Hi...
It's been kind of a weird hectic week for me -- I'm still trying to catch up with all kinds of things. One major accomplishment was that I finally managed to make Puff a new batch of Repashy Grup Pie -- we were all out. I'm planning to let my husband cut it up to the size and shape that he thinks it should be because he's been complaining that it doesn't fit in Puff's mouth, even though he's gotten way better than I am at slipping it in there. Puff really likes it but he gets too excited about it and he's a klutz.
Don't blame yourself about Capaldi's cyst -- or your vet, for that matter. You never know for sure what's going to happen with stuff like that. Not even the best vets have a "crystal ball." You've probably read about Deb's beardies (SweetiePie9, if I remember correctly) Gabriel and Imp -- Gabriel had a huge aneurysm and was expected to die any minute, and Imp was really skinny but was putting on weight and getting better, and then Imp up and died all of a sudden, and meanwhile Gabriel's aneurysm miraculously disappeared and he's still alilve. You just never know. :?
I'm afraid Puff will probably lose his appetite for greens at some point once he's done putting his weight back on, if all continues to go well. He usually gives me "the look" before he dives into his salad like, "Hey, I'm really hungry -- are you going to feed me some bugs or am I going to have to make do with these yucky greens?" He's back up over 400 grams, my husband says 460 -- he seems to have an easier time reading our hokey little 20th century scale than I do -- it's not digital.
Lately, Puff likes butternut squash too, like Broly does, but he doesn't seem to be able to get a hold of the little cubes by himself. My husband has figured out how to feed it to him during his
bath. He has to "squash the squash" into his mouth. :roll:
I had a chance to see Jurassic World #1 on TV not too long ago, but don't know if or when I'll get a chance to see #2. I'm furious with our telecommunications service provider at the moment, and we may end up dropping the cable TV (which would probably mean no more Dr Who for me
) -- looong story. Bottom line: my husband is planning to shop around for another service provider, and if we find something better, they've lost a customer. There aren't many options here in Alaska.
Anyway, I've liked all the Jurassic Park movies except maybe for Jurassic Park 2 -- it seemed a little bit like a cheap imitation of King Kong, only with a tyrannosaur instead of a giant gorilla. The critics thought that Jurassic Park 3 had a "creaky plot", but I liked it anyway.
Isn't it fun trying to figure out what's going on with a beardie's underbelly? Poop, shed... My worst mistake was seeing something hanging out of there after a
bath and a poop, and I mistook it for a penis plug and tried to pull it out, but it turned out to be a partially still attached shed, and Puff was NOT amused... Sorry about that, little guy.
Puff is still working on a very stubborn nose shed, and his tail looks like a shedding disaster area, although as far as I can tell, no real damage is being done to his tail, at least not so far. It's just taking forever.
I suppose your weather is pretty warm this time of year, so hopefully Broly didn't get too chilled by the window.
Yeah, I can relate -- come home from a Jurassic World movie and your beardies look like little dinosaurs. "Indominus" would be a really big name for a little beardie. :lol:
Maybe Blue is living up to her name :wink: , but if she's been mistreated she can probably learn to trust her new humans with your good care. Glad to hear that Kane and Jamie and Eren are all doing well, but sorry about the little gecko -- you've had too many deaths in your family lately -- I hope you'll be able to treasure the memories and cherish the ones you still have.
One good TLDR deserves another, huh? :mrgreen: I guess I should go put the Grub Pie in the fridge -- it should be cool by now.
