she blinded me with science!
Jan. 30th, 2018 09:35 amWhat the heck, it has been over 10 days since I rambled about something on here? That's crazy LOL. Though I have been goofing off and playing a lot of Zelda. Last weekend I was supposed to meet up with my friend for a girl's weekend but she caught The Bug that has been going around so instead I just took the time off to chillax at home, watch all the movies that came in for me from the library and generally not stress about anything.
The week before I took my dufus cat to have some major dental surgery. He seems to have recovered but it will take my wallet 6 months to get over it. Both him and his sister suffer from Tooth Resorption, a weird cat tooth thing that no one really understands but they pretty much have to go in and get rid of what is left of the teeth once it happens because it is so painful. But since I am a horrible cat-mom and never took them to the vet on a regular basis until now, things were pretty bad in there. And Apollo lost a lot more front teeth than Starbuck did so it was a little more intensive and a little more money. But he was pretty much fine as soon as the drugs wore off and he could stand up. He immediately began crying for food (since he had to fast the whole day before) so I knew he was going to be okay. I take him in again on Friday for a final check up. I now also have a small pile of cat teeth because the dentist offered them to me and I was so amused I took them. I guess I could use them for a library program LOL. SCIENCE!
Speaking of, we had our "Slime Time" program at the library yesterday since the kids had an early dismissal from school which always means we have parents desperate for entertainment. We had to cap the program at 25 kids because I wanted controlled chaos. Because I always want to make the library events more than what they might do at home, I spent the first 20 minutes talking about the science behind slime, asking the kids about the states of matter and things like that. I told them they were not just kids goofing off with slime, they were chemists experimenting with non-Newtonian fluids! They thought that was great. It all went really well, though I had one girl get a little over zealous with the red food coloring and her side of the table looked like a scene from 'Hannibal'. Luckily, I was able to get it all cleaned up with a few paper towels and the cleaner spray.
I'm all caught up on everyone's entries - I didn't read my flist while I was off last week and I got WAY behind and you all filled up my inbox haha. I think I might need to bump up my Dreamwidth to a paid account so I can get more emails, they apparently limit it for the free account.
