Finally got around to trying it

Red Bull did not, in fact, give me wings. I found it to be overly sweet, with a cloying fake cherry/raspberry/citrus flavour and nothing else to deem it drink-worthy. Granted, my system is rather acclimated to caffeine, so I'm not surprised that there's no added...'oomph' from this beverage. All I get is a bleh aftertaste and a very mild twinge, like the beginnings of a ginkgo biloba inspired headache. (memory enhancer my pale squishy ass, that stuff makes my head hurt) Paired with another liquid, be it alcohol or perhaps ginger ale, this might be tolerable, but as a stand alone beverage, I'll pass.



dragons yet again:

Day 17 of the Mojo Saga

He started on his new meds today, and while they didn't smell all that great, he didn't seem to mind the taste. New stuff is thicker than the previous antibiotics and is harder to get out of the syringe.

The Vet never called me back about the infection in his nail, so I tried calling today around 1 but they work half days on Saturday, I guess, because they were closed. (Though it's great that they have any hours on the Weekend, we don't, but we have two late nights to compensate) So I left a message. That's twice they haven't called me. Granted, this time she'd (the doctor) said for me to call if I hadn't heard from her by the end of the week, but I'd called previously about Mojo's hair loss and they never responded. Now, I know from experience that it gets hectic in any variety of Doctor office, goodness knows we have days that make us wonder if the looney bin exploded and dumped all its residents on our doorstep, but even a quick 'hey, I haven't found out anythig yet but I'm still looking into it' type call would be appreciated. Ah well.

19 more days of this new antibiotic, then hopefully no more Bartonella and Mojo will be free to spend his days without being rolled up in a towel daily and having medicine forced upon him. He does seem to be doing well, though, he was even begging for his dinner, like the little booger he was before all this started. :) I was quite glad to hear that demanding meow at food time.


*hm I need a Mojo icon, if I'm going to be recounting all his veterinary adventures. For now, Prince will have to suffice* Edit: grumpy Mojo pic ahoy
