Spawn spent the day yesterday at the school we'd like them to be able to attend next year as part of the interview process. When Mr. and I came at the end of the day to speak to the admissions head and pick up spawn, we had teachers they'd spent time with coming by to tell us how much they loved having him, with one saying, "I hope to see you in the fall!" to spawn in front of Mr. Admissions Head.
I am trying, trying not to get my hopes up because of the rejection we had from a school in December. It's so hard because everything seems to point to them really liking spawn. I cannot stand the waiting, nor do I feel I could bear having them rejected. Put me out of my misery, already.

We will keep our fingers crossed ‘til next fall.
Well, it’ll supposedly be soon… I’m hoping by this Friday. Until then, I’m existing in a state of extreme anxiety blunted by substances.
Pissed. Dinner reservations for a date w/ Mr. for the first time in many months and our sitter was a no-show. So much for relationship-building and checking out the new beer bar.
Sleepy, tired and with a sort of heavy head feeling headache but moderately relieved. Last night around 2 a.m. Lion vomited quite a big blood clot. I petrified for a moment. He was behaving normally, even cheerful though. I stayed awake with him until 6.30 a.m. to make sure nothing wrong was happening. Had some sleep, then tried to call our vet's office with no luck. I thought that they might not work at all or only afternoon because today is a day between two public holidays. So I went there myself, without Lion who was feeling great, counting on I don't know what really. Miraculously behind the door with a note "we're closed today" I spotted our vet cleaning up a huge pile of papers with one of her employees. She told me not to worry too much if it doesn't happen again and Lion feels well but also scheduled us for some tests on Saturday. So I've got next weekend sorted. My little plushy predator is showing no signs of anything wrong and I want it to stay like this forever or at least for the next 20 years.
But I don't see And I don't feel But tightly hold up silently My hands before my fading eyes And in my eyes Your smile
I mistook stars reflected in a pond at night for those in the sky.

That sounds pretty traumatic, I’m so sorry. The vet’s nonchalance kind of surprises me, but they’re the pro. Hopefully it was a fluke. At least kitty seems fine now. Hope you get some better rest tonight.

Thank you for your kind words @notkristie I had a moment at night when I wanted to go to 24/7 vet emergency but I decided not to panic. He really felt fine. I examined him as much as I could and didn't find anything else disturbing. It didn't happen again so I was sure there was no massive bleeding. The vet told me that it might have been a blood vessel which blew out during the effort of violent vomiting.
I know she will do all the tests really needed. And either I'm not willing to do any complicated procedures as gastroscopy without a real reason because every visit at vet's office is very stressful for Lion, not to mention a procedure requiring anaesthesia. He always had many problems after such events. He is extremely delicate, with much more poorer health than his sister. And of course the meds he is constantly on because of his epilepsy don't help.
The other thing is that most vets over here don't rush unless the thing really looks serious. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it is not. It also depends on the size of the practice. My vet doesn't have a big clinic with all the gear but just a smaller one. However, I must say that in bigger places I felt treated like a piece in machine and had much more objections.
For now I'm observing him closely and he seems to be in a great shape. I think I won't go to work on Thursday, which will obviously be a problem for my owners. Oops sorry, my employers, bosses, whatever

Crossing my paws for you all! Oh I hope this works out!!

Thanks see much. We still haven’t heard and between that and Jordan Neely my nervous system is a mess.
