Catfish is in Surgery

Catfish is out of surgery and doing fine. His doctor said he is up and moving about.  – update from Annie

This is my favorite picture of Catfish so I used it!

We dropped him off this morning and expect to here post surgery news by 3PM.  Around 5 our roommate will come home to take me to pick up Mr. Catfish and we shall go from there.

Thank all of you who have left your well wishes.

And yes, I bought two new toys, cleaned the kennel up, and will be putting his favorite pink blanket in it before he gets home.

Annie is confused and very clingy as she has never been away from Catfish save the time she was spayed. We are both kind of pouting and waiting.

Will post more when I know more.

I was putting this together yesterday before I noticed Catfish’s lump.

Tickle me pink? Yipee! Nuff Said. Catfish will be excited when he sees how big the Pink Panther is when he gets home!

I think it might even bake cookies – not sure as the manual is thick and my brain slow but . …

I am going to go watch 2012 on Blu ray disc Now! All the other bells and whistles can wait.

My Best Friend Catfish

My most loyal follower, my best friend, the dude who is always there by my side each and everyday is going in for surgery tomorrow morning. I found a lump on his front leg – the elbow area that was not large enough to notice when I combed him out a few days ago.  Just three weeks ago he passed his yearly check up with flying colors.

The vet thinks statistically by feel and location that it most likely is some form of cancer and not one of the fatty deals that dogs do get as they get older. There is hope that it is a strange feeling fatty thing but . …

We left our usual vet office this evening and hunted down where Catfish’s favorite doctor was now. He and some of his fellow docs started a new practice few years back  but we were not sure where. The doc that was going to do the surgery was – well Catfish did not like him and quite honestly the place the last few visits was not as pleasant as before . So a few phone calls and we located the Docs new digs and wow the place was awesome. The receptionist was nice and instead of hiding under my chair Catfish ran to greet his old doc. This guy always did and still does listen and take the time to explain everything and that was that.

So my little champ Catfish, KRP,  and I will head out early tomorrow and then I will wait to hear how the surgery goes and then we wait for the biopsy results to know for sure. The most common type while having any type is not a good thing – well the most common type usually does not spread and may or may not return.

Hoping for the best.

Sum of It

Jumping into using the much debated IQ testing scores proverbial measuring stick I wonder  if I have moved to the short end.  Most days someone somewhere seems to judge me as belonging to the lower quotient crowd. Sometimes I am to far into my cog fog to notice and other times I catch their verbal slights and innuendos.  And then I get mad? Frustrated? I duuno.

The opposite of this seems to be for me when someone points out that I should not be having a problem with a task because – yeah gee your smart enough to figure that one out.  Or you tests show you are upper scale so you can not be having this problem. Gosh I can not win.

Say augh. If left alone and undisturbed I can still figure out the surface area of sphere SA= 4?(r^2) I think that is it – anyways – but if I do not lay out the ingredients for a recipe in order I will surly forget the eggs LOL. WTF
I get to where I want to scream at some folks that it is in my brain really, somewhere, I am not stupid!!

So is it easier to start out with a lower (using the evil IQ testing) intelligence level or a higher one? The more you start out with helps find more/better mechanisms to cope? Maybe leading to others perceptions of functioning abilities expectations to be to high?
