Happy Father's Day, I love you daddy!!!!

I called my dad this morning, it was the first time in about four phone calls to my parents house that he's actually been home.  It was good to catch up with him! He sounds good and everything is going well. He got the flowers and card I sent, so that's good!!!! I think he said he had an iris (or orchid) club meeting later today. I'm glad he's doing things he loves!

Gotham seemed really sick yesterday afternoon. He was sitting in the corner, staring at me but not reacting to anything I said. I scooped him up and he just sort of went limp and felt warm. I laid him on the bed, directed a fan at him and put a bag of ice on him ( you know he must have been sick if he let me do that!). I tried to get him to drink water, but he wouldn't. I held him for a while and stayed up checking on him. His breathing was okay, so I didn't take him to the emergency room.

He must be okay now because he woke up early and bit me on the ear. Good kitty!!!

I'm thankful that both my dad and kitty are doing well and are happy!

Post birthday, er post! I had a great time on my birthday. I am truly lucky to have friends to celebrate with. We went to dinner at The Addiction Bistro before the show. I HIGHLY recommend their desserts! We shared a fresh brownie with Eskimo Pie ice cream. I. Have. No. Words. It was incredible!

Here is a photo of us post-food! The bottles are fancy foreign diet cola. That sucked.




The Thrilling Adventure Hour was amazing and I'm glad I was finally able to go after the last few years of meaning to make it over.  We got performances of Sparks Nevada AND Beyond Belief.  Saw Len Wein in between performances. Stayed at a distance though. I almost wish I would have gone over to say hello. It was my birthday after all!

So, turning 43, all in all, wasn't so bad.

Went to my skin doctor Friday. I'm down to once every few months now, which is good. He took a few biopsies, but I'm not worried. They haven't come back positive in two years, so why would they now? The only crappy thing is that one of them was taken from my ear. I got almost no sleep last night! It KILLED! Every time I turned over, BAM!  Pain shot up my head.  I finally took the band aid off this afternoon and was horrified to see a chunk gone!!!!! No wonder it's been painful! I guess I will have to keep my hair long for a while. :-( I've been really tempted to get it all cut off to my old pixie cut and that's now out if the question. Bummer!!!!

Well, that's about it for now. Let me know if you have any haircut suggestions! They must cover my ears!
