>I got my COBOL test back today – 65, not bad considering I didn’t remember I had it until it was too late to study, planned on getting up early and looking at it before the test… and slept halfway through the period. I got in just in time to take it really quickly… and got what I got. I certainly earned the 65… just made me sad. He’s insulting. Early on I tried really hard, attempted to answer his questions, but a few wrong answers, some humiliation in front of the class… and his not letting it go resulted…

>I buckled down (sorta) and got to my COBOL today. I leapt the hurdle of assignment 2, attempted # 3… and ran into the same freakin issue I got last time. It’s at a point where it can’t give me any good info, either. I just have to go step by step through the variables and make sure my “write variable1 to variable2.” statements aren’t taking a letter (or uncleared garbage in memory) and trying to add with it, or trying to put a larger variable into a smaller area. It’s great when it’s going well, but debugging is a…

>The Sad Cat Blog

>I’ll just change the name of this thing to The Sad Cat Blog. No good news regarding Franna. I brought her home today, but she’s still sick. They gave me the option of a feeding tube – putting a hole in her neck, then sliding the food right down into her belly — “uh… no thanks” I’m not going to keep my cat alive if there’s obviously something wrong with her enough that she can’t eat, can’t drink… I tried just dropping water on her nose, she licked it off… that only worked for so long. I can’t get her…

>I stopped to visit Franna before work, I’d hoped to see the Dr, but he wasn’t available. I’m not sure if they did in fact do the X-Ray or the Ultrasound yet, but they gave her some medication to stop the nausea and they’ve been giving her fluids. She was really alert and aware when I got there, almost wanted to jump out of the cage, but she relaxed and was much more up and about then yesterday. So she’s certainly getting better, I’m hoping that she just needed something to be able to get back up on her feet…

>No Good News on the Kitty Front

>I just heard back from the Vet — blood work came out negative for any kind of virus, infection, or parasite. She could have an ulcer… or some other form of growth. There’s not really anywhere else to go from here other then an X-Ray and Ultrasound. Even if they do find anything with the X-Ray, I can’t do a surgery – much as I want to. If there’s nothing conclusive after the X-Ray, then I just bring her home and that’s that. I was on the phone with a customer the first time he called – had to get…

>Ms. Franna Goes to the Vet

>I just had to bring my kitty into the hospital for the night. She’s been real sick the past few days, not eating, being really slow… you can just tell she’s not feeling well. I brought her in, they offered to keep her for the night, give her some liquids and hopefully get her eating again. They kept trying to get me to agree to X-rays, but I want to see how all the other tests come back first. I feel so bad leaving her there – she knew she was in good hands though, and I’ll be back by…

>I’m tired today — but it’s OK. I’ll deal, I’ll sleep later. I’m behind in COBOL, it’s official. I’m going to hand in my half-done assignment 2 and see what happens. I’ll be able to work on it after I’ve handed it in, then get him the finished copy ASAP. I’m hoping it’ll at least buy me time. I can’t take the test for assignments 1, 2, and 3 without even having handed in 3. I spent a long time today trying to gain some insight into 2 very beautiful ladies. I can’t say they even had the remotest interest…
