Lily is now up to 7.3 lb, officially. She shouldn't go much over 8, but I'm not sure she would anyway. So hooray, at least until the blood test comes back tomorrow morning. The only problem is that now that she's not so skinny, it's harder to find veins to stick needles in, and she wasn't happy about it at all. Hopefully I'll be forgiven by the time I get home tonight, because I stripped the meat off a rotisserie chicken wing for her before I left.

I wish I had gotten to sleep before midnight last night, because this morning was a mess. I hadn't gotten any of the usual round of reminders from the vet's office, so I got up with the alarm clock this morning just in case I was wrong about the appointment. I called at 7:45 and heard back at 7:55 that yes, the appointment was on for today. What I really wanted to do was sleep in and then eventually get up and clean things and wait for the vet, but if the appointment hadn't happened, I would have gone to work as usual. Which I couldn't have done if I hadn't gotten up early.

Tomorrow, new passport pictures, if not actually filling out and sending in the forms. Thank goodness passport pictures aren't supposed to be good, because I'm about as photogenic as cold oatmeal lately.
