The Cadillac has been returned to me, with a shiny new water pump and various hoses/belts. Hopefully, she'll stop acting assy and beginning driving like a normal car for me. Because I can't take this shit. My father and I have made the deal that he will pay the mechanic and I will pay him back slowly, whenever I get the extra money. Still don't know the total, however. And once it looks like the car's going to remain ok, we're going to start working on restoring it entirely.
The Bad:
Simon, the Golden Rat Who Can Do No Wrong, has a tumour, a very small one.
Jesus. I can't get a break, can I?
The Doesn't Make Any Sense:
I'm so thirsty, it's starting to make me feel queasy. And the only thing helping is absolutely ice cold water.

Date: 2005-11-18 03:53 pm (UTC)I don't remember when I last had blood work done, mostly because I haven't had health insurance in over two years. But, I frequently under-hydrate myself (despite the thousands of pounds of ice I require). I'm going to try and drink like a normal person today and see how I feel.
As for the rat tumours, it's something very common with them. Rats are highly prone to getting them, I've just never had to deal with it before. It's only a very tiny one right now, thankfully since Simon is a wee rat, but as soon as I get paid, I'll be taking him to the vet.
