Nutmeg updates

elusivekSo yesterday we decided, enough was enough. It was the 4th day that Nutmeg wasn't eating, so we brought her to the vet. The vet was rather worried that she's not eating. We even gave something that he calls "McDonald's for cats!" That he claims ALL cats will eat, but Nutmeg did not eat. That's why the vet decided to keep her for the night.
I already missed that cat, darn it. I couldn't easily fall asleep, so I just tried to let my mind go blank, and eventually I slept.
It's Friday, it's supposed to be my day off, but I went back to work (very late though, and dressed very casually) to get some work done. It's impossible to do. I'm not a project manager. I understand the concept of a Gantt chart or Critical Path, but I don't know how to build one. Also, I have never arranged for this kind of project, I have absolutely no idea what to list. The boss wanted 1 particular item. I tried to ask someone that's of that area of work, and will participate in that project as well, and he goes, "It's not just that 1 item. There's still this this this this this and that!" And I just about had to give up.
Managed to get more Christmas presents when I went out for lunch. Now all the ladies' presents are done. I only have the guys' presents. Three for the cousins, two for the uncles, and one for the dad. I can get suspenders for my dad. I used to give a nice bottle of wine for the uncles, but now everyone's old and sick and can't drink wine. Cousins I want to find something that's useful but economical. Worst case scenario, all guy cousins get a box of expensive chocolates.
Then I went for the company Christmas party. They gave me a tag number, but didn't put any markings on it, so I had no idea whether it was a number 6 or a number 9. Since I have no luck in anything, especially lucky draws, I focused on the eating (that place did a mean French Toast)
They drew for a $2000 cash prize. They drew exactly the 6 or 9. So originally whichever that number that was would have gotten $2000. But 2 people came up (me and another guy). So they decided to just split and we got $1000 each. Pity.
Anyway, I got a call from the vet during the day saying Nutmeg was finally eating (after giving her all the good, stinky, expensive stuff and rejecting... the vet said she is eating.... kibbles... dry food!)
So I left the party early and went straight to the vet to pick up Nutmeg... overnight stay, new bag of dry food (that she eats), $1065. Well, at least that prize came in handy.
And I have Nutmeg trying to sleep over my neck and suffocating me to death. That's how I can fall asleep now, LOL!
