Okay, so I confirmed that UND received my job application. Now there's nothing more to do but wait, on that particular job. It's about a week and a half before they start looking at those apps, so it will be a little while before I could conceivably hear anything from them. *crosses fingers*

In other news, I finally broke down this morning and signed my cats up on 1-800-Pet-Meds. Provided the vet's office confirms the prescription, I should be getting Tookie's meds in the mail tomorrow, which is so much better than having to take the bus over to Greenfield after work. I am still going to have to make the trip soon, however, as I really can't let Thor go much longer. He's still eating and drinking, but this weekend he's started pooping anywhere rather than using the box, and there's blood mixed in. It's such a hard decision, and I know I've been waffling for a while about it, but I won't be able to do that much longer.

In other, other news, tomorrow is election day, here in PA. I think I won't be answering the phone tonight, as all the calls I received over the weekend were campaign related. There have also been some door-to-door folks as well. Tonight, Obama is speaking at the Peterson Events Center, and I'd be interested in hearing him speak in person, except that he doesn't start until 9:30 pm. No way I'm dealing with the buses trying to get home after that.

Hes a determined little guy, keeps on kicking, so maybe he'll last a little longer.

it was pretty interesting to hear Obama in Philadelphia, I was up there to shoot the rally and stuck around to listen in. He's charismatic, that's for sure.

good luck with your kitty! ((hugs))

Thanks. Once again, as soon as I start making noise about the vet, his worst symptoms disappear. So maybe he'll last a little longer.

Hugs and best wishes to you and Thor! Is there someone who can give you a ride/accompany you for that dreaded vet trip? It's a tough thing to do alone.

In retrospect I'm kind of glad that we only had a weekend of being the next primary. It sounds like you've had nearly NH-level campaign attention this year!

[auntiemeesh.livejournal.com]

It's been more intense than usual, I must say. But I've voted, the polls will close soon, and then that will be it for a while. :D

[ani-no-mouse.livejournal.com]

any update on Thor?

[auntiemeesh.livejournal.com]

Not really. He's tricky, as soon as I start making noises about putting him to sleep, he stops doing whatever is making me think it's time. So despite the fact that he started pooping all over the place over the weekend, he hasn't done it since. He is getting weaker though. I noticed this morning that he jumped up onto the edge of the tub and then just looked longingly at the sink, rather than jumping up to rub against the faucet (one of his very favorite things to do).

Aha! Sounds like the word "vet" might be sufficient to get him to improve his bahvavior!

I'm so sorry that Thor isn't doing so well. {{{{hugs}}}}

Good luck with the job!
=D

Thor is holding on, still, at least for the moment. *crosses fingers*

[lyda-pearl.livejournal.com]

sorry to hear about Thor, it does sound like the end is near for him.

[auntiemeesh.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he's holding on for the moment, but he's not looking too good.

Hey there - just wanted to let you know, colleges are notoriously slow about hiring, so don't give up hope if you don't hear anything for a while. I mean, keep applying elsewhere, if elsewhere has jobs, but - srsly. Colleges are slow.

*hugs*

[auntiemeesh.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I've had experience going through the college hiring experience. Complicated, last time, by being a state position. It was an eye-opening experience.

I'm sorry to hear that Thor isn't doing well *big hugs*

I hope you'll get some -positive- news about the application soon!

[auntiemeesh.livejournal.com]

It will be a while before I hear anything, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I will hear something, eventually.
