Awww! You're too sweet!
I needed to spend some money to make myself feel better because I had such a crummy evening at work thanks to a passive-aggressive witch working this evening. For the past 2 months she has purposefully been working to make not only my job more difficult but also my work environment.
I tried to talk to her this evening to tell her that she needs to show some professionalism and start treating me with the same professionalism and courtesy that she affords every other staff member there. She got all aggressive and confrontational on me and caused a scene.
I ended up writing up a 2 page letter and left it for my manager. In the letter I told her that if this person's abusive behaviour towards me continues, I am going to report it to Employee Relations and my Union.
I'm so upset that I can't sleep and I had a cry :( Ever since I went off work on disability, I haven't been able to handle confrontation. It totally upsets me and stresses me out to no end :(
Anyway, to get back on the topic of kitties.
I took my youngest, Abby, to the vet a couple weeks ago to get a chickpea sized lump on her head looked at. I was almost 100% certain that it was just an unsightly cyst, but I'm not a doctor or a vet, so I wanted a second opinion. Turns out it was just a benign epidurmal cyst, which is what I thought it was. Total cost for them to just look at her head and feel the lump? $172.00!!! I didn't have them remove it. It's just cosmetic. When she goes in for her dental in a couple months I'll have them remove it then while she's already under anaesthetic.
My oldest kitty, Chynna, is going to be 18 years old this month!!! She adopted me on May 6th and she was about a year old, or so I figured. It's possible that she might have been a bit younger but it's hard to tell once they have their adult teeth.
"It is good to see ourselves as
others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we
are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not
angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to
say." - Ghandi
