the population suffer from it. So if you’re bad at math, there may be a perfectly logical and explainable reason for it besides being “bad at math”.

This may be a relief to people like Tiggerprr who suffers from being bad at math. She hates numbers so much. She can’t even play Sudoku. That’s horrible! I love me a good game of Sudoku once in a while. But she hates it because it has to do with numbers. She has no issue counting, she just can’t handle numbers. I think she definitely has Dyscalculia. seriously.

Do you suffer from Dyscalculia?
