You're right, though -- Basil <em>can</em> be a drama queen on occasion, but not <em>nearly</em> as princessy as Hopper! As for the White Team, well, duh! I'm not white! Thought you had that figured out by now! :mrgreen: Hel<em>lo!</em> I'm <em>Orange!</em> I know a lot more people on the Blue team because some of them sub for us when we're short on skaters, so I feel more comfortable when we share ice with them. Plus, they're the intermediate team, you know. Not all advanced and shit. :smile: How'd you find out about the DVD? Are you one of their MySpace friends? :lol: mama, you always know how to cheer me up! You’re right, though — Basil can be a drama queen on occasion, but not nearly as princessy as Hopper!

I just need to start eating better -- how fun is <em>that?</em> I'm trying to keep my spirits up about both our conditions. Brian just called the vet to see how long we have to give Basil fluids, but she isn't in today, so I imagine we won't have his lab results 'til at least Monday. Ah, well. :smile: Thanks, DB.

Maybe it's because we may not be able to control what's wrong with our health, but we can at least understand it. Not only can animals not control their health problems, they don't understand it, either. For example, Basil doesn't understand why we've been sticking him with a needle every other night. You know? Admittedly, I'm still worried about playing tomorrow night, but I'm also glad I'm playing. Even if I don't do a great job, at least I'll be out there and doing my best. You know what, <strong>jane?</strong> You CRACK me up, too! :mrgreen: You know, I do, too.

I hope everything is okay with Basil. I have a more difficult time hearing about animals being sick than humans. I'm glad you're gonna play hockey this weekend, it's so therapeutic for you. Kind of how I am with swimming. It's our escape, but a healthy escape. :) LOL @ getting your ASS out of bed! Heh, you crack me up... So much is going on with you!

I just hope his test results aren't too bad. As for the other thing, it had been under control for so long now -- since the spring, at least. I can't believe I'm having problems again. Yeah, I haven't been eating as much fruit and vegetables and high-fiber stuff, so I'm hoping that's all it is. It could be that I might need another shot of medication (it doesn't hurt, though -- just some liquid the doc shoots up there). Well, hopefully things go OK for the game tomorrow night; I think they will. I don't care what the doctor said; I'm still taking Ex-Lax tonight, just in case. I'll try to start eating better, too. No fun, what with Halloween just around the corner! Anyway, I hope things improve soon. I <em>am</em> lucky to have Brian and friends like you, too. :) Hey, Holli.

You are stronger than you give yourself credit for.Going to that game when you don't feel up to snuff takes a really big effort. I'm happy Basil is feeling better,I missed the main part of his ordeal cause you know my heads up my ass half the time. :lol: I wish I could wave a magic wand and make all the problems go poof. Hang in there.I think you are great! :wink: Oh dear Barb,so sorry about the poopy problems,I can’t imagine how that would feel.Thank God you have Brian to help when you need it.
