Had my spinal block done today. This will not be repeated, even if it works. I think. Depends on how well it works. If it really really works, I won’t need to consider another. Got up a little after 6...

A couple of funny things
Spot is back to normal still, and I’ve been able to pill him three times in a row, both pills at once, and he has swallowed them instantly! Yes, I am a master. Of course, now that I’ve bragged,...
