An Update

Bailey is doing so much better.  She is scutching for food, jumping up on our bed under her own energy, is purring madly, and even gave me nose kisses.  She still is very weak and has some anal leakage (due to the fact that she is still weak?).  The latter I can live with as long as I still have my Bailey Baby and she is happy.  She definitely has the quality of life that I want as she really does seem to be content and even did the "Butinsky" routine this afternoon when Bear and I tried to cuddle. 

As I said: guarded optimism.

Years ago when I first started teaching, I was always given 8am classes.  Why?  Because no full-timer in their right mind is willing to teach that early.  The best and brightest students go for the post-9:30am classes.  This means, the 8am classes are the last to fill and the students who do fill it are the least motivated ones out there.  Namely, they were too lazy to register in advance which means they got stuck with the only class still open: the 8am one.  Even when I was a student I avoided that time slot like the plague.  However, my Russian classes were only held at that time and it was a three day a week class.  8am on a Friday is just pure evil.  An 8am Ru...
