Banana check
Miss Bunny is just not acting right. I can think of several kajillion things it could be, but she's seeing Alvin's rabbit-vet-in-training Dr. Stephanie tomorrow so we'll find out for sure. Burroughs coughed up an amazing fur ball and had diarrhea yesterday so he went to see Dr. Lisa today. So today has been like:
-- Get up frantic at 5 am. Check on Miss Bunny. Miss Bunny is still alive! And so is Burr! Thank the God du jour!!
-- Get up for real at 7. Miss Bunny is still alive!! And Burr is hungry!! Another big round of gratitude for the Big Guy Upstairs (and I don't mean Bruce!)
-- Stare at Miss Bunny. Is her mouth swollen? Is it crooked? Is she looking perky? She's begging! Hooray! She wants banana!!
-- Stare at Burroughs. Is he perky? Clip his nails so Dr. Lisa doesn't get maimed. Assess whether his lack of struggle is due to illness or that fact that he's a wuss. Assessment: He's a wuss.
-- Eat breakfast.
-- Do a banana check. Miss Bunny is begging for banana, so she must be still alive.
-- Drink a second cup of coffee.
-- Go to the foster bunny's room and clean every inch. From the view point of fung shui this room is in our money corner. I think it's good that we have rabbits (symbols of fertility and abundance) but not so good that we have overflowing boxes of their poop. Not to mention that Napkin has decided that she can effectively show Babs and Snookums her distaste for them by peeing next to their pen. Lots of vinegar and water will hopefully bring more money into our lives.
-- Is Miss Bunny perky? Do another banana check.
-- Time for Burr to see Dr. Lisa. Dr. Lisa loves Burr! Burr loves Dr. Lisa!! All is well with Burroughs and his intestinal system.
-- Come home. Do another banana check. Watch Miss Bunny drink too much water.
-- Clean like crazy. Curse that dang sponge mop which keeps disintegrating.
-- Do another banana check.
-- Repaeat steps 10 and 11 ad nauseum.....
