Sabrage + Boys + Dull Knife - Skills = Mess

You have GOT to be kidding me

Okay, so we have been back to new orleans less than 3 months. Last weekend we had a "tropical storm" hit the city and we got rained on pretty badly. With the anniversary of Katrina on friday, Kevin and i were planning on taking our labor day break and going over to Houston to visit mom. Well thanks to Gustav (what a fuckin' name) it is looking like those plans are definately goin to change. Tonight we are having a pow-wow between all the medical professionals in our family to decide who is taking the dogs and high-tailing it out of town. Which almost always ends up being me. Off to plan for a hurricane, keep your fingers crossed for us.

By way of pictures

I have begun a puppy blog and updated with new pictures http://dogimusprime.blogspot.com/

if you're interested

Welcome

So some of you may not know that Kevin and I are welcoming a new edition to our family. Our new child will be arriving on Wednesday. I figured I would debut him to the world here. Everyone this is "Colorwork's More Than Meets the Eye" or "Prime"

Umm...ouch

Yeah so apparently the kid who had the javaline through his leg took this picture. Pretty impressive i think.

Update

Well as you all know from Dr. Shouldagonetolawschool's blog, it has been pretty busy around here for the last week. Last Saturday was her graduation, when she officially earned her MD MPH & TM...yes she gets that many letters. Much pomp and even some circumstance. Sunday we had a party at Teather's house (thanks you guys!) and it went very well considering all the different personalities we tried shoving into one room together. So that was good. There was this



much crawfish (actually there was twice that much, we made the crawfish man go mid-party and cook some more) and a good time was had by all.

A day later, back in the Thib., we were trying to convince ourselves to be useful and start to pack since we are moving on the 15th of June. That's when the fun started. Apparently, Kevin was walking down the stairs when the kitty decided to chase him. This usually is not a problem, however, on this particular morning the kitty misjudged his trajectory and tripped over kevin's foot. He also disobeyed the famous cats-always-land-on-thier-feet axiom and fell on his side on the corner of the bottom step. Again this wouldn't have been a big deal except the cat started to favor that leg and when kevin picked him up to check on him and touched his leg it went CRUNCH. "Shit..." so we call around to all of the vets in the area and finally get an appointment with our normal vet for a few hours later. He takes an xray and it turns out it is a spiral tib-fib fracture. In other words, the cat has managed to break both of the bones in his bottom leg and because of the nature of the fracture will need surgery to insert a pin. So now, we have a kitty who is 1/4 shorn and not to happy with a wicked set of stitches.





And I still have to find a job and pack the house so we can move!!!

Congrats

I felt the need to say congrats Dr. Shouldagonetolawschool. Heather has officially finished medical school!!! Nice job, it sucked but it's over now.
