Well, Val threw up this morning, before breakfast. I think I found him just afterwards. So I called the vet right away to let them know. the doctor prescribed an anti-vomiting medication. After breakfast and some article and comic reading, I took Uber down to the veterinarian to get the medicine. I turned in some old medicine he's been taken off of, and they refunded me over twice as much as the new stuff cost... but they only sold me 8 days' worth, and I don't think it's temporary. However, this will help, and it will let me see how it works on him before paying a lot at once.
I took Uber back and got a much chattier driver than I got on the way down. {Smile}
I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before that. I started with scripture and thoughts about it, and then read some more of her niece's long family Christmas letter from 2022. Next, I read the card I gave her for Easter again. After that, I read the next few pages of _1950's Fashion in Pictures_. Then I read the blurb and the first story from _100 Uplifting Short Stories for Seniors_. I finished up by reading the April 11th story from 366 Stories for Bedtime: A Tale for Every Day of the Year. Mom said she liked it, or hoped she did, and seemed particularly interested in the picture book. I think the hoping she did is because I tend to say i hoped she liked it, and it's easier to echo me than come up with new stuff to say. {Smile}
I did over twenty minutes of salsa dancing, including both warmup and less structured dancing. I was slightly late because the stuff was doing in City of Heroes was late, but not badly so. {Smile}
I read comics and articles on the net in the morning. Then I finished writing yesterday's daily update over lunch and shared it around. After that, I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming, where I found Kitten ready to team, and my RWBY friend busy with the early long, large group event. Kitten was more interested in doing moderately low-level story arcs, so we did one of those instead. My RWBY friend came free just as we were doing the last mission, so he joined us for the next story arc in the group. That ended barely earlier than I usually break to read to Mom, so we split up there. {Smile}
Around dinner, I worked a bit on this update. Then I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming and found Kitten busy on a team. So were Azurette and Soothing Darkness. I said hi to all three, and Azurette invited me to a giant monster fight that was half over already. I joined it, and Soothing Darkness invited me to a story arc. I finished the fight first, then went to join Soothing Darkness. Kitten got done with what they were doing and joined us just as we were getting ready to start. We sped through a story arc I've taken days to do... it was a challenge to get into each mission before they finished, but they made sure we did on the last couple, where the credit for getting particular enemies happens. I already had them on the character I was on... I kind of wish I'd realized before we started, so I could find a character who needed that, but maybe I'll remember to check next time. {Smile}
Nox said goodnight surprisingly early, but they had something they had to go to early tomorrow morning. After that story arc, Soothing Darkness, Kitten and I ran the next fairly low-level story arc. We were going to do another, but Soothing Darkness spotted a contact none of us remembered actually doing the content of. She didn't like the introduction enough to want credit for it but tagged along when I wanted to start it. My RWBY friend came on and joined us in the second mission or so. there were four or five mission in all, and we actually managed to do them all before I started my salsa dancing just slightly late. then I wrote this up, and I chatted with both Kitten and my RWBY friend around the dancing and the writing. {Smile}
