First, thank you to everyone who expressed good wishes for my baby boy! I love you guys.

Papa Bear is home now and doing a ton better. The vet said he had the flu and that because he weighs so little, he had gotten massively dehydrated. They kept him for two whole days and gave him IV fluids and meds. I have been monitoring how much water he drinks since he got home. They said the confusion was from the dehydration, which is good, because I was convinced he'd had a stroke. Because of the steroids he is on for other things, his immune system is majorly depressed, so we can expect this to happen more as he gets older. But now I know what to look for, to start watching the minute I notice him having problems, how to check for dehydration and can get him right in for fluids the next time. Now that I know, I won't be so freaked out the next time either. I just have to keep like $200 in my account at all times, for cat health services. We are also going to invest in our own crate (the one we have now is my cousin's) so that when he does get sick, we can monitor him better and keep him away from the other cats.

I brought him home and we had a big cuddle. This morning I woke up with my feet sticking out from under the covers and Papa Bear grooming my toes. Though, after we got Papa Bear home, one of my sister's cat went and threw up. We watched him and he seems to be okay and it didn't happen again, so I don't know if he got the flu too or what.

In other news, tomorrow (probably today by the time I get this posted) is my mom's birthday. I know, it's a crappy date to have as a birthday. Anyways, my sister and I tried to get my mom to go to breakfast with us, but she has plans already. I am actually happy about this - she never goes out and does anything, so I am happy some old friends invited her over. My sister and I are taking her to dinner on Tuesday. It seems all my mom and I do lately is fight with each other, so I hope it won't be awful.

In Sum: My sister has a Logan-Sim and he wanted to be a firefighter, so she let him. Now her Sim Fire-Fighting Team consists of Logan the Wolverine, Zoe from Firefly, Jo from Supernatural and Gunn from Angel.

My response?

"I would light our house on fire just to make them come over and be hot-asses. Damn."

How was your weekend? So I was watching Friends again (while I ate my chocolate ice cream mixed with mint chocolate chip ice cream with chocolate sprinkles on top - delicious and totally worth the heartburn and sugar-induced shaking that followed). Anyways, right, Friends...GIOVANNI RIBISI WILL AMUSE ME FOREVER!

Frank Jr's description of his weekend - "We went to Times Square, got ninja stars, I got punched by a hooker..."
Phoebe: She wasn't a hooker.
Frank JR: She will be when I tell my friends.

LMAO. It was also the episode where he says, "I like things that melt, I don't like things that don't melt"...but I SWORE it was BURN - "I like things that burn, I don't like things that don't burn." Do you think it's possible that teenage!me put the word "burn" in there because I LIKE THINGS THAT BURN?! Hmmm...

Anyway, on Friday The BFF came down. For some reason when we sit around the living room and have the most ridiculous conversations about nonsense, it is the most fun ever. It is absolutely no different from when we do that on the phone - but when we are in the same room, it just seems better. IDK why. Then we all watched Glee clips, looked at everyone's Sims updates, watched "How To Train Your Dragon" - which we did just see, but this time The Nephew wasn't there to give a running commentary in my ear, lol. Plus The BFF had never seen it and she hearts Craig Ferguson, as one should. Then we talked about Craig Ferguson & Jeffrey Dean Morgan forever with hearts.

On Saturday, I literally laid around all afternoon and played my handheld and watched a House marathon while my sister put her new bookshelves together. Then one of my cousins came over and helped her finish up and then my sister bought us all Chinese food for dinner. Whenever we have dinner with this cousin, we inevitably end up talking about Bones and Criminal Minds. My cousin is such a giant Reid-fangirl, it is kind of adorable. Then I actually got to read a little fanfic.

On Sunday, The Guy Cousin brought his kids over - The Boy Cousin who is almost 11 and The Little Girl Cousin who is almost 7. In three hours we played Uno, Punch-Out on the original Nintendo, the crocodile game, I Spy, War, Simpsons Roadrage and did a puzzle. Those kids are exhausting. We hadn't seen them in forever though, so it was sweet. And I guess they have been sick for like two weeks. The Guy Cousin is laid of work right now and he said he had one or the other of them home with him every day for the last two weeks. He looked so relieved to have some adults to talk to. As per usual, we argued movies.

Then they left and my sister decided we needed massive amounts of sugar, so she went and got us the above mentioned ice cream, of which I ate half yesterday and the rest today. This place has every candy topping Jared has ever dreamed up and you can get your ice cream flavors all swirled together with anything on top, except like live crickets - sooooo good.

I was going to complain about some bullshit, but eh, I'm tired now.

Maybe tomorrow.

In sum - These pictures of Misha make me want to write Watcher!Castiel fic. It's the vest. Let's all think about Castiel and Giles drinking tea together, k? Great.
