An Interesting Day

Yesterday I called my friend CS to tell her I bought some stuff for her birthday and I wondered when I could bring it by. We planned for that evening; shortly after getting off the phone I realized that perhaps the stuff was not in my car. True to form, I had left it at home.
I was presented with a couple options:
Call CS, tell her I'd bring the stuff by some other time.
Go home (i.e. the one hour drive north, one hour drive back) to get the stuff.
Buy her something else.

I didn't want to call off the visit; it would cost me $5 to drive home and back (besides wasting a large portion of my afternoon, and time is money); so the semi-logical decision was to buy some more stuff for about $5. And that's what I did, aside from some aberration on the $$.

I ended up spending the night at her place, and found out (to my enjoyment) that I still talk in my sleep -- and, furthermore, that I can respond to questions. I am told that I said "Would you stop that?" CS said "Stop what?" and I said "my youth group". I still don't know what dream it went along with.

Today I signed on as an alternate in the vet school Hood to Coast team. Crazy, yeah, but it'll give me something more to get in shape for.

Today we had large animal surgery lab, from which I derive an unusual amount of enjoyment (I like surgery and I like working with hoofstock).
We castrated our pony and set a half limb cast on one of its legs. The castration was complicated -- our pony was too young and/or too small for the method we used. He survived nonetheless.
