Well, shoot...

I had an entry written for today, I swear. However, when I pulled up the edit screen for it, nothing was there. I thought a little pre-prep would be a good thing - Totsi the Dog had her teeth cleaned yesterday, and is still grumpling and snoozing a bit from the anesthesia wearing off, so I was going to put a major dent in clearing out the storage room while she slept. (This is actually more about getting myself to leave her alone - - I tend to over-check on her.)

But, like I said, there was no entry. So I decided to do a brief intro with a repost of something from a couple of years ago, an account of taking Totsi to the vet to have her teeth cleaned and what happened after we got home - - but I can't find any of my pre-Didgeridoo Boy entries. So that got scrapped. And then it occurred do me that I could tell you in one sentence what happened that day: She came home, drank a substantial amount of water, trotted out into the back yard to relieve herself, got stung by a yellow jacket, had an allergic reaction that made her face start to swell, and got rushed back out to the vet in five o'clock traffic for a steroid injection.

In a weird way, today is like that.
