He's Ok

I finally got back to sleep this morning about 6 and then got back up at 7.30 and wes helped me get shaggy in the car and I drove him to the vet. With the windows down because he STUNK... no He STANK.

He was happy he was getting to ride in the fire crotch and seemed like his old self just with a huge gash. He knew where we were and didn't want to get out of the car. I got him inside and the vet said that it was a BAD cut that looked to be about 24 hours old. Which fit the time frame of how long he was gone. He said that smell was not him being dirty it was the smell of rotting tissue. Gross take that with your morning cherrios. I couldn't believe that it got infected that quick. I mean we called the vet as soon as we found him. He also said what I said that it looks like he got caught in a fence or something. Vet said that he needed to keep him overnight so that first thing on Monday they could put him under and cut out all the dead tissue and infection and that it probably wouldn't be able to be stitched up. So we will have to keep him inside for a long time until it heals. . This presents the problem of what to do with him. I think we are going to let him stay out in the stepson's room.

I was going to take a pic of it but it was too gross. I could barely stand to look at it. I hated to ask but I wanted a rough estimate of how poor I was going to be after all this. Not that it mattered because either way I can't just leave him like that. He said about 150 and if they can put drains in and stitch it up which is unlikely then about 300. I think I threw up in my mouth a little. Looks like I will be making payments.

He is going to call me about lunch and let me know how he is doing and if he can go home tomorrow. He seems to think that he will be able to.

Aidan stayed with my mom some today so I could sleep. Good thing too cause it's 11 and this kid is not going to bed any time soon.

The Case of the MIssing Dog

Shaggy has been missing all day. We called and called him and he never came. Very unlike him.

So at 4 am I wake up to go pee pee and my damn smoking habit dictates that if I wake up randomly I have to go smoke. Sometimes I can fight it but most of the time I give in like tonight. But tonight it turned out to be a good thing.

I called shaggy to see if he would show up this time and sure enough he come slowly walking up the steps. Very unlike him too. He usually is hopping and jumping wanting you to throw his ball. But not this time so I pet him on the head to let him to know I was glad he was back and he yelped out in pain. I stepped inside to turn on the light to see if he maybe got his ear chewed on by another dog and all I see is dried blood down his side and then I see the MOTHER OF ALL CUTS about 3 inches behind his collar. At that point I ran inside to get wes up. When wes came out he said to call the vet. So at 4 am I call the vets office to get the emergency number and find out that the vet is the one that sees the cats so I know he's a good vet. He tells me since he is alert and awake to do some basic first aid sinces the blood is dried and bring him in at 8. I appologized profusely for waking him at 4 am and he said oh don't worry I was about to get up anyway. You did the right thing. I thought what a liar but at least he was nice.

At that point wes gets all sickly and says he's about to puke and is sweating and all that so I have to stop and get him crackers and check his blood sugar. I finally get him situated and find all the cats and lock them in upstairs bathroom so they won't attack him when I bring him in.

Then I go back outside and actually get a good look at the cut. It's a clean cut not like a dog bite. It looks like he might have gotten caught in a fence. It goes from one shoulder to the other and is about 3 inches deep. Keep in mind that he is a really small dog. I got him to eat and managed to luer him in with a hotdog. After a bunch of bribery and 3 hotdogs I managed to get him into the small bathroom and as soon as wes recovered to help me we got his food and water and the cut full of neosporen. I wanted wes in case he tried to bite me. He would never bite anyone but when a dog is hurt that is the only way they know how to get you to stop messing with it. But he didn't.

Aidan managed to sleep through the whole thing. thank god.

And he stinks. BAD. BAD. Like something dead. I don't know what he has been in but damn. I turned the fart fan on in the bathroom so I won't barf when I go to get him out. Wes is going to stay with Aidan and I am going to take him to the vet. I have no idea how much this is going to cost but I can't just leave him like that. Power bill may have to wait. The vet said he may can stitch it up.

It's 5 am and I should be sleeping but now I am awake. My 4 am was eventful. How was yours?

Yummy!

Last night I made some awesome chicken and I thought I would share...

3 Chicken breasts cut into strips
Red pepper flakes
parsley
garlic
olive oil

Cook the chicken a skillet on very low heat with a little olive oil until done and slightly brown

In a sauce pan add about 3TBS olive oil, parsley, garlic, and red pepper flakes. I didn't measure. I just added and tasted until the garlic was just right and the pepper wasn't too hot. Simmer until you can smell all the flavors and pour over chicken.

You know what's awesome

When your baby boy who is looking more and more like a little mini kid crawls up in bed with you with a book and his pink pillow and lays his head on your chest so you can read books.

Yeah that's awesome. I love it.

BILLY MAYS HERE & and other stuff

Man I am going to miss... BILLY MAYS HERE!

That is crazy. So this week if you are hugh heffner or william shapner you are getting a little worried now for real.

In other news...

I uploaded some new pics of Aidan if you are in the mood for some baby cuteness.

I get to be off on Friday which is great. Me and the kid are going to the thrift store again to rack up and he is getting another hair cut. He is going to be a once a monther. His hair grows so fast.

Saturday we went over to my pawpaws to tear down an old falling down barn. There was stuff in that thing that was there when they moved into that house in 1977. Me and my bro were never allowed to play in it because my granny always said it was going to fall. We found out that it would probably have stood another 10 years. Basically after pulling down the support posts and it still not falling the tractor just ran over it. I have never been so hot before. The humitity was at a miserable 110% in the blazing sun. After several hours of being out in it, I felt like I was going to pass out so I left. This bitch sits behind a desk all day and is not cut out for real work.

Also this weekend we called the bosses resturant and asked his son if they sold wieners. It's funny. It embarrases him.

Next time I am going to ask him if I can get nuts on my wiener.

What tha?

It's crazy. Celebrity deaths. Ed Mcmahon didn't affect me much. I remember watching star search. But he was old and it didn't really surprise me. Then Farrah. She was sick for a long time. That one didn't surprise me much. But then MJ...

Holy shit! That is fucking crazy. I can't believe it. It's one of those things where you will remember where u were if you are my age. I told someone he is the elvis of our time. I mean he was weird and fucked up but his music made history. He was the "king of pop". I thought for sure Liz taylor would go before him.

I feel like I should moon walk and grab my crotch just because. Even though I haven't done that in years they were playing Thriller and it made me want to. His music is all over the tv again just like back in the day.

I will have to pile Aidan up in front of the tv and let him watch Thriller so he will at least hear it. I guess ringo will end up with the beetles rights now huh.

It makes me feel weird. I don't know why but it does. Crazy.

My Life Is an after school special

Today I learned an important lesson. That lesson is if you don't pay your phone bill... they will cut that shit off. The bad thing is I have had the check written for about a week but kept forgetting to actually drop it off. Yeah that's how I roll. They did wave the reconnect fee for me.

Some Stuff I am thinking about

I need to have a yard sale. I have so much junk. It's good junk though. Stuff I don't want to just throw out. But the idea of having to deal with it all makes me want to just say fuck it.

The kids mom bought them a video game where you pick up hookers and then they fuck. Yeah no. I gave that one to her today and told her it doesn't come back here. What the hell is wrong with her?

I want a wii. I think I may be able to work it out here next month. Maybe. I hope. If not then I am pimping wes out so I can get me one. Wes and the stepson say they don't want it.... so it's all MINE!! I will be getting my wii on all by myself.

I went to the evil walmart to buy diapers and found that they made the box smaller but not the price. I am paying the same price for 10 less diapers. Fuckers.

I made wes' bday cake yesterday. I still have to take a pic of it. It has a car on it jacked up with tools and a tool box on it. He loved it. I even put a mini beer bottle and cigarette on the tool box just the way he keeps it at home. It has wheels and rims and car parts all over it. His birthday is tomorrow.

Next weekend my uncles are coming down to help tear down the falling down ass shed at my paw paws. I guess I will go over and sweat a while and come home. Mom wants me to make a cake for everyone. She told them if they come help then she would have lunch for everyone. I think my dad is bbqing. It has been so hot it's not even funny. The humity is a bitch.

I actually got a good nap in today. Aidan took a 3 hour nap so I took one too. And I still managed to do like 5 loads of laundry and fold them. Yeah I rock. The rest of the house looks like shit but hey I got a nap.

Wes worked out in the yard today and got "a little sun" when I looked at his back he looks like a lobster. I was like shit that isn't a little sun! It is going to hurt like a mo fo tomorrow.

2 people I went to school with are "dating" now so I found out on facebook. IT's like a weirdo convention. I'm a little freaked out. Ok ok a lot.

I think when I get paid I am going to take a trip to the thrift store again and see if I can find aidan some more clothes. He is about to move up to the next size. The clothes there are like brand new. I bought me a tshirt for 99 cents and it looks new. I love that store. The only thing is that wes doesn't work right down the street anymore so if I find something big I want I have to find a way to get it home. His friend works close so maybe he can come get stuff. The stepson wants me to take him to look for some clothes since he saw what I bought aidan and how good of shape it's in. I liek that store cause there isn't pee pee couches and stuff in it. IT's nice and neat and clean and organized and the money goes to one of my favorite places... Jimmy hale mission. They do some good work in Bham.

My back meds are kicking in and I am getting more random than usual. Going to bed. Later beeches.

PS follow me on twitter. You'll be glad you did.

My Boy Genius

Aidan is so funny. Tonight wes took a plastic cup and squeezed it and stuck it to Aidan's belly. He thought it was so funny. He was running all over the house with a plastic cup stuck on his belly. Wes took video but I have to find my cable so I can hook it to the computer. I don't know where it is. Tomorrow hopefully I will find it. IT's a great video.

He was also bringing me is hat to put on him so he could pull it off and bring it to me to put back on.

Stay tuned for the video this weekend..

Just Another Reason This Bitch Hates Living in the Country
