Slip ’n Slide

Another Monday on its way out... Yay! It's seriously the one day of the week I can do with out. However, I guess if Monday didn't exist there'd be another day that would assume the responsibilities of being that "first" day. Moving on...

I think I'll take this opportunity to point out the obvious.... It's friggin' cold. At least it's hitting above 0 during the day again. It snowed some today. Fortunately, not the mess they got south of us but I think there's about an inch at my house. It was this light fine snow that literally fell all day. The roads SUCKED! I guess they thought there was no need to take care of the roads since it took me roughly an hour and a half to get home. It was like the plows and salt trucks were just getting out. Anyhow, I thought there was a point when it was too cold to snow, today should have been one of those days. I seem to be having traction issues in the snow lately. Especially right turns! I swear; you better get out of my way if I'm turning right. Even if I'm crawling I slide. Left turns, not so much. I guess I may have to look at getting some new tires. Not that I have any money... Dang Vet bills blowing anything I may have had, including the money I got for Christmas to buy a snowboard. Not to mention, I needed gas so I figured I'd fill up tonight right by my house instead of this morning when it will be more frigid. I normally don't complain about gas prices, BUT when I left this morning it was $2.73 tonight when I stopped, $2.89. 16 cents!!!

So, there's nothing much on TV early Saturday mornings and I'm always awake. As I was channel surfing, I stumbled upon vh-1's Top 20 countdown. This week one of the "countdown contenders" was Snoop Dogg's Sensual Seduction. Oh my god.... I don't even know what to say. The small part I saw of it there just left me speechless. Snoop just sang Sensual Seduction over and over. It was more of a turn off than seduction. However, after watching the full video I have to say it rocks. I have to say, Snoop is probably one of the last people I want to seduce me but the video awesome. The 70's throwback is just superb! You can check it out here.

Otto's doing okay. I think he's getting better. In some aspects, in some aspects he's showing signs of improvement but then I'll notice something that concerns me. Tonight when I came home I got a little excited. He wasn't sitting with his left hind leg popped out any more. This morning I was inspecting the masses and only really found one, a big one, under that leg. He seems to be moving a little better but the leg is now popping out again. I wish he'd eat more - I may have to start calling him Skeletor. I'm hot packing the abscess more and I'm hoping that's helping it drain. Rufus (a.k.a. McFatty) and I had nice game of fetch. He really needs the workout. Now they're both curled up in their beds all innocent like.

As for me, I'm avoiding the doctor. I still quite haven't shaken the cough I've had since Christmas. Thankfully, it's not nearly as bad what it was a few weeks back. It's still stuck in my chest tho. The last time I was this tired, stressed and coughing I had pneumonia. I don't have the time to have pneumonia, so cross your fingers this cough disappears soon.

Wishing you all a wonderful week.

Cheers,
