So the doggies went to the vet to get their teeth cleaned yesterday. Since they have to put them under to do it, they do a blood test first. According to the test it wasn’t fully likely that Callaway would wake up afterward, so only Shelby got her teeth cleaned. For whatever reason they did further blood tests, Callie’s kidneys appear to be failing :-(
So this is what live blogging is like...
I gotta hand it to you, John (or better yet, your campaign managers).
- You waited less than 12 hours (!!) to quell the enthusiasm of Obama's speech to announce your VP pick; I've seen vultures work slower than that. You go steal those headlines, John! Show them how politics is about the people, and not just a game!
- Your pick is a plain-spoken (anagram pun intended), middle-aged female governor from Alaska who shares a name with one of the funniest Monty Python members. Kudos on your successful Hilary-cloning experiment, John! And nice touch picking a brunette... nobody will catch on to that one!
- Not only does your VP pick come from a state whose capital is Juneau (totally boss), she's got a son in the military! Take that, Obama! Michelle, you better ship one of the cute little girls of yours off ASAP.
Standing up to 'politics as usual,' eh? You show them, John. You show them exactly what we are trying to get away from.
Got into New York last night, Jason and Michelle met me at the airport. The city is surprisingly like Minneapolis/St. Paul. We went walking around to hit the liquor store, which was closed. Ended up with some Miller from the gas station and playing Mario Kart Wii.
Today I took my first subway ride and went to Rockefeller Center. Neat area, but much smaller than what it looks like on TV. We proceeded to wander around and look at places: the M&M Store, Nintendo World, Virgin, and MOMA (Museum of Modern Art). We had lunch at some little place that had a ton of food and EXCELLENT pizza. Dinner was at ESPN Zone.
