We need another fancy cat bed. I knew that was going to happen, and it's not that they fight over the existing one, but it makes me sad to see Lily sitting on the rug with all her feet tucked in, watching Snip lounge in the cat bed. I can fix that, so I'm going to fix that.

In order to run off and be underwater in early January, I have to do all the stuff for the oral health session at HMS in early January now. So I ordered all the supplies (for 200 students) and I'm collecting assistants' names to send to HMS and writing a guide for the hands-on sessions and and and...but I'll be able to sleep at night when the winter break starts. Since "oral health day" is now "oral health two hours unless we can make it an hour and a half", it shouldn't be as complicated as it seems to be. But somehow it always is. I suppose anything that involves 200 toothbrushes is complicated just because it involves 200 toothbrushes.

We've been given the whole day of Christmas Eve off, which is nice because it was going to be a half day. But since the 23rd is a Monday, it will be a one-day work week, which is silly. I bet there won't be many people here that day. Maybe it will be a good quiet day and I can finish doing all the stuff I'm supposed to do in order to run off to Bonaire.

Insert rant here about mammograms. I scheduled one for after I get back from Bonaire and am trying not to hate every single thing about it, including the lecture I got for not having one every other year. At least I can forget about it for a little while.

I did answer the question about what I mean when I say "I want to go home" without thinking about it. It means I want to stop being responsible for anything for a while, including the Hairy Beasts. I love my Hairy Beasts, but I have to think about food and water and litter and medical conditions and et cetera. And work and money and chores and errands and weather and weight and the hot water faucet in the shower and et cetera. It gets tiring.
