Otis is home!
Apr. 20th, 2011 07:53 amOtis is also wearing the Cone Of Shame and prancing around like he doesn't know how to walk with shaved front legs and leaking gross stuff out of the tube that's still in his leg, but he's home!
The cute thing is that he wouldn't leave my side last night. The not-so-cute thing is that it's awfully uncomfortable to sleep with a cat who wants to wriggle under the covers and sleep in your arms while wearing the Cone of Shame and leaking gross stuff out of a tube in his leg.
I'm going to have to wash my bedding again when I come home tonight. That's four times in a week. Ew.
In other news, I heard back from my algebra teacher and got confirmation that I don't have to take the final. I ended up with a 97.75% average for the semester, which ... yay! Also, my speech teacher emailed me with my grade and critique for the depression presentation:
Hi Jen!!

I definitely need to have her give me a little wave next time when I'm getting close to the time limit, which I totally forgot to do this time around. And I think I figured out what I'm going to do -- I'm going to try and persuade the class that a tarantula makes a good pet. I mean, really, it's cheap, it's low-maintenance, it's not as scary as everybody thinks, and it's morbidly amusing to watch it eat. And as a visual aid, I can record it eating a cricket.
