Cassie got a bad result from the lab yesterday: a mild giardia infection. It's a good-news, bad-news thing: The bad news, obviously, is that she can't go to day camp (meaning I can't spend a full day in my downtown office) for at least a week. The good news is that she's mostly asymptomatic, unlike the last guy. So we just went to the vet again, got another $110 bill for dewormer.
But at least she wasn't crated for three hours with her own diarrhea. Poor Parker.
In other good news, bad news stories today:
- A 77-year-old man shot Slovakian prime minister Robert Fico in what authorities call a political attack.
- The New Republic has a heartwarming series today on "what American fascism would look like." Enjoy.
- Washington Post art critic Sebastian Smee reacted to King Charles III's official portrait the same way I reacted to Parker's bad butt all those years ago.
Actually, they're all bad-news stories. Apologies.
