Anaesthesia x 2

This Friday was super busy. We took Rosie to the vet to get fixed, and then I had to go to the dentist to get a cavity drilled in preparation for a filling. We had really long waits at both the vet and the dentist so basically the whole day was gone. I did get some funny pics though. Take a look...


Sho-chan clowning around with Rosie before we went to the vet. She loves to jump up, so when she jumped up on me, Sho-chan hugged her from behind and we got a silly picture.


When I went to the dentist these were the toilet-slippers they had. "Always a delightful surprise", indeed. I tell you, if there's one place I don't want a surprise, delightful or otherwise, it's the toilet...


After Rosie came out of surgery, they gave her this collar to wear so she wouldn't lick her stitches; in Japanese it's called an 'Elizabeth collar' [cool] or an 'Animal Necker' [uncool]. Of course I had to try it on too, being the big 'ol dork that I am. What do you think? Goes rather stylishly with my blue turtleneck and white hat look, no?

Goog Afternooner!

Omigod! That collar is SO stylish...and huge! No wonder Rosie gave it to you to wear.
Hope Rosie gets over her discomfort soon.
I tried enlarging the picture of the bathroom slipper wrapper but I still can't make out the words at the bottom. Are they "super planning"? And if so, why??? Is that a brand name? The only surprise I ever got in my slippers was some cat kibble that mice had stashed there...

I think it does say 'Super Planning' but I'm not sure. I'll check when I go back to the dentist next week.

I have to admit I was a more than a little peeved at the wait there, though. I had to wait 40 minutes for a 20 minute treatment and that was WITH an appointment!

Hi, this is a great blog. I just moved to Japan from New York...quite near Sanda (English conversation teacher too). I saw you know a lot about sumo wrestling. That`s cool. I`m hoping to see a match this March in Osaka. If you don`t mind me asking, what is a good day to see a sumo match...and is it still fun if you get the cheaper Arena seats C and D? Thanks! My addy is newyorked at gmail.com.
