Mondays: Nature’s payback for weekends

The cat wouldn’t stop meowing and howling all night.  It’s been sick for over three or four days and is just starting to feel better.  All that sleeping during that time had oviously been stored up to stay awake all freaking night.  And then when it seems that he has quieted down an amazingly loud and bright lightning storm erupts right outside our windows sending out big dog (Chini) into hysterics and climbing over us to be protected.  She’s terrified of storms for some reason and the one this morning was a doozy.  She whimpered and pushed and shook for at least an hour or more keeping us both awake even more.

Over all I don’t think either of us got more than an hour of consecutive sleep last night.  I am so wiped out today I’m barely even functional at work.  Maybe some ice cream would help.

Most of the weekend was a lost cause due to taking the cats to the vet and going back and forth to pick them up or to ask questions.  In the off times, I did a little drawing in Illustrator and then got my troll Hunter in World of Warcraft to level 50.  Leveling is so much faster than it was a year ago.  There seems to be more money available too because I’ve never had so much in game before.

When I get home tonight, all I want to do is take the dog’s out for their evening walk and then take a nap.  Eating dinner is optional at this point.  I’ll work on Thursday’s comic tomorrow.  I’m to burnt to do it today.  Today’s up on time though.  As usual.

    You actually have money in WOW? I am shocked. Between us, I am the only one who ever used to have monies. hehe

    As for the exhaustion, yeah, I am right there with you. After last night I felt too agitated to get any sleep today.

    I saw our former neighbor today and she asked if I was okay because apparently I look like I haven’t slept for days…nice.

    I got no sleep last night either, but due to a sick kid instead of a sick cat. Today should be interesting.

    Dogs have that fear of loud sounds, well most pets because you know, they don’t know what they are, could be anything!

    LOL yeah having money in wow is nice. level 50, sweet. now make it to 58 so you can go into outland lol. We need to play some together, but now, playing is sporadic since we’ve got the parents here right now.

    Our dog used to be so terrified of storm he would go mentally handicapped during and for a few hours after it. He would sit on his bum facing a wall (sometimes a corner) and not move no matter what we did. He was the meanest dog I’ve ever seen (he was more of a guard dog and not what you’d call a pet dog) and seeing him lose it over storms or fireworks amused me for hours. Of course that’s because that dog hated me so I had no reason to like it back.

    I hope the cats are doing okay.
