Things are up and down at the moment. Tired this morning - I'd go as far as to say exhausted, but not had my caffiene intake yet so that might have something to do with it.
Dog's looking a bit more spritely again this morning. Slept in my room again and actually managed to go through to about 6.30 before waking me up. Previous night I was up about 3 times with her. Over the past few weeks we've been up an average of 5 or 6 between us.
She's still not eating though, although she's drinking milk and water now. Vets today hopefully. She's looking a bit more like she'll survive another night at least.
Pretty upset about it as you can imagine. We've had her... not sure if it's 11 or 12 years now. Never fun to lose a pet and even worse to see her in distress. But this morning she was up to her usual tricks. Legs stiff from sleeping all night and not working this morning, so she staggered around my room like a drunk, crashing into things. The fact some mornings she can hardly walk, she's been having fits, and she's stopped eating, none of it very positive.
Anyway...
Was fairly busy over the weekend, even despite the dog nursing. Saturday and Sunday both I had to work on this poster I designed for the local amateur theatre company which they wanted majorly altering. I didn't mind that, but it did take a while to do. Fiddly.
Aside from that, Saturday afternoon I spent helping my sister and her new boyfriend move a couple of couches into her new(ish) apartment. The 2 seater we got up the stairs without -too- many problems, though it was heavy as all buggery, but the 3 seater was the problem. Old apartments, stairs go up in 3 levels. First attempt we got the couch jammed half way up the stairs. tried again and jammed it trying to turn it on the stairs. We figured we needed to do some minor demolition and disemble a couple of shelves that were blocking our way in the lobby. That helped and we got the couch up to the second landing without any problems. Then got well and truly jammed trying to get it around the corner. Were there for a little while easing it bit by bit before we finally managed the last part. My arm's completely buggered though now.
After that, decided since I was over this way I might as well go grab a meal and a movie at the local mall/out-of-town development type place. Good meal, then went and saw League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Would have prefered Underworld but it had stopped showing apparently. Comments on the film below.
Today's my dad's birthday, so yesterday we went out for a meal in the evening. Lovely meal, good company. Enjoyed it a lot, nice to get a bit of family time. Bang goes the diet, but tough, if I don't put anything on this week I'll be content and if I do, oh well.
Caught up a bit on comics. I'll cut my comments to avoid spoilers, so be warned.
