First off, this came to me from my mom, and was amusing:

Senior Citizen Comeback
An older lady gets pulled over for speeding...

Older Woman: Is there a problem, Officer?
Officer: Ma'am, you were speeding.
Older Woman: Oh, I see.
Officer: Can I see your license please?
Older Woman: I'd give it to you but I don't have one.
Officer: Don't have one?
Older Woman: Lost it, 4 years ago for drunk driving.
Officer: I see...Can I see your vehicle registration papers
Older Woman: I can't do that.
Officer: Why not?
Older Woman: I stole this car.
Officer: Stole it?
Older Woman: Yes, and I killed and hacked up the owner.
Officer: You what?
Older Woman: His body parts are in plastic bags in the trunk if you want to see.
The Officer looks at the woman and slowly backs away to his car and calls for back up. Within five minutes police cars circle the car. A senior officer slowly approaches the car, clasping his half-drawn gun.
Officer 2: Ma'am, could you step out of your vehicle please!
The woman steps out of her vehicle.
Older woman: Is there a problem sir?
Officer 2: One of my officers told me that you have stolen this car and murdered the owner.
Older Woman: Murdered the owner?
Officer 2: Yes, could you please open the trunk of your car, please.
The woman opens the trunk, revealing nothing but an empty trunk.
Officer 2: Is this your car, ma'am?
Older Woman: Yes, here are the registration papers.
The officer is quite stunned.
Officer 2: One of my officers claims that you do not have a driving license.
The woman digs into her handbag and pulls out a clutch purse and hands it to the officer.
The officer examines the license. He looks quite puzzled.
Officer 2: Thank you ma'am, one of my officers told me you didn't have a license, that you stole this car, and that you murdered and hacked up the owner.
Older Woman: Bet the liar told you I was speeding, too.

As for me.... well, today's proving to be a difficult day. I managed, in the confusion of the thanksgiving-with-the-in-laws mayhem, to snarf up my pain med schedule; today I'm paying the price for it, and trying to get myself on track again. Apologies to those who encountered me last night and found me blue. At least the pain meds function faster than the antidepressants. :p

But in the meantime, I'm pretty damn fried. There'll be a more in-depth entry later today; for now, I need to crawl back into bed.

G'nite.

All the gory details...

Kweepie's got a spinal infection. Apparently it's something guinea pigs are very vulnerable to, though it's the first time I've encountered it. By the time I managed to get the poor fuzzy to the vet on Friday, he'd lost most of the use of his back legs and was unable to potty normally. The vet handled him (much rougher and more casually than I do, but he's one of the east coast's best 'exotic' vets), and then cleaned him out and gave him a couple shots of antibiotics. The entire time, Kweepie only protested once. For the next several days, he gets a quarter tablet of Baytril dissolved in orange juice shot down his throat with an oversized syringe... and he doesn't fight me at all. There's been a noticeable improvement in him, thankfully. He's moving around again, albeit slowly, and his appetite is back to normal. I was terrified I was going to lose him...

Thanksgiving with the in-laws went better than I had any right to expect, and at times was actually genuinely pleasant. And the turkey dinner was positively delightful. :) I spent a good bit of time curled up out on the porch with the In Nomine books jhyanmar sent me, managing to wade through the rest of the core book, the Angelic Players Guide, and Superiors 3. The Ethereal Players Guide managed to stump me, though; I wasn't able to wrap my brain around it. It's on the agenda for another attempt tonight, so maybe it'll sink in. :p I really like the system; I want to nail it all down so I can introduce it to the gaming group I'm part of. Further books in the set are at the convenience of He Who Hooked Me, though... I'm already looking at a serious shortfall for the bills after having to field the bill from the veterinarian. *sigh* Someday, maybe it won't be a struggle. Things would've been fine without it... I simply had no way of predicting the need for it. :/

My pain levels are finally starting to drop back into the point that is (nowadays) normal for me; in the chaos of getting us back home and getting the piggies taken care of, I managed to snarf up the schedule of my pain meds. I might've mentioned that earlier. Sorry if it's repeated, but I'm a bit scrambled right now. Dinner's finishing thawing, and then I'll fire up the stove to get the chicken cooking and get the rice going. With today's grocery run, we've got about 12 days worth of healthy meals laid in.

That's about all that's really on my mind at the moment. But there's a really nifty clothing site that I discovered, courtesy of a post by raelbny: Miss by elaine. Lots of very pretty things there. :) Thank you, Rael, for that tidbit; it brightened an otherwise bleary morning. :)

And that's it for me.
*hugs*

How sexually compatible with me are you?
Take the NEW sexual compatibility quiz at LJMatch!

I find this humorous... several of the folks on the list are folks I -know- very well... and they should all be higher. So something's a bit wonky... and the test itself never gives a 'depends on the partner' answer, which'd peg me MUCH higher with certain folks. o.0
