Summer holiday's are just about over!
Aug. 30th, 2007 09:39 pmToday was Rowan's last day at Dragon Camp - at least for this year. It's cost me a small fortune, but he's enjoyed himself so I guess it was worth it. I'm certainly not going to miss trekking through the estate every morning; UWIC's Cyncoed Campus is on the opposite side of my district, and there are a lot of little hills around here, so it was exhausting. I'm just glad we managed to find a reasonably short route to take, cutting through a fence at the back of the campus to get to the athletics centre. Otherwise, the alternative route would have taken us an hour and was even more exhausting.
Would have been nice if they hadn't installed extra security half-way though the summer, cutting off my shortcut through the college to the bus stop at the front of the campus. I've had a few close shaves, having to dash around from the back. Since I wasn't able to leave Rowan at camp before 8.45, the only bus I could get to work was at 9.08 - of course, most of the time we got to the camp late anyway.
Sym's continuing to need visits to the vet - his check up seemed to go okay yesterday, but he's not passed any solids since Saturday, maybe Sunday. So they want to see him again tomorrow to monitor him, which is a PITA as I'm supposed to be meeting up with my colleagues for a team meal, followed by bowling. I can still make the bowling, but I'd have to miss the meal to make the appointment. I'm keeping an eye on him, and if he does manage to go, I'll call and reschedule for monday *crosses fingers* The vet said it would be okay to do that, if he does.
Anyone have any good recipes for feeding cats that need a bland diet? Other than baked chicken fillets, Sym's not touched anything I've offered him all week.
*sighs* Rowan's camped out under a duvet on the sofa again, watching Nick Jr Classics....if I ever see another episode of Rainbow it'll be too soon - I stopped liking that show when I was a kid. Kinda amusing to think the poor sod who hosted it is now driving a taxi - though I feel mean about feeling that way.
